  Reviewing this, the document you added a link to contains bugs.
 
 Yes, there are many issues with Incubator documentation.
 Thanks for detecting some of them.
 
 Procedures have been changed, so documentation needs to
 catch up.
 
 Every committer has access to these documents.
 
 I will continue to fix things bit-by-bit and still encourage
 people who have been through the process to help fix this
 documentation to make the path better for those who follow.
 
 At the moment i do not have time, and i am expecting others
 to do this.

No-one did. So i have made time to do some. Would someone else please do the 
rest.

  Specifically,
  http://incubator.apache.org/guides/mentor.html#Set+Up+Repository is
  wrong (it contradicts 
  http://www.apache.org/dev/infra-contact#requesting-podling)
  and http://incubator.apache.org/guides/mentor.html#request-mailing-lists
  is bitrotted (list addresses in the example are wrong).
  
  I didn't check whether there are other bugs besides these two.

Please remember to post [CANCEL] notes for cancelled votes

2013-04-19 Thread Branko Čibej
The voting status script relies on them to update its tables. Currently
there are a number of votes flagged as out of date:

http://people.apache.org/~brane/incubator/votes.html

however, many (if not most) of them were actually cancelled, in some
cases replaced by another (successful) voting thread.

I originally wrote that script because it was often quite hard to figure
from the mail archives which votes were current. If vote proposers don't
make the effort to manage the voting threads, the script ends up being
useless.

Thanks,

  Could you provide a good example from any other project so we can take a
  look at it? To take a grasp of how we should do it. We'd like to have
 it as
  good as the LICENSE file (also, the incorrect year in NOTICE was also
  pointed by Siegfried, but not as a blocker, so it's fixed in trunk).

 The ASF now has documentation which describes a formulaic approach to
 creating
 LICENSE and NOTICE.  If you follow the recipe, you should be OK.
