Incubation is about growing community. Our only goal at this phase is to determine that community and meritocracy can be established, moving forwards, with the group of initial contributors, and that the project's appeal would increase the diversity. But, once again, nobody's answering the crux of the question, only blowing more wind. Can the proposal be modified to be less employer-centric, or does it need a different home to achieve the goals of the contributors? Do the initial contributors/participants understand they are participating on behalf of the project before their employer? Do they plan to be around when they move on? If so they will make great participants in the project's PMC. For those that don't, ethical considerations suggest they should plan to remain committer / contributors.
