Dear Tom and the Apache HertzBeat Community, I am delighted to witness the significant progress and achievements Apache HertzBeat has made during its incubation period. The project has fostered an open, friendly, and active community, attracting over 270 contributors, 9 Committers, and 13 PPMC members.
During incubation, HertzBeat delivered three high-quality releases (1.6.0, 1.7.0, and 1.7.1), with the 1.7.2 release currently undergoing voting. I believe HertzBeat has fully met the maturity criteria required for incubation. This is demonstrated by: * Strong community diversity (270+ contributors) * Resilient governance processes, demonstrated by regular meetings and structured voting, * A tangible implementation of the Apache Way Collectively, these elements confirm the project's capability for independent operation. As a deeply involved participant, I have observed the community consistently prioritizing the core principle of "Community Over Code"—the very essence of Apache Top-Level Projects (TLP). Therefore, I wholeheartedly and firmly support HertzBeat's graduation as a TLP, and eagerly anticipate its leadership in driving sustained innovation within the area of open-source monitoring at the TLP stage.
