in the last few weeks that has been a sharp uptick in activity at the incubator as people try to figure out just what the requirements and policies *are* -- and should be. at this point, it appears that absent any official statements, the podling's mentor should be the one watching this most closely and most able to report on condition and progress. others may disagree, but that's my personal view. i *believe* the mentor for both pluto and wsrp4j is sam ruby. i do know that both have entered the incubator. the inclarity of that status information is, i believe, partly due to the dearth of solid process guidelines, and partly due to the fact that the incubator web site is about fifty times harder to keep up-to-date than it should be.
