to the podling and the incubator pmc, to see that everything gets done and done properly. similarly to the foundation, with the additional responsibility of only sponsoring a podling which, in the member's judgement, will be an asset to the asf.
From this I can draw the following conclusion:
A Member, acting in the capacity of a sponsor of a podling, has certain responsibilities towards the podling and the Incubator PMC.
Here is an initial attempt to detail said "certain responsibilities":
Responsibilities of a Members towards the podling -------------------------------------------------
* to liase between Apache Administration and podling
on matters concerning CLA submission and aknowledgement * to liase between Apache Administration and podling
on matters concerning infrastructre suport (mailing
lists, CVS, account establishment, etc.)* to assist the podling on matters concerning the
resolution of license transfers, copyright assignments,
and/or software grants where applicable
* to provide where as as appropriate, guidance on matters
concerning Apache policies and practices, including the
establishment of its internal steering committee
Responsibilities of a Members towards the Incubator PMC -------------------------------------------------------
* to notify the PMC of the completion of CLA submissions
* to provide updates to the PMC on the status of license
grants (where and as appropriate) * to provide on request the PMC a summary of the progress
and status of a podling (including recommendations for
continuation, termination, or exit of a podling from the
incubation process)Are there any Sponsor reponsibilities that I am missing here?
What I am aiming at is a summary of everything a Member should be aware of when accepting the role of Sponsor, the set of responsibilitiues that a podling can expect to be provided by the Sponsor, and the expectations from the PMC towards the Sponsor.
Stephen.
