Agreed. That’s why i hope some clear official documentation to be polished, rather than scatter in every apache project :-) BTW, in order to help our guys, we also arrange 2 articles in website about apache PR best practice[1] and distribution process[2] following our mentor justin guidance endeavor in many apache projects. and continue to polish these guidance. I hope we can offer help or feedback If official documentations need to be polished in these points.
