Awesome!
These days, the Sponsoring Entity is rarely anything other than the Incubator.
It means that a TLP other than the Incubator has voted to take charge of
incubating the project, supervising mentoring and monitoring progress.

If the Any23 PMC has such plans, let's talk -- otherwise, it's great to
see this proposal receive support from members of the Any23 community!
There is some question as to whether you're also signing on to be a Mentor in
addition to taking the Champion role, Lewis. The proposal wiki page changed
several times this morning but currently lists you as both. What's your
status?
I feel like one more formal Incubator Mentor besides Rob Vesse would make this
a very strong proposal. Rob is extremely capable, but a first-time Mentor
shouldn't have to be the only one listed and the community has related that
giving outsiders formal roles will help them in their outreach to other RDF
projects.
This is going to be a fun and easy job. Sergio is deeply committed, Andy is one
of the IPMC's best, Benedikt has signed on to represent Commons, and the
sophistication of the emails in this thread speaks for itself. Who's in?
