All,
We need a resolution before we can do the vote on incubator
general. The text is pretty boilerplate, but make sure that I got all
of the spots fixed and got all of the names right. I've removed Arun
Suresh and Phillip Rhodes since they haven't participated in the
project while it has been in incubation.
