Personally, I think the vote that took place to move Math to a TLP should now be considered void since the proposed PMC no longer exists. Furthermore, at the moment Math doesn’t have a sufficient number of participants to make it a viable candidate for the incubator IMO. That may change over the next few weeks as people volunteer, but until that happens I find the idea of pushing to be a TLP to be as foolhardy as Gilles’ proposal. FWIW, I really have no interest in Math other than to make sure we don’t kill it by doing something ill-conceived.
