Hi! based on a recent thread inspired by observing some of the podlings, I'd like to kick start a discussion around making an amendment to our Incubator policy: http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Incubation_Policy.html
It feels like we're missing one important part to the whole process -- a fair criteria for addressing podlings that are unlikely to make it to the TLP. Ultimately, the incubator is the place where we teach the projects to do two things: * effectively manage releases * effectively manage the community To this end, I'd like to prose a very simplistic criteria for a potential retirement from the incubator: unless both of of the following applies project get put to a retirement IPMC vote: * there has been a release in the past 12 months * there has been a bona-fine change to a community structure in the past 12 months Do share your thoughts. I intend to put an amendment for a vote next week. Thanks, Roman. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
