<snip/> +1 to all your points.
Personally, I am less than happy at seeing yet another large project proposed from a corporate source (and IBM at that), along with a dozen new committers who have not earned their merit at the ASF as most committers have. I feel the ASF is losing its way, and becoming a repository for corporate open-sourcing along with taking on responsibility for building communities around corporate code bases. I suspect I'm in the minority at the ASF, and I'm undoubtedly in the minority here in the incubator. But there doesn't seem to be a way for the incubator to say "no thanks", other than by a podling failing the incubation process, and that seems wrong to me.
+1. And rather than a minority, this looks more like a silent majority to me.
