Hi All, Since entering Incubation in June 2013, the stratos podling has evolved and is now ready to self-govern. The community has extensively debated graduation readiness [1] and overwhelmingly voted positively [2]. As far as I can tell the project status is up to date [3]. The name search has concluded with approval [4] and trademark/website/branding have been discussed at various times and the donor (WSO2) has willingly co-operated and all queries were satisfactorily resolved (please refer to dev and private list discussions).
This thread is to start a IPMC discussion on Stratos TLP readiness and identity and address any remaining issues (if exist). Below is the draft resolution. I want to take a tangent and convey my personal appreciation for hands-on and diligent mentoring from Noah, Chip and Ant (especially Noah). I have learnt some more in the process and I recommend first time mentors to surf startos lists for precedence. Cheers, Suresh (Stratos Mentor) [1] - http://markmail.org/thread/6tm4bh6rezcxxy45 [2] - http://markmail.org/message/gqxp7t4ylatfahgz [3] - http://incubator.apache.org/projects/stratos.html [4] - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PODLINGNAMESEARCH-45 =========== Board Resolution ========== Establish the Apache Stratos Project WHEREAS, the Board of Directors deems it to be in the best interests of the Foundation and consistent with the Foundation's purpose to establish a Project Management Committee charged with the creation and maintenance of open-source software, for distribution at no charge to the public, related to providing an implementation of a Platform-as-a-Service Framework.
