I'd say "Upon acceptance by the Incubator PMC, the Podling's Mentors who are not already members, become members of the Incubator PMC." This needs to be a bigger change than one paragraph. There used to be a mentor, but based on recent discussions in the Incubator, at least three Mentors are recommended. But there's not been a change to the Incubator policy or guides to reflect this. So you (or your designate ;-) will need to change a few places in the Incubator in order to make it consistent. And then file an issue in JIRA and call a VOTE. If you're going to be in Amsterdam for ApacheCon, we could get a quorum of Incubator PMC and get some things done at the Hackathon. Maybe advertise it as an Incubatorthon?
