+1 for both Graduation and going as a TLP. I think we have enough stuff
and enough distinction to warrant TLP.

We've started some discussions on the cxf-private list about graduation
stuff, but I wanted to bring it out to the wider list.
OK, question #1: are we ready to graduate? Other than a few
administravia things like updating the status page with the results of
the karma cleanup (which I'll do once I remember how to update that
page... It's been a while.), are there any other issues that people
feel would need to be resolved?
Question #2: assuming #1 is yes, should we graduate to a top level
project or to a subproject of something else. If subproject, where?
My thoughts:
On #1: yes. We have now have a diverse community of contributors. We
have shown we can do releases based on apache guidelines. (we've done 6
of them). We have shown we conduct our discussions in public within
full view of the community. We have followed Apache guidelines and
voting proceedures wherever required. I don't feel there is anything
left to gain by remaining in the incubator.
On #2: I'm strongly in favor of going TLP. While some may argue that a
subproject of ws may be preferred, I'm not one of them. :-) I
personally think the WS project should actually be broken up a bit, so
making the situation worse doesn't accomplish anything. However,
that is mostly my subjective opinion.
Anyone else have any thoughts?
