I think this is beeing rushed, and the process looks diferent then the process for Tapestry into incubator for example, where there was a public vote; and I think Incubator had a process documemented someplace.

i think that there are a few differences (that should be noted for the record):


1. tapestry applied for entry to jakarta. there is a very high barrier which projects who wish to become part of jakarta have to pass. (if i understand correctly) geronimo is a board level initiative which will become a top level project.

2. tapestry lacked active support from apache members.

3. tapestry was the first.

FWIW i think that tapestry has become a stronger projects due to this baptism of fire. i also think that it's unfortunately that the incubation took so much energy that could probably have been more effectively spent elsewhere.

i do agree that the incubation process needs to be improved and documented.
i also feel that it's important that all incubatees follow the same process (even though for some products this may just be a formality).
