I'd like to oppose this. (Sorry)
I'd like us to all step back and take a look at the bigger picture.
Apparently, the root of this is a statement that something about the incubation process of Lenya raised hackles. I suggest that there may be multiple root causes for this.
Putting incubator as a part of the name is a form of disclaimer. One that is relatively expensive. I, too, would rather we explore cheaper alternatives before we decided to require this for every project.
It seems to me a disclaimer on the website, perhaps also in the root directory of the associated CVS trees, and a process which prevents any official "release" to be created by projects in incubation should be more than sufficient.
Sorry, but this has not worked.
I knew that many did not want renamings to occur, being touted as "expensive", so I still stand behind my last proposal (that has been trimmed here) which seems to me like a possible "compromise":
1 - the websites are placed in
incubator.apache.org/projects/subproject
2 - these projects have as project logo the Incubator Logo
3 - They all have as a bottom line disclaimer a note that the roject
is in incubationNote that point 2 and 3 have not much to do with infrastructure, and point 1 is not under direct control of this list, as the project members would still have access to the incubator-site module, as part of the project.
