Sounds like a throwback to the early days of the Incubator when I hear there was only one Mentor per podling. :) +1, go ahead! The podling will probably have a comparatively easy incubation, since several aspects are already taken care of. Not having to deal with IP clearance makes things much simpler. Depending on how quickly the new community masters the Apache Way, incubation could be over within a few months. I don't see any problem with what you've proposed as far as reusing existing resources. We might not make such exceptions every time, but they seem fine in this unusual case. It's nice that there is minimal impact on Infra. > I feel a bit alone with my proposal. Given the size of the IPMC thats a bit > sad. This seems like an excellent opportunity for people who are less experienced or perhaps not members of the IPMC yet to try their hand at mentoring. Given your expertise and dedication, someone with less experience could offer advice to the podling and feel confident that you would be there to back them up or provide subtle correction as necessary. Be sure to let private@incubator know if anybody shows up to help and deserves to be nominated for the IPMC. :) Marvin Humphrey --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
