The wording in http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Incubation_Policy.html#Acceptance+of+Proposal+by+Sponsor could be improved, specifically these sentences: > Upon a successful result, the Sponsor SHOULD request the Incubator PMC take on the Candidate as a new Podling. > ... > The Incubator PMC MAY immediately accept the Candidate, or may (at the discretion of the Incubator PMC) require a successful VOTE by the Incubator PMC. > > The nominated Mentors MAY be immediately accepted by the Incubator PMC. However the Incubator PMC MAY also suggest replacement Mentors. The Incubator PMC has the final choice of Mentors. How should this be changed?
