I agree that the DISCLAIMER-WIP should refer to the status page, but the current disclaimer https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/INCUBATOR/New+Incubator+Disclaimer also has a free-form section for a list of known issues. "What follows is a list of known issues the project is currently aware of..."
I think that the free-form section should also be generic, and refer to the JIRA or github issues for the podling. Something like https://github.com/apache/<podling>/issues or https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/<podling>/issues After looking at a couple of podlings, I now understand that it is difficult to construct a definitive link since each project has its own way to track issues. But I also think that editing the DISCLAIMER-WIP file should not be the first choice... Maybe we should require that any podling that has DISCLAIMER-WIP issues must also have a page with known issues. This page can itself refer to jira or github but it has to be easy to find. How about https://<podling>.apache.org/issues.html which itself should be linked from https://<podling>.apache.org. The page should have prominent links "Issues to be resolved before the next release" and "Issues to be resolved before graduation". If the issues are organized well in the issue tracker, these links can be fixed links that don't need to be edited for each release. https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/<podling>/issues/?filter=graduationblockingissues and https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/<podling>/issues/?filter=releaseblockingissues I can already hear the voices "the incubator is too heavy handed". But the incubator is allowing the podling to release with known issues, so I think it's a fair compromise.
