I thought every incubator project submit its own report internally to incubator, and that is then combined into the board report. I would really prefer that every incubator project had its own file (or directory if you prefer), it has 2 advantages: 1) the file only contain information relevant for that project. 2) it is much easier for IPMC to determine, which mentors have acted on a specific project report. the board report should then be assembled via a tool, and IPMC (the chair) can add the verbal missing parts. but its just my opinion, and if incubator is used to work differently, I will not be the one to propose big changes. rgds jan i. > > Regards, > Alan > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org > >
