All projects need to go through the incubation process, but not all are sponsored by the incubator PMC, many are sponsored by an existing PMC outside the incubator. I don't recall for sure, but I'd expect that woden entered the incubator after being sponsored by the WS PMC (at least, that's how things tend to work today if I understand correctly, it's quite possible that woden predates that practice, I'm really not sure). -garrett --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
