+1 for a move to Incubator, rather than a TLP, as Math now needs to find its new ground and direction, and in particular grow its active developer base.
The incubator is great for reducing the distance for moving from contributor to committer, and for letting everyone get a say in what direction you are moving. The role of the incubator mentors is to help you build the community, and while it's not always fun to get reminded about what is missing here, the process of the incubator forces the community focus (who are we) and not just code focus (what does it do). Obviously you can do that straight as a TLP as well, but I think given the fork happened, Math needs to grow more slowly back into shape, and the Incubator should be good for that. I agree on trying to write an Incubator proposal and start discussing it on general@incubator.
