Hi,

I was just wondering if it would be a good idea to ask projects a few questions 
of committers/PPMC members once they leave the incubator to gauge how we are 
doing and find out where there is room for improvement? It would be simple to 
try as a proof of concept on a couple of graduating projects to see to we get 
any valuable feedback that we don’t normally get on this list or in the podling 
reports.

Some suggested questions off the top of my head:

Thinking about the project that you have just graduated as part of:
- I am a X committer X PMC member X mentor X none of those X rather not say
- How many times have you gone through the incubation process: X one X two X 
three X more than three
- Have you felt supported by the incubator? If not what could be improved?
- Have you felt supported by the your mentors? If not what could be improved?
- Did you run into any issues with any part of the incubating process? If so 
what?
- Was is clear what you needed to do to graduate?
- What, if anything, could be done to make the graduation process smoother?
- Is the time taken to graduate X too short? X just right? X too long?
- Do you have a good understanding of the Apache Way? If not what areas are you 
unclear on?
- Anything else you want to add or comment on?

Probably best if answers were anonymous. Anyone have any ideas for other 
questions or improvement to the above? I’d like to keep it under a dozen 
questions.

Thanks,
Justin
