Seems a reasonable starting point. I took the liberty of putting a generic version of it on the Wiki: http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?ExitingIncubator. I don't agree with each item, or at least give them equal weight, but I tried to preserve them pending discussion. - Legal I didn't see any that struck me as optional. One thing not present was vetting the code to make sure that there are no IP issues. I suspect that the Incubator PMC is accummulating experience on legal issues to expand the checklist. - Meritocracy / Community Some are more subjective area, but I largely agree with your points. Not sure, though, what you have in mind with respect to [EMAIL PROTECTED] And there would be more items in the event that the podling is to be a TLP. - Alignment / Synergy I am a big fan of eating one's own dogfood where possible. It helps to improve the taste and quality. And builds stronger communities. - Infrastructure Looked right, but subject to change as the infrastructure evolves. Also, not everyone is easily tied into the web of trust. I haven't physically seen an ASF participant in close to a year. I suppose that Dion Gillard and I can sign each other's keys when we see each other in another month. I don't know whom else will be there. But that's a minor point. Reading some of the incubator STATUS files was instructive to see what problems have occurred. --- Noel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
