Yes.  The PPMC has no legal standing, and is an Incubator artifact.  We want
them to vote, but the only *binding* votes are those of Incubator PMC
members.  Hence the suggestion that every podling have at least three
Mentors.

No.

And, yes, the "separate votes" is confusing to people.  It is purely an
artifact of having separate mailing lists, as there is really just one vote.
