-Incubator board reports are organised by year and month. To create a new report, copy the MonthYear template and correctly rename it. Add and link the new temple to the list of reports on the front page.
-Currently, members of the IPMC and Podling PMCs have permission to edit pages in the Reports section of the wiki. The permissions to that section will need to be updated when new podlings are added or retired. 
-When submitting a final report to the board, make sure to mark the report as read-only and mark it as submitted at the top of the page, so that future accidental edits are mot missing from the board report.
