No one needs to be on the Incubator PMC because they are an active contributor. 
 They should be on the Incubator PMC because they care about Incubation, and 
Mentoring one or more projects.

Experience.  I do not want to put an artificial restriction on whom the 
Incubator may select as a Mentor.  We have had EXCELLENT Mentors who have 
performed their role with distinction long before coming an ASF Member.  And, 
likewise, Members (even a Director or few) who have gone AWOL while they are 
supposed to be Mentoring.  So while I do see where you are coming from, our 
real-world experiences do not support your perspective.

The decision is still a human one.  We, collectively, have to make a decision 
on each individual.
