IIRC, the issue involved the notion of "partial committers" in subversion -- http://subversion.apache.org/docs/community-guide/roles.html#committers There were objections over the notion of "partial committers", not about the individual. I don't view subversion as a particularly good motivating example of why the Incubator is or is not broken. Subversion was unique from the very beginning... In general, I agree with in Noel... Would add that IMO, incubator oversight has helped release processes (and general foundation knowledge) for many projects, not just those who have been through incubation... --kevan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
