This comment by Craig is the most important one in the discussion. When the first words that people pick when disagreeing are essentially personal insults, what is going on is better described as mud wrestling rather than discussion. On Thu, Jun 20, 2019 at 5:01 AM Craig Russell wrote: > ... >

Honestly, I don't know. I agree that Github++ might not have been the best term but as I said: I didn't think this through to the end. I guess (all of this is a bunch of unfinished ideas) what it boils down to is that we can do the incubation outside of the ASF. I didn't even think about what

Good effort Bertrand that's definitely some discussions we should have and ease incubation! To be honest I'm mentoring some projects but sometimes I'm out of motivation due to the huge number of nitpicking tasks/requests. I perfectly understand people reactions when they try to go trough the

Hi - I agree with Greg and Bertrand to focusing on the Incubator's service orientation. And have written in other threads that we should update our documentation. A podling exit needs to be visible to the Incubator here on general@. (Jim’s clear trail) (1) In order to maintain a record about

My only comment here is that the Incubator performed a legal action in accepting Zipkin; in doing so, Zipkin enjoyed some level of ASF services as well as legal protection. To dissolve that 'relationship', there should be a clear trail of intent and action in doing so, not only by Zipkin but
