I noticed that you think the incubator PMC is responsible for doing the *work*
of incubation. That is a false assumption. The Incubator is a place where new
projects can be incubated. The contributors to the Incubator are those
people who want to accomplish incubation. Anyone can contribute. The PMC
exists solely for oversight of the process, not to implement the process.
I'm pretty sure _nobody_ thinks the incubator PMC is responsible for doing any actual incubation work, except for setting out the guidelines. Pardon me, but if they fail in doing that, and in the mean time prove to be counterproductive by shielding away documents from people who are actually helping incubating projects, well....
What kind of guidelines would you like to see?
What specific activities do you consider counterproductive, and how do you propose we improve them?
(If you don't have CVS commit, ask for it. In the mean time, post patches if you see something that needs changing. The fastest way to get commit to *any* ASF project is to post so many patches to the development list that the committers can't keep up and eventually just give you direct access. :)
