See patch at
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INCUBATOR-93
to clarify the acceptance phase of new podlings
because the process depends on who is Sponsor.

The gist of it is:
---------
In Incubation_Policy.xml ...
* Add sentence to distinguish between IPMC being the sponsor or a TLP.
* Move the "Acceptance of Mentors" paragraph to its own sub-section.

In Process_Description.xml ...
* Add an "Introduction" section at beginning to remind to read other documents which also explain the process.
* Add words to distinguish between IPMC being the sponsor or a TLP.
---------

According to:
http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Incubation_Policy.html#Changing+this+Document
"All changes must be authorised by the Incubator PMC."

To me it seems to be straight-forward changes.
It is more than just tweaks, so it needs a vote.

Please vote on accepting these documentation changes.

This majority vote is open for one week. Votes from the
Incubator PMC members are binding.
