Folks, It's my view as a mentor, and I know that it's also the view of some of the other mentors, that you are all ready to go catch your own worms.
Humor aside, I'm not proposing to go find a lever and push you out whether you like it or not. Rather, I write this message to invite a consensus of the community to proceed towards graduation. It would be typical for some of you to perhaps have some qualms or concerns as to whether you are ready; this thread invites the airing of same. If this thread finds such a consensus, I think that the broad outline of the procedure will be: 1: collect the identities of current PPMC members who wish to be PMC members. 2: collect nominations on a first PMC chair, and reach a consensus 3: draft a resolution for the ASF board 4: put the resolution up for a vote of the IPMC --benson
