I'm with Benson here. But we do need to acknowledge the problem identified (again) by Branko.
This is a mentoring problem not an IPMC problem. The IPMC needs to solve it for existing podlings, and podlings where mentors have gone quiet but we need to express higher expectations of mentors for new podlings. Branko, talk to your mentors. If that fails talk to the IPMC.
