[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INCUBATOR-10?page=comments#action_12362831 ]
David N. Welton commented on INCUBATOR-10: ------------------------------------------ I would put TLP's as the most likely sponsor *if a project would fit*, then the incubator PMC, then the board, as a last resort. I think I would link the 'sponsor' section, but also explain the actions to be taken at that point, for anyone doing things step by step. Otherwise, it looks pretty good to me. > Incubation_Policy.html should specify to use the Incubator PMC > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: INCUBATOR-10 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INCUBATOR-10 > Project: Incubator > Type: Improvement > Reporter: David N.

A Sponsor may be one of: > * the Board of the Apache Software Foundation; > * a Top Level Project (TLP) within the Apache Software Foundation (where > the TLP considers the Candidate to be a suitable sub-project); or > * the Incubator PMC." > Although in practice it appears that the Incubator PMC is the preferred > sponsor for projects that would end up a TLP. The site could say something > like this: > Where a top level project is not an appropriate sponsor, the Incubator PMC is > the preferred sponsor.
