SVN at

and if there are no issues with doing this I would like to formally
tag it and request a vote by the IPMC.

Any comments before I do so?


What about using 'incubator' or 'incubator-parent' for the  
artifactId

(instead of just 'parent')?



incubator would probably be the best


I have no strong preference, this just seemed tautological as the  
groupId is already org.apache.incubator




My rule of thumb is generally "be able to tell exactly what it is by  
looking at it". I don't want to have to open a text editor to know  
exactly what it is. Just like I don't want to have to crack open the  
manifest of a JAR to see exactly what it is. Given that proviso maybe  
"apache-incubator", or "apache-incubator-podlings". Though we don't  
have a guideline for parent POM naming I generally use the project  
name as all the other artifacts in the project are an extension of  
that i.e. maven-core, maven-artifact ...


Other examples are the top-level 'apache' pom,(which you might  
want to

define as this pom's parent, if only to show the project hierarchy,)


I thought it was better not to do this as this pom is intended to  
be used as a parent by podlings which do not have official Apache  
project status. Maintaining a distinct hierarchy seemed clearer.


With this in mind, how about "podling-parent" for the artifactId?
