Hey guys, can we move these kind of discussions to a new thread? This was the original vote thread and it might be hard to keep track for those that wanna vote. Feel free to do ;-)

In order to change it, an affirmative VOTE of the IPMC is required. And it's hard to get a vote through... See [2] and [3]. > > "the Podling's Mentors become members of the Incubator PMC (should > they not > already be one)." > -----------^^^ > Also, can "one" refer to "they" in english?? Should it be "that" > instead? 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?
