OK guys, Discussion has proceeded positively, so I'm calling for a community VOTE for the graduation of Apache Mesos (incubating) into a top level project. If this VOTE is successful, then I'll call an Incubator PMC VOTE (hopefully by say Tuesday) and if that is successful, I'll paste the project graduation resolution below into the board agenda and we can discuss it at the June 2013 board meeting.
So far, I've heard the following VOTEs (implied) during the DISCUSS thread. If you see your name there is no need to VOTE again and I'll carry through the VOTE as below. If you want to change your VOTE, or I got it wrong, let me know and we'll change it. +1 Chris Mattmann* Vinod Kone Benjamin Hindman Benjamin Mahler Yan Xiu Deepal Jayasinghe Brenden Matthews * - indicates IPMC All others, please VOTE to graduate Apache Mesos (incubating) from the Incubator. I'll try and close the VOTE Monday and then start the Incubator PMC VOTE on [email protected] then. [ ] +1 Graduate Apache Mesos (incubating) from the Incubator per the resolution below. [ ] +0 Don't care. [ ] -1 Don't graduate Apache Mesos (incubating) from the Incubator because.. Thanks guys! Resolution is pasted below for reference.
