the guide sounds like it's an improvement
Or one might argue that it tells some complicated
things to cover a case without real significance.
I've found [1] in the archives, which indicates
that the policy used to allow officers originally.
The guide says that an officer-not-member champion
needs to be on the PMC of the sponsor. If the
sponsor cannot find an ASF member to champion a
proposal, maybe the sponsor has more important
problems to deal with.
so the best approach would
be to create a patch and start a VOTE thread to get the change
approved.
I'm still wondering where the discrepancy comes
from in the first place. Maybe I'll do some more
archive digging next week. But I might prepare a
patch for the broken links in the "Exiting the
Incubator" section of the TOC :-)
cheers,
Roland
