Ok, let me tell u a little background. I will try to tell the story from my point of view and hope I will not blame anyone. When I started using Lenya I was aware of Lenya being under incubation. When I was voted as a commiter I still was aware that LEnya is under Incubation. We talk about a time frame of 6 months and I never saw discussions about the IP and I was not subscribed to any incubator lists because I did not see the need. While I started caring for the release I saw that the IP was a bit "unmaintained" and that it is very important to maintain IP if we want to do a release or exit incubation. To be honest, I never thought that it is an option to leave incubation _soon_ . I think I learned my lessons about incubation and I'm sorry that I have not cared about incubation before. So, why do the release before exiting incubation? I can not really answer that question, it depends on how long the decision making process will take and we _need_ to release (_we_ are ready to release). I agree we also need to exit incubation. I would very appreciate if the incubators help us to decide whats best for us. -- RolfKulemann "There is inherently no silverbullet" - F.Brooks --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
