Hi, I am reading the documentation for graduation[1], below is what I think the community need to do:
- Choose PMC chair. I am suggesting Ian Luo as PMC chair. Ian is leading the Dubbo project, and has rich experience in RPC/service framework. I think he is the best candidate. How do others think? - Discuss how to form PMC, normally just put all the PPMC member to PMC member, but it is better to ask whether they are willing to or not. I can help to send the email if the community is willing to. - Complete maturity model assessment. I can help to draft it. - Add a page of how to report security issue to official website. Can some one help with it? - Add a documentation of how to become a committer on the website. Can some one help with it? - Draft a resolution document, I can help to draft it. This need input from the first 2 TODO item.
