Okay, thank you both for the clarification. Just out of curiosity, when would the Board be the Sponsor?
If, for example, the board privately negotatied the movement of a project from it's old home, after it privately appealed to the ASF for consideration in the incubator. This would be a very rare, very exceptional occurance. Also, perhaps the president has a project for the ASF's own infrastructure under his jurisdiction, and decides that it should be a project rather than an infrastructure effort. Mostly, it's a project with a related interest, or defaults to infrastructure's pmc if not. Bill
