The PPMC concept should not stop at the Incubator door.  It can be a
solution to the "umbrella problem", which is what Berin will try in XML.
The Lenya PPMC, for example, would become a subcommittee of the Cocoon PMC
when Lenya leaves the Incubator, with the Incubator PMC dropped out.

The PPMC is not a mechanism to teach Sam the "The Apache Way", but used as I
am describing it above, it would provide a structure for the Jakarta PMC to
teach "The Apache Way", and to help alleviate oversight issues.
