I've been following along the absent mentors discussion. But I'm curious, from both an IPMC member's perspective as well as a member of a podling, what roles do you see for a mentor? What are their responsibilities to the podling?
We have a few things written down, and I'm not too interested in rehashing the written version. But what do podlings need from their mentors? Point you in a direction to run with? Do the apache work for the podling? Do we (the ASF) need mentors to ensure that podlings are operating within certain bounds? Do we rely on mentors to be a read of the pulse of a podling? John
