Or/and the existing mentors could concentrate more on helping the podling they
handle to become a TLP and not stay in the incubator for too long.
Even if that sometimes requires becoming more a PITA to the podlings that are
sort of living in the incubator forever ...
And in the end we should also think about releasing (in the sense of kicking
them out) podlings that are obviously not actively adopting the Apache way. (Of
course after a quite large grace-period)
After all we mentors are investing our time and therefore we could also expect
them to work on their end.
If they don't, we could then invest the time we are wasting on them on other
projects that might be more in need of active mentoring.

The tricky part in all of this is that it isn't the podlings fault if
the mentors don't engage.
We need more engaged mentors per podling. The obvious solutions to that
are recruit more mentors (where from?) or accept fewer podlings (seems
unfair to prospective podlings).
I think the IMPC has some tough decisions ahead.
