Hi Justin, Thanks for starting the discussion and for putting together the draft. Having a guideline on distributions should definitely be helpful. This is very relevant to the distribution issues we are addressing in MXNet so I will take a close look and try to contribute.
I have a question regarding the nature of the document and the vote. I see that the title for this document is "Distribution Guidelines". Do you intend to have this document considered as a distribution policy? If so, why isn't the existing Apache policies regarding distribution sufficient so that the incubator needs to impose additional distribution policy that top-level projects are not subject to? If the document is not intended as a policy, but as a guide for podlings to help navigate the Apache policies, what binding power does the proposed vote provide to the doc? In addition, I was hoping to find past discussions on this draft document. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find any on this list with the document link. Given that the guideline was just updated today, I will try to read more closely and bring back comments soon.
