Cool. I think we've generated some consensus, even if we haven't answered every question. To summarize, I'd like to change this paragraph of the report:
"Again a reminder to all incubating projects and mentors that all releases made available to the general public need to be approved by the PPMC and IPMC. This includes docker, githubb, PyPi, npm and any other platform for publishing releases, and also covers release candidates. If in doubt please ask your mentors or on the incubator general list." To this: "A reminder to all incubating projects and mentors that all releases and distributions advertised to the general public need to be approved by the PPMC and IPMC. This includes docker, github, PyPi, npm and any other platform for publishing releases, and also covers release candidates. Nightly builds for project-internal use clearly marked as "snapshot" or "prerelease" (or similar) can be made available to project contributors. If in doubt please ask your mentors or on the incubator general list." Objections?
