what if incubating mentors would abuse their powers to interfer with the
normal evolution of Apache incubation projects.
What is "normal evolution"? For that matter, what are the mentor powers that you are speaking of here? Mentoring is a burden, not a power.
I think that mentors could write off-list mails to possible committers
and discourage them to committ to a incubating projects. On the end this
mentor could recommend to the possible incubating committer to work on a
*NON* apache project instead of the incubating project.
THAT WOULD BE A VIOLATION TO THE APACHE WAY TO DO THINGS!!!
Well, it might be -- it really depends on why the mentor is suggesting such a thing. For example, if someone were to try to contribute GPL code to an Apache project, my response would be along those lines.
Is this a rhetorical question, or do you have some specific example in mind that you want corrected? Keep in mind that mentors are human too and they sometimes make mistakes.
