next steps toward graduation
If I correctly understand the process, the next step is for us to formally propose graduation to the Incubator PMC. Before we do that we need to go through the Graduation Check List and make sure we have no outstanding issues: http://incubator.apache.org/guides/graduation.html#checklist Here's my take on where we are: 1. Preparations. i) Complete (and sign off) tasks documented in the status file. Status file needs to be updated. The page that's up on the site doesn't reflect the most recent changes to the file (see below). The last time I tried to get the site updated using the Apache infrastructure I ran into a number of problems that I wasn't able to overcome even with the help of other on [EMAIL PROTECTED] Maybe someone else can take a crack at it this time -- who's willing to take this on? The errors I encountered are here: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg11582.html This is the most recent change to our status: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revrevision=550095 ii) Demonstrate ability to create Apache releases. [Done.] iii) Demonstrate community readiness. [Done.] iv) Ensure Mentors and IPMC have no remaining issues. [Mentors, please speak up if you have any remaining issues beyond those already raised in the vote thread.] 2. Decide upon destination. [Done: TLP.] 3. Prepare a resolution (top level candidates only). To do. Below are the three most recent proposals sent to the general incubator list. I'd like to suggest we all read the full threads to learn from any mistakes they may have made and start working on our own proposal this week. I volunteer to draft the proposal. http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg14697.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg14601.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg14104.html 4.

Consider post graduation tasks. Martin
