Hello Mentors,
Here is the draft version of documentation I have created for the
graduation of Apache Ranger Project, based on apache guide lines in
http://incubator.apache.org/guides/graduation.html.
Now I need your guidance on how should I take this to voting process. One
thing I am not sure of is calling out "Vice President, Apache Ranger².
Is this something ranger community decide and elect?
Thanks,
Ramesh
