Hi Justin, As far as I see, people are confused about how the system works at Apache when they first entered to Incubator. Such a Cookbook will be great for them. Data is sparse through ASF resources and it is not easy to access them. I just want to mention some issues people are often confused:
* How to vote on a release. * What is the template for a VOTE thread of a committer. * Which actions need what kind of consensus. i.e. I can find information here about types of consensus: http://forrest.apache.org/guidelines.html#approvals or I can access some information about the committer process: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/wookie/project_admin/process/committerVote.txt It could be nice to add such information in one place. As another example, this page has some information about decision making which is not enough: https://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html#decision-making We should have a guideline for them. One place, all necessary questions answered. On the other hand, we should have a guideline for mentors too. Including responsibilities of them, how to mentor a podling project. I know that these are answered at somewhere but some of them are not adequate and most of them are split into many mail list threads.
