Please vote as to whether you think Chukwa should become a top-level
Apache project.
I've included below a draft board resolution. It lists all current
active Chukwa committers as initial members of the project management
committee (PMC) and myself, Eric Yang, as the initial chair.
Do the good people of Hadoop support sending this request on to the Hadoop
PMC?
regards,
Eric
