Note the wording: "should".
Sometimes 72 hours is just too long, especially
for security related releases. In that (or any other
special) case RM can call for a shorter, or even
longer window.

I found it. In the svn asf-authorization-template
the wave entry was missing one part of its config:
http://incubator.apache.org/guides/mentor.html#Set+Up+Repository
it was missing the third entry.

Not sure how long its takes for an automatic update
to propagate. Any done in r784788

All,

Since posting the Lucene.Net Incubator proposal announcement on Jan
12th, we now have three mentors signed up and would like to call a
vote to accept Lucene.Net into the Apache Incubator.

The proposal is included below and can also be found at:

Please cast your votes:

[ ] +1 Accept Lucene.Net for incubation

= Lucene.Net - A .NET port of Lucene =
== Preface ==
Lucene.Net is a sub-project which is being spun off from the Lucene
TLP but is not yet ready for graduation. We propose to address certain
needs of the project by transitioning to an Incubator Podling.

== Abstract ==
Lucene.Net will be a port of the Lucene search engine library, written
in C# and targeted at .NET runtime users.

== Proposal ==
Lucene.Net has three aims. First, it will maintain the existing
line-by-line port from Java to C#, fully automating and commoditizing
the process such that the project can easily synchronize with the Java
Lucene release schedule. Second, it will be a high-performance C#
search engine library. Third, it will maximize its usability and power
when used within the .NET runtime. To that end, it will present a
highly idiomatic, carefully tailored API that takes advantage of many
of the special features of the .NET runtime.

== Background ==
Lucene.Net, began as a independent project focused on creating a
line-by-line, API for API port of Java Lucene to C#. It continued
successfully in this way and eventually became a ASF Incubator project
in April of 2006 and graduated as a sub-project of Lucene in October
of 2009.

The last year has been challenging for the project. The committers who
originally lead the project have stopped maintaining it and
development has stagnated since June of 2010. The user community has
spoken out requesting a change in philosophy and direction for the
project, but those requests have been unheeded. This has led to a
number of forks outside of the ASF. We would like to bring those forks
back in as branches and be responsive to the needs of community
without the need for multiple non-ASF forks.

The Lucene PMC wants to see the project continue to thrive and has
indicated that a return to the Incubator is an appropriate step, with
the end goal of building a new team of committers and maintaining a
steady release cycle meeting the previously stated goals. Because
Lucene is working to move away from being an "umbrella project", a
long term goal of the Lucene.Net project is to graduate to an ASF TLP.

== Rationale ==
There is great need for a search engine library in the mode of Lucene
within the .NET runtime. Individuals naturally wish to code in their
language of choice. Organizations which do not have significant Java
expertise may not want to support Java strictly for the sake of
running a Lucene installation. Developers may want to take advantage
of C#'s unique language features and the .NET runtime's unique
execution and interoperability model. Lucene.Net will meet all these
demands.

Apache is a natural home for our project given the way it has always
operated: user-driven innovation, lively and amiable mailing list
discussions, strength through diversity, and so on. We feel
comfortable here, and we believe that we will become exemplary Apache
citizens.

== Initial Goals (to be completed before Feb 2011) ==
  * Build a new list of committers
  * Make a 2.9.2 compatible release as quickly as possible (this
already exists, it just needs to be packaged correctly)
  * Update website, documentation, etc.
  * Create a well documented repeatable and fully automated language
porting process
  * Start a ".NET style API" branch, either by incorporating some or
all existing fork projects or by starting a new branch to this end

== Current Status ==
=== Meritocracy ===
We understand meritocracy and will fully embrace this concept in our
project management methodology. One of the proposed committers, DIGY,
has been a committer on the current Lucene.Net project since November
2008. Prescott Nasser has been a contributor on the project,
submitting patches, documentation, and website enhancements. Three of
the other proposed initial committers, Troy Howard, Chris Currens and
Sergey Mirvoda are both already actively involved in other open source
projects, either as committers of code or in coordination roles. Troy,
Chris, Sergey and Prescott are currently committers on a Lucene.Net
fork known as Lucere, and as such are intimately familiar with the
code base and share a vision for the future direction of the project.
Scott Lombard and Michael Herndon are passionate about Lucene.Net as
well and have already contributed significantly in terms of project
organization and direction and discussions on the mailing list.

All of the proposed committers are familiar with the challenges faced
with starting and maintaining a p

Makes sense.  Kevan just pointed out this page to me

I think we should reference it in the PPMC "how-to" page.  How can I update

Sorry, I should have looked at this. I'll need to dig more, because you
*are* in the incubator group - I saw it when checking your CLAs were
present. So there's something else going on.

Can you confirm what URL you are using, and what error you get?

I've always considered weekends fair game. In fact, that may be when
some people have the *most* available time to see a vote request.

72 hours means you get both weekdays and weekends, and you get all
timezones, and anybody that might be in-transit and needs to get back
to things, or just general busy-ness. But I don't think special
consideration for weekends needs to happen.

Voting waiting period

[Alan D. Cabrera]

It's my understanding that all voting takes place during a 72 hour period.  If 
that period ends on a weekend then it's customary to wait until Monday to 
complete.

I don't see this documented on http://incubator.apache.org/guides/ppmc.html.  
We may also need to explain that all correspondence on behalf of the PPMC 
should cc the PPMC private list.

Thoughts?

Re: [Wave] editing incubator documents

We have access to the wave SVN, but it seems like we don't have access to the 
incubator SVN.  According to this document:

http://incubator.apache.org/guides/mentor.html#Set+Up+Repository

We should have access to the incubator web site SVN.

I can't actually view the authorization template file it mentions to see if 
that was done, but it appears that it may not have been done.  Either that, or 
there is something specifically wrong with my account.
