At one point, we had people becoming members of the Incubator PMC by virtue of being a Mentor or by virtue of a vote of the Incubator PMC. Did that change? This language implies that the Mentors must be pre-existing members of the Incubator PMC.
Is there a reason why we are saying "chosen by the Sponsor". In practice, candidates often troll for Mentors in order to complete the proposal, the Sponsor affirms the proposal drafted by the Candidate, which includes naming the Mentor or Mentors.. The language about reporting to the Sponsor makes it sound like there are two types of status reports. Why not just suggest CC'ing any status reports to the Sponsor's mailing list. -Ted.

If this works for you, I can post an updated patch and re-vote.
