FWIW, the first few sentences are a pastiche drawn from various policies and Roy emails[1], while the chunk on security is me elaborating on a concern Roy expressed about trojan horses and can presumably be improved. For now, I suggest adding a blob to the Incubator's giganto releasemanagement.html page. That's not the ideal place for it, it's just a placeholder so that it doesn't get lost. The thing is, Apache's release policy docs are about to get a significant streamlining[2]. I think info like this belongs in an official _Release FAQ_, but that doesn't exist at the moment. The closest thing we have is the official _Releases Policy_ page at <http://www.apache.org/dev/release>, which I don't want to mess with right now.
