My perspective, the entire IPMC cannot hope to mentor every podling and so that 
task is assigned to mentors.  Now, since there is no accountability for the 
mentors we have shepherds to monitor the mentors; if we always had fantastic 
mentors the relatively new role of shepherds would not exist. 

Now, we must monitor the shepherds.  Effectively monitoring the monitors who 
monitor the monitors who monitor the podlings…

We are placing our focus on the wrong problem, jmho.
