Nicola,
I suppose the only slight reservation would be who is accountable? The old "Fred Bloggs is looking after that" can kick in. I think the Incubator PMC also wants to be able to hold people accountable for inubation activities. Gets harder with multiple people.
If the accountable person fails, what can we do? Nothing.
Replace them!
Too late, the bad is done. I want to minimize the possibility of it happening.
I understand you point - but I think you focussing on the wrong place. The single point of accountability is IMO an important criteria - instead - I think what you should be looking at is the framework within which that reposibility becomes drop dead easy based on a framework of support.
As a simple example - the process description establishes a sequence of events with responsibilities on a project to move itself out of incubation. The process will involve actions by the Mentors and the PMC and we don't these actions to be slowing down the works. An important aspect here is visibility of status and pending actions. This takes me back to the discussion about using JIRA - that's the sort of example where I could checkout open-actions on any incubator project - and based on that information I could jump in and help out. That results is greater community contribution to the process - less overhead oper Mentor - etc. etc. I.e. think more about facilities to enable members of the community to facilitate the exit of project under incubation.
Cheers, Steve.
