2. should the information be machine readable? IMO, yes.

I like, I think, all of this to be in the STATUS files, putting everything in one place per project, rather than needing to update both the STATUS and incubator-info.txt files. We could then eliminate incubator-info.txt . But am open to other views. The goal should be to eliminate the redundant data, and generate artifacts from a single (optionally, per-project) canonical source. This could tie in well with projects.apache.org.
