There is no reason for a project to have a final destination until it has to go somewhere other than incubator, at which point it can decide whether it wants to be a TLP (calling for a board vote) or part of an existing project (calling for that project's pmc to vote). Maybe we should have a six month limit on incubation, where the result is promote or punt.
We have no way to measure the worthiness of a project before it has even started, and generally speaking we are MUCH MUCH MUCH better off if a project gets started in Apache rather than on sourceforge.
I don't care if there is some overlap with Wagon, nor do I care for any further discussion about which one is better -- if I can't find some objective criteria for evaluating software, then I obviously don't need that software. Once I need it, I can figure out for myself which one is better -- I don't need someone to assume that for me. It is easier for Apache to support both projects than to arbitrarily choose between the two.
