Hi Willem, Good point. I suppose the current incubator- prefix doesn't give more information than the "incubator" words itself.
Thus, trying to merge the inputs above, I made a third candidate: * https://github.com/apache/incubator-fury/pull/1574/commits/2ac9d808af75d17c0ea74a9755fe165b13de15f2 That is, keep the first and most prominent uses in form "Apache Foo (incubating)" and add a hyperlink to "incubating" to the DISCLAIMER. This should be a shorter solution and at least as good as the incubator- prefix. Ensuring the repo description contain "incubating" can help. I'm going to prepare a patch on the incubator website to review the wording we'd use before next week. Best, tison.
