It would be great to have some discussion about Graduating. Any thoughts about TLP vs. joining another project. Beyond answer that question (given new projects like Superset), we’ve been ready to graduate for a while IMHO, despite having a small community. We should move on this in CY2021 Q2.
If nothing else heard in one more week, I think we should pick up the vote we started on the IPMC mailing list in CY2020 Q4. We addressed all those actions (less more active community discussion on graduating :) ).
