+1 IIRC the incubator doesn't have any documentation addressing the communication side of community building. i've been reluctant to tackle this in the past (since it's even more subjective than the rest) but i wonder whether some podlings don't understand rules aimed at helping them build a strong and open community. i've created a JIRA (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INCUBATOR-70) so that people can add tips or longer prose. please feel free to jump in and add comments. once there's a critical mass then we can try to pull together some prose so don't worry about the style - just get down ideas. - robert --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
