After the latest discussion amongst this dev community on this dev mailing
list[1], presenting Sheng Wu as the PMC Chair and the maturity model[2], and
then the discussion again on the incubator list[3]. I would like to call a vote
for Apache SkyWalking graduating to a top level project. I would like to note
that some questions were raised by the IPMC in the incubator discussion and
that it is important to read them through, and make a decision for yourself if
they have been addressed. The incubator discussions also lead to the draft
graduation proposal altering the list of proposed PMC, removing some inactive
people and adding all the podling Committers.
Apache SkyWalking entered the incubator on December of 2017. SkyWalking has
delivered 8 releases so far in total, and now shows a good cadence of
successful releases.
During the podling's time in the Apache Incubator there has been
3200+ commits on development of the project,
378 Issues tagged as question in GitHub created, 373 resolved,
850+ Pull request created and resolved,
97 different contributors,
9 elected new committers, and
3 elected new PPMC members.
And the dev ML has had 72 participants:
https://lists.apache.org/[email protected]:2019
Attached is the draft Resolution for the PPMC and IPMC to vote upon.
Please take a minute to vote on whether or not Apache SkyWalking should
graduate to a Top Level Project by responding with one of the following:
[ ] +1 Apache SkyWalking should graduate.
[ ] +0 No opinion
[ ] -1 Apache SkyWalking should not graduate (please provide the reason)
The VOTE is open for a minimum of 72 hours. Per Apache guidelines[4] I will
also be notifying the incubator mailing list that a community vote is under
way.
regards,
Mick
