My personal preference is to have incubated sub-projects use mailing lists and websites within the TLP containing a notice header that the project is under incubation (and may die). My understanding is that you feel having the email address containing the word "incubator" will warn users, and I believe that we can achieve the same (or better) with a mail footer that contains the notice. Note: we already have footers automatically added to every email.

Regardless, my desire for consistency vastly out weighs my arguments above, so if the this policy change is approved by the incubator community, I would like to see all mailing lists (with the exception of the few that are about to graduate) be changed to @incubator.

To what end?

since it's so easy to move them, should we move the latest projects coming into incubator to @incubator?

If the list is relatively new, then yes.

It would seem silly to do this to a project that's been around 6 mos+
and is nearing graduation (or the -other- alternative disposition).

The current approach is to put the mailing lists under the domain of the TLP into which it was expected that they would go, and THE REASON for this had to do with the difficulty of moving the mailing lists and the eyebrowse archives. HOWEVER, Roy has since written a script to move mailing lists, and we no longer use eyebrowse. And unlike the prior setup, it is fairly
straightforward to redirect an old archive location to a new one.

THEREFORE, new mailing lists should be created under the
@incubator.apache.org domain, just as all of the other project resources,
e.g., the web site and SVN subtree.
