Re: Some instructions are misleading on mentor page
Hi, I agree this could be clearer: "Mentors MUST be on the IPMC. This should be checked prior to beginning incubation. Any prospective Mentors who are not yet on the IPMC should ask to be added (by election). Email the application to priv...@incubator.apache.org.” How about this: "Mentors MUST be on the IPMC. This should be checked before beginning incubation. Any prospective Mentors who are not yet on the IPMC, and who are ASF members, should ask to be added. Email the application to priv...@incubator.apache.org. Any prospective Mentors who are not ASF members or IPMC members could be voted onto the IPMC by the IPMC in the normal way, but unless the proposed Mentors have been active in the Incubator, this is unlikely to happen."

Some instructions are misleading on mentor page
Hi - The instructions here [1] are misleading. (a) An ASF Member who is not on the IPMC may be added via “application” (b) Non IPMC members who are not ASF Members do NOT file applications. Instead they are nominated, secretly, by an IPMC member and voted on by the IPMC. There is no assurance that an application is accepted. I’m looking for others to suggest the PR.

Re: New distribution guidelines
Sharing some thoughts about this particular question. The intention of the guideline is to clearly distinguish the Apache from non-apache ones (to protect apache's brand). There are a few ways to achieve so: - W0: Change the release note to indicate the tag is non-apache - W1: Change the release title in the github page to include non-apache or pre-incubation - W2: Delete the original tag and create a new tag with pre-incubation suffix (note that many projects might use tag that follows semantic versioning). W0 + W1 already serves the purpose pretty clearly, as users who browse the github release tag page would clearly get the information. As Ovilia mentioned, W2 might create some disruptions for users who wish to use pre-incubation releases and makes the transition less smooth for the podling. It might also create confusion about the software's history as some project might expect the tag might need to follow semantic versioning. Not requiring W2 might be desirable to make the new podling transition smooth while also protecting apache's brand(via W0 and W1) TQ On Sat, Oct 10, 2020 at 2:23 AM Ovilia wrote: > Hi Justin, > > I have a question about the guidelines. > > > Any releases that exist before coming into incubation need to be clearly > described on the release page and tagged as such on > > Does this mean that we need to change the tag/release name from something > like "4.1.0" to be "4.1.0-non-apache-release" or "4.1.0-before-incubation", > or just add a notification in the description that this is a release before > incubation? > P.S.
