Another, or complementary, way this could be done is to work out the pros and cons on a spreadsheet. This would not take the place of a vote, but would provide some useful insight into the opinions that the community has with regards to various aspects of each proposal. http://s.apache.org/reboot <http://s.apache.org/reboot> People who wish to contribute their opinions can send an email to adc at apache dot org and I will add them to the list of editors. There is a Pros tab. Here people can add columns that represent an advantageous aspect that a proposal should cause. It doesn’t have to apply to all, or any, of the existing proposals. There is no limit to the number of advantages aspects added to this tab. Each row in this spreadsheet, this tab specifically, is for each person to indicate using 0-5 how important they feel that particular advantageous aspects are to solving the Incubator’s “woes”. There is a Cons tab. Here people can add columns that represent an disadvantageous aspect that a proposal could cause. It doesn’t have to apply to all, or any, of the existing proposals. There is no limit to the number of disadvantageous aspects added to this tab. Each row in this spreadsheet, this tab specifically, is for each person to indicate using 0-5 how relevant they feel that particular disadvantageous aspects are to solving the Incubator’s “woes”. The above two tabs will represent what the community thinks are good things and bad things to do for the Incubator. Then for each proposal there is a corresponding Pros and Cons tab. These are for people to indicate how strongly they feel that certain advantageous or disadvantageous aspects apply to specific proposals using 0-5. All of this data bubbles up to the summary tab.
