for IP clearance, i don't see how the IPMC is able to do anything other than just check the documentation: a pure paper exercise. we have no choice to trust that the PMC has read, understood and followed the instructions. whilst this remains the case, i'm not sure what would be gained by actively voting. if this isn't good enough then a different process is needed
Not to beat a dead horse but if this is the case, then what "benefit" does the Incubator provide to the ASF in this case? None. Why have the Incubator involved at all if we basically say "Yeah, yeah, if you say so, it's fine with us." Either the Incubator has this responsibility, or it doesn't... IMO, due diligence, at least to me, implies a bit more than "well, nobody complained" :) In any case, I vote +1 for mod_wombat clearance.
