> The currently document is contradictory. 
> http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Incubation_Policy.html#Champion 
> includes a little discussion of the role and implies that only champions can 
> be members. 
> http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Roles_and_Responsibilities.html#Champion
>  uses declarative language and allows members and champions. This isn't good 
> and needs resolving one way or another.
> Elections championed by Officers have succeeded in the past and I see no 
> reason why Champions should not be officers though this may - or may not - 
> prevent then acting as mentors. So, this patch consolidates the documentation 
> in that direction. I'm willing to create a similar patch if the converse 
> opinion is in the majority.
