    We've seen some outside interest in the project, at least on IRC; not
    much, but it's a start.

    I think we may as well announce that there will be a community vote on
    graduation readiness soon -- i.e., I think we can start it right now.



Yes, it would be good to get a decision from the community so that sounds like a good plan to me.

Cheers,

Hi,

I've just thrown this together. I'll add this to the incubator report soon to use as a starting point unless anyone thinks that I have not been upbeat enough again!

   Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

   1. Community growth/diversification
   2.
   3.

   Since the last report, three months ago, Bloodhound has completed
   its PODLINGNAMESEARCH which aside from issues of
   diversity was the final item to consider prior to graduation. The
   Bloodhound community has been discussing the
   issueof graduation following positive comments following the
   Decemeber2012 report and the community vote has now
   begun.

   The project now has demos running of Apache Bloodhound, one of which
   shows the current state of the trunk branch
   andproviding a demonstration of the new search functionality that
   has been developed. Unfortunately, we do not yet
   haveability to make use of the repository browser, which was
   something that was brought up in the previous report.

   We added two new committers to the project in January. We have also
   seen more interest in the project from a number
   of channels including irc and the dev mailing list which weare, as
   ever, hoping to convert into growth of the
   developer community and continue to improve upon diversity.

The questions that we are meant to answer (currently listed in our entry on the wiki page) are:

   Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to
   be aware of?
   How has the community developed since the last report?
   How has the project developed since the last report?

Cheers,
    Gary
