Ok, thanks. The questions in the status file are in line with the information I was looking for. We should link to or include the text of STATUS at <http://incubator.apache.org/process.html>, since process.html claims to provide that sort of information, but provides substantially less detail. As far as I can tell, there's no direct link or mention of STATUS on http://incubator.apache.org. > The vote will pass when the people responsible for incubation are > reasonably satisfied that the task is complete and recorded for > posterity.

The process.html document implies that the rough timeframe should be known before the process is initiated. Should that not be the case? > ....Roy -- - Rod <http://radio.weblogs.com/0122027/> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
