"Not ready for graduation" is also too generic, for thw low diversity case we can have of "lacking to attract new committers" , in that case maybe the podling community can explain why to the IPMC also /w the help of Mentors and hence we are able to evaluate whether the reasons are really valid not to graduate or not For examle Isis is a very active and healthy community but it took a while till new blood comes into the community, which is changing recently but I believe it happens to other podlings as well But in general as u mentioned more investigations about categories of such cases is idd required > > > Given I committed to find a way for ComDev to support the Incubation > > process do you think this is a starting point? > > Yes.
