Hi Incubator,
The Apache Pony Mail community has voted to graduate to a Top-Level
Project. I am now calling a vote of the Incubator PMC to recommend
graduation to the Board of Directors.
Background
----------
Apache Pony Mail entered incubation in May 2016. The project provides
a mail-archiving, archive viewing, and mailing list interaction
service. It is actively deployed as lists.apache.org, serving the
entire ASF.
The community has operated self-sufficiently for years, with all
decisions made on the public dev@ list. The community vote passed
with 7 +1 votes and 1 +0, with no vetoes:
+1: Rich Bowen, Jim Jagielski, Sean Palmer, Dave Fisher,
Christian Grobmeier, Daniel Gruno, John D. Ament
+0: Sebb (wishes to remain committer but not join PMC)
-1: (none)
