Hi guys,
Discussion has proceeded positively, so I'm calling for a community VOTE
for the graduation of Apache Spark (incubating) into a top level project.
If this VOTE is successful, then I'll call an Incubator PMC VOTE in 72
hours, and if that is successful, we’ll submit the project graduation
resolution below into the board agenda for the next Apache board meeting.
So far, I've heard the following VOTEs (implied) during the DISCUSS
thread. If you see your name there is no need to VOTE again and I’ll carry
through the VOTE as below. If you want to change your VOTE, or I got it
wrong, let me know and we'll change it.
+1
Matei Zaharia
Reynold Xin
Tathagata Das

Anyone else interested, please VOTE to graduate Apache Spark from the

Incubator PMC VOTE on gene...@incubator.apache.org.
