Hi -
We could better spend our energy looking at podlings with Mentor problems and
deciding which of three possible states fits the podling.
- Failed - no community is trully involved and there is nothing an active

All we care about is that the podling has an active mentor who knows when to
ask for support and gets that support when they need it.

Following that statement to a logical conclusion, all
pTLP adds a great deal of overhead to the board unless there is a review
process somewhere else. I've posted on this before so will not repeat here
beyond summarizing as moving responsibility for the problem does not fix the
problem.
I'm not seeing how this proposal fixes the problem either.
Chip is correct. The tools we use in board meetings make it easy for us to see
how many PMC members in a TLP resolution are members. If there are not enough
we will sometimes put the project on an informal watch list (as well as
ensuring appropriate people from the PMC go on the members watch

Is this pretty close to IPMC in another name?
No it isn't.

What problem
An ASF release needs three binding +1 votes (I see you say two but in your
proposal but that would require a policy change in the ASF which I doubt will
happen). If there is only a single mentor approaches the IPMC to ask for those
votes. As a single active mentor on projects I have both asked

I would recommend to remove that particular line about mentor staying
as mentor sake.
Either mentors join in as full fledge PMC (and as committer) or not at all.

Yes, Benson. You should take it as a compliment that if the board invite you to
do remain and you agree then they trust you to be their eyes and ears, and if
necessary the person they turn to in order to investigate a potentially issue.
That's different from the mentor role in the IPMC though.

Members should look to the board to enforce policy, not define it (Though
Directors are members and will be involved with the definition)
This disagrees with much that the Foundation has published. In example:
