+Title: Project HistoryXXX
+
+The goal of this page is to document the history of the Apache Flex, starting
with Adobe
+deciding to donate it to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF), incubation and
Apache Flex becoming a top level project.
+
+It might be useful for other similar projects, or any incubating project, as
an example of the steps involved in
+an Apache incubation.
+
+See [http://incubator.apache.org](http://incubator.apache.org) for the
official Incubator documentation, and
+in particular the [incubation process
description](http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Process_Description.html)
page.
+
+<div class="headline"><h4> 2011: Adobe decides to contribute Flex to the ASF
</h4></div>
+
+The decision is made within Adobe to incubate Flex at the ASF. Work starts on
the incubation proposal, on explaining
+internally what this means, on the legal/IP clearance steps required to donate
the code and on recruiting
+initial committers who will help get the project started.
+
+<div class="headline"><h4> December 12, 2011: Flex Summit </h4></div>
+
+The [Flex
Summit](http://tv.adobe.com/show/flex-community-summit-december-2011) is
organized to make
+the Flex community aware of the upcoming changes, and to allow initial Flex
committers to sign up and network.
+
+Among the available videos, these two provide interesting insights on how
Apache projects work, by Roy Fielding,
+one of the ASF's founders:

+The following blog posts provide other views on the event, and show that it
was useful for the Flex community
+and for the upcoming Apache Flex project:

+<div class="headline"><h4> December 20, 2011: Incubation proposal submitted
</h4></div>
+
+The [Incubation proposal](http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/FlexProposal) is
submitted
+and
[discussed](http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-general/201112.mbox/%3CCB14DCA2.3885F%25aharui%40adobe.com%3E)
on the incubator-general mailing list, followed after a few days (once the
+discussion dies down) by the Incubator PMC vote mentioned below.
+
+The list of incubation mentors is completed during the proposal's discussion
phase, after asking for volunteers
+when submitting the proposal.
+
+A few initial committers are also added during the discussion phase.
+
+<div class="headline"><h4> December 22, 2011: Vote for Anne and Dave as
incubator PMC members </h4></div>
+
+Project mentors need to be members of the Incubator PMC, ASF members just need
to ask to get this membership.
+
+Committers who are not (yet) Apache members need to be voted in by the
Incubator PMC, which is done
+around December 22 for Anne and Dave.
+
+<div class="headline"><h4> December 27, 2011: [VOTE] Flex to join the Apache
Incubator </h4></div>
+
+The [Incubator PMC vote](http://markmail.org/message/puo2rtrvby65lb3m)
+lasts at least 72 hours, after which whoever started it
+[tallies
it](http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-general/201112.mbox/%3CCAEWfVJmMq390Hinafg%2Bjik8VqboYG1ixe_gnz5O2bV5q5mtKPw%40mail.gmail.com%3E).
+the vote for Flex passes on December 30th.
+
+<div class="headline"><h4> Late December 2011: Basic infrastructure is created
</h4></div>
+
+See for example the
+[INFRA-4260](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-4260) (create mailing
lists)
+and
+[INFRA-4262](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-4262) (create JIRA
instance)
+issues.
+
+Flex is added to the Incubator's [reporting
schedule](http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/ReportingSchedule).
+
+The [Flex incubation status
page](http://incubator.apache.org/projects/flex.html) is created.
+
+People are invited to subscribe to the new Apache Flex [mailing
lists](/flex/mailing-lists.html)
+
+Those lists are added to [flex.markmail.org](http://flex.markmail.org) for
convenience, using the markmail feedback form.
+
+Discussions and consensus building start, including clarifications about the
role of the PPMC, committers
+and community, whether to create roadmaps or just let things evolve
organically, etc.
+
+<div class="headline"><h4> Late 2011 and early 2012: User accounts </h4></div>
+
+Mentors request creation of Apache accounts for the initial committers listed
in the
+[incubation proposal](http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/FlexProposal), after
asking people which Apache ID
+they would like, avoiding collisions with [existing
IDs](http://people.apache.org/committer-index.html).
+
+Initial committers, who are also PPMC members, are invited to subscribe to the
Flex private mailing list
+(which is used for discussions about people, new committers etc. and as little
as possible besides that) and
+made aware of the [Apache guide for new
committers](http://www.apache.org/dev/new-committers-guide.html).
+
+Flex committers are granted write access to the [subversion
repository](http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/flex/)
+and [JIRA issue tracker](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX) and can
start actual coding work.
+
+<div class="headline"><h4> January 17, 2012: Software grant received
</h4></div>
+
+Adobe's [software grant](http://www.apache.org/licenses/software-grant.txt) is
received by the ASF's
+secretary, the Flex code can now be imported into Apache Flex's code
repository.
+
+<div class="headline"><h4> February 22, 2012: First committer voted in
</h4></div>
+

listed in the incubation proposal) to
+be voted in, after a short discussion and a vote on the Flex private
+mailing list, as per the [incubator's
instructions](http://incubator.apache.org/guides/ppmc.html).
+
+<div class="headline"><h4> March 27, 2012: MXMLC donation announced </h4></div>
+
+The legal/IP clearance work for that module is done on the Adobe side, that
code is ready to be donated.
