There is a natural similarity between ASF membership and the tasks
undertaken by mentors, leaving the authorisation issues aside.

What _IS_ required is that all mentors be Incubator PMC members. While
any ASF member can become an Incubator PMC member just by asking, others
do so (relatively infrequently) as any normal PMC - an existing PMC
member proposes them and a vote happens.

There will still be some tasks (e.g. handling ICLAs) that they wouldn't
have the permissions to handle, but their vote would be a binding one on
releases, committers, etc.
