Writing some tooling
I'm currently writing some tooling to help with the incubation process as well as mail list moderator tools.
The first thing that I'm writing is a command that will print out who is the owner of an email alias and what projects they belong to and if they are ASF members. This will help me vet subscription requests since people rarely use their ASF email accounts.
The tools will be written in Python.
Regards,
Alan

Members to everything except board-private@, root@, and vp-*@; IPMC
members to all podling lists; PMC chairs to board@. There's also
a handful of "committers only" lists, and list owners can invite anyone
to subscribe to the list they operate through.
A fairly good approximation is this:
https://whimsy.apache.org/committers/subscribe
though it doesn't implement the "IPMC members can subscribe to any
podling list" rule. (Patches welcome.)

Yes please :-)

I'm done with this tool. It also sends a rejected email to the user informing them that they are not allowed to subscribe. Things I need in this email are:
URL of a web page describing out to add an alias to an account
URL of a web page describing mailing list membership policies
If these don't exist I am happy to write them.
A bunch of the Python utilities that I'm using are from LinkedIn and I'm in the process of "vetting" the code. I'll check it in as soon as that's done:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/public/trunk/tools
I'm now going to replace the mentors' names in podling.xml with their usernames and fix the corresponding web/reporting generation bits. Any pointers would be welcome.
Regards,
Alan

I'm done with this tool. It also sends a rejected email to the user informing them that they are not allowed to subscribe. Things I need in this email are:
URL of a web page describing out to add an alias to an account
URL of a web page describing mailing list membership policies
If these don't exist I am happy to write them.
