I don't think it's an imposition or a burden to remind people that as a podling they have responsibilities to the incubator. And if they see that they're not even on the page, it might catalyze some positive behavior.

Hi, Does aynone have an opinon on this? If we agree that there's a problem, we might at least create a jira issue to remind us to fix it when someone has time. -Bertrand On Thu, Jun 26, 2008 at 8:01 PM, Bertrand Delacretaz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:Hi, With my (shiny new ;-) board hat on, I'm following up on a a concern expressed at yesterday's board meeting. It seems like the schedule of incubator podling reports to the board,as well as the list of incubating projects at [2] is not very reliable- probably due to the well-known "redundant and scattered metadata" problem. For example, it seems like Pig had never reported before, althoughit's been incubating for a few months, as it was missing from the wikireporting schedule page [1] (*blush* - I'm a mentor for that project...). Recent discussions also show that Rat is missing from the incubator home page, and the status of Composer seems unclear. Having a master status file and generating the reporting schedule, project status overview (including mentors names) might be a nice way to have a traceable single point of maintenance for this data. And/or maybe deriving part of this info from svn setup and authorizations. Assuming there's agreement on the problem, do we have any volunteers for working on that? -Bertrand [1] http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/ReportingSchedule [2] http://incubator.apache.org/--------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
