Since I'm taking over for Alex for a bit, I'll confirm that I have read through that page. It's been reasonable helpful, along with the similar page on the incubator website. I think I have a handle on the steps, but will certainly ask if I find that I'm confused or need guidance! > 3.

Great pointer. I'll structure my personal space similarly today. Also, I'll use that same structure for the actual release dir (once we get through the voting process).
