This is for the proposal, the "Nominated Mentors" section.
My observation, after seeing the topics that seem to be getting the most
attention from the IPMC members on this list, is that in the the Podling
we will want to pay special attention to:
- IP review and remediation, due to the known presence of non-Apache code
dependencies
- Apache infrastructure, due to sheer size of the project, as well as the
desire to have both project-facing and public facing web portals
- Build management, due to the resources needed to build and the multiple
platforms needed to build and test with
- Community development, due to the need to develop and
coordinate/collaborate with current and anticipated downstream consumers
of the project, as well as potentially forging bi-directional
collaborations.
These, to me, seem to be areas we want to focus on. I apologize in
advance if it is out of place for me to be asking this, but I think that
with a project of this size, complexity, visibility, and shall we say
drama, we would benefit from having incubation mentors with noted strength
in these areas. We currently are listing Jim and Sam as project
mentors. This is an excellent start. But if say, another 2 or so IPMC
members who have complementary strengths in one or more of the above
areas, I'd welcome their assistance. That would allow us to work some of
these areas in parallel with each other, and in parallel with other
incubation tasks, without being too much of an imposition for any single
mentor.
