There is one thing that I think would be useful in

side. I think that no matter what, unless overruled
by the board, the Incubator should vote.
It was presented to the Incubator PMC that when another PMC has
voted, we
don't have that option. I'd like to see a determination from the
Board if
that is to change.
I will still say that if another PMC has voted, that unless they also
provide a Member or Officer to provide oversight (not necessarily
from that
PMC), that the request is invalid.
I see the Incubator as a gatekeeper almost. PMCs,
in general, don't have an idea of the number of
podlings within the Incubator, the "load" that the
Incubator (and Infrastructure) is currently handling,
etc. They have no need to. I think the Incubator
would best serve the ASF if we/they had the
ultimate authority to vote on, even if the PMC
approves a proposed project, acceptance.
