This list is a pretty high volume list that really is intended for topics
suitable for a general audience of incubator participants. Nevertheless it
carries a lot of traffic better suited for more topic-specific specialization.
Not everyone here is capable of participating in release voting, acceptance
voting, graduation voting, mentoring, documentation, or any of the other of
these specialized areas. So it does make some sense to shut some of this
traffic elsewhere.
Formally, that's all a working group needs to be- yet another mailing list.
Informally it could stimulate conversations between people working on similar
subjects that don't want to burden this list with that sort of conversation.

Elsewhere in the org several ideas have been floated around regardinggeneral
reorganization and reform. Things like possibly creating a newcommittee to
oversee inbound and outbound podlings, or perhaps having the IPMC form such a
subcommittee.
I mention these notions not because I support them, but because othershere
might want to pick up that ball and push some of that to conclusion.
However, one related suggestion I do support: creating subdivisions withinthe
incubator by labor. I would prefer to call those working groups butthat's not
a big deal.
It would be beneficial in several ways: teams of ingress IPMC memberscould have
a focused discussion on their own list about how to makeimprovements in that
labor area. Similarly for documentation, outbound transitioning, mentoring,
tho as Martijn points out that might need additional subdividing by focus areas
or timeline specialization.
Ted can fully flesh the details out as this was something he mentioned to me as
one possible avenue of improvement.
