With my mentor hat on: I think you are ready, so I support this. Also think about discussing things like: Who will be part of the initial PMC? I remember in PLC4X we had loads of totally inactive PPMC members, some never even bothered signing up for the private project list or the project list. So We used that to shed ourselves of dead-skin ;-)

Hi, since StreamPipes joined the Apache Incubator in November 2019, a lot has happened: * We’ve had five releases in the incubator so far, with three different release managers * We’ve had steady community growth with many new committers & PPMC members * We have constant traffic on the mailing lists and I think we have really adopted the Apache way for development * StreamPipes has now over 9.000 commits, has evolved in terms of quality and feature-richness and we had many talks at ApacheCons and many other events to increase attention for our tool * Our self-assessment of the maturity model [1] looks good and all boxes are ticked 😉 So from my personal view, we are quite ready for graduation to a TLP! The graduation process foresees that we as a community discuss graduation readiness and have a community vote. Afterwards, we bring this to the Incubator list where another vote happens. Finally, the ASF board makes the final decision on graduation to a top-level project. The whole process will probably take several weeks. But first – what do you think? Should we go for graduation?
