As soon as you step off your soapbox, be sure to provide some suggestions... And what *exactly* IS the role of the Incubator now? I suggest it's to oversee the Mentors, as well as do the initial OK for entry and the final approval for graduation (well, not "approval" but recommendation). Is the entire Incubator sooooo busy that someone from the IPMC can't ping "delinquent" mentors directly, when they get off track, or too far backed up, ??? Would have sending an Email be soooo problematic? But, I guess, it wouldn't have been so dramatic. And yeah, I'm guilty about the voting stuff for the initial release. That's why I'm doing better following it now. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
