Thanks for pushing this forward! 1. Maturity Model: The latest page on the official website is very clear and objective. +1 to syncing it to Apache Confluence. 2. Roadmap (Issue #951): Except for "Establish Regular Community Sync Meetings", other topics have ongoing discussions or implementations. Do we need to finalize a preliminary plan for this item before graduation?
