I dropped d...@subversion.tigris.org from the distribution. I was addressing just the Incubator. It was NOT intended to be a teaching experience, but a wake-up that I believe some of the Incubator's purpose has been lost along the way. > Or perhaps that using an argument based on authority is a good strategy? I am going to be sending an official "Waiver of release" for vote to this list. That email will contain a rationale for my request. I also intend to request a jump straight to subversion.apache.org for some of the items (e.g mailing lists). Again, there will be a rationale. So yes: I *do* intend to use solid arguments, rationale, and plain language for the purposes of Incubation. My rant was not about Subversion's incubation but about how this group has become misdirected by the path to the Almighty Checklist. > Not very good lessons either. Please kindly step off the soap box... I will continue to raise points where I think the Incubator has become misguided from its true purpose of helping (not hindering!) projects into the ASF. Will my tone be proper? Maybe. Maybe not. But I stand by my email.
