A google search of incubator release announcements ("site:mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-general announce incubating") reveals that only about 1/3 of them have the disclaimer. So, neither policy nor practice are clear. I have logged https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INCUBATOR-129 to clarify the documentation of the policy.
