Cool, that addresses my concern of having all mentors with the same affiliation. > > I'm very encouraged with the level of support we are getting for this > project. However given all the offers, how much is enough vs. too much?... In terms of number of mentors? IMO having six of them, although unusual, is not bad, but it's good to designate one of them as the champion as per [1], including keeping an eye on things once the project gets going, as would a PMC chair do. This helps avoid things falling through the cracks, as each mentor might think others will do the work ;-) -Bertrand [1] http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Roles_and_Responsibilities.html#Champion see "during incubation" --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
