The Apache Oozie project entered incubator in July of 2011. Since then we have grown the community in users and contributors, and we've made significant improvements to the project. Following the Apache guidelines we have made two releases, we are preparing a 3rd one, and we've added two new committers. The current set of committers and PPMC members are from different organizations and have demonstrated interest in growing the community further. We have learned the basis to manage the different aspects of an Apache project.
Given this, I think that Oozie is ready for graduation from the Incubator to become an Apache Top-Level project. To start this process, we first must vote within the Oozie community that we are ready to take on the responsibility of being a Top-Level project. Once the vote is successful, we will create a board resolution proposal and bring it to vote on the general Incubator list. The full process is described in [1]. Please cast your votes: [ ] +1 Graduate Oozie from Incubator [ ] +0 Indifferent to graduation status of Oozie [ ] -1 Reject graduation of Oozie from Incubator This vote will remain open for at least 72 hours from now.
