There is ONLY ONE IPMC. aka the Incubator Project Management Committee.
ONE.
IPMC refers to the committee.
The use of "IPMC" to refer to a *MEMBER* of the IPMC is erroneous. The
correct phrase is "5 members of the IPMC".
NOTE: I have seen this elsewhere. A "PMC" is a committee. It is NOT A
PERSON.

Hi Greg,
Thanks for pointing that out. Is "5 IPMC members" correct also? "5 members
of the IPMC" is a bit wordy, though.
