Hello Tom and HertzBeat Community, I fully support the graduation of Apache HertzBeat to become a Top-Level Project (TLP). After reviewing the community's progress and achievements, I believe we are indeed ready for this important milestone.
The evidence speaks for itself: **Strong Community Foundation**: With 271+ contributors, 9 committed committers, and 13 PPMC members, we have built a robust and diverse community. The recent additions of new PPMC members and committers demonstrate our healthy growth and active contributor pipeline. **Proven Release Management**: Our community has successfully delivered 4 releases since entering incubation, with multiple release managers who are well-versed in Apache processes. This demonstrates our operational maturity and ability to maintain consistent delivery cycles. **Active Community Engagement**: The high level of activity on GitHub issues and pull requests, combined with our monthly community meetings that attract newcomers interested in the project, shows a vibrant and growing ecosystem. This organic growth is a strong indicator of project health. **Apache Way Adoption**: Most importantly, we have embraced The Apache Way in our community interactions and governance. Our documented contributor-to-committer process and commitment to transparent, merit-based decision-making align perfectly with Apache's values. **Technical Maturity**: HertzBeat has established itself as a valuable monitoring and observability platform with a clear value proposition, stable architecture, and growing user base. The combination of technical excellence, community vitality, operational competence, and cultural alignment with Apache principles makes a compelling case for graduation. I'm confident that HertzBeat will continue to thrive as a TLP and contribute meaningfully to the broader Apache ecosystem. Thank you to all mentors, committers, PPMC members, and contributors who have made this journey possible. Let's move forward with the graduation process!
