Hi, As discussed in the "overzealous bureaucracy" thread, I suggest changing the text on the http://incubator.apache.org/ homepage to present the Incubator as a service provider for podlings.
I think the current description can be understood as the Incubator being a"stern gatekeeper to the ASF" and that's not good. Defining the Incubator a service provider will give us a documented basis to adapt our tone and processes if we (or podlings) notice that we're being a stern gatekeeper again, as has happened in the past. If people agree with the general idea we can discuss the details of the new text at https://github.com/apache/incubator/pull/12 if needed. I suggest using this thread more to discuss (and hopefully approve ;-) the general idea of this change. I'm planning to merge #12 in the next few days unless someone from the Incubator PMC objects. -Bertrand --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
