+1 from me.
The Atlas community is vibrant, we have engagement from multiple companies, and the industry interest around governance is immense, as witnessed at recent conferences. It's exciting to see it evolve and getting it into a TLP will be another tick in the box as seen by potential users. Let's go for it! -----Original Message----- From: Mandy Chessell [mailto:mandy_chess...@uk.ibm.com] Sent: 26 April 2017 07:30 To: dev@atlas.incubator.apache.org Subject: Re: [DISCUSS] Ready to graduate? Hello Chris, No concerns at all ... we have a vibrant, multi-company community that is working together to expand Atlas's capability to be THE open metadata and governance platform for data and analytics. Many other people/organizations are eager to consume the results. Moving the project out of incubation sends a strong message to our stakeholders and users that Atlas is here to stay and through that we can strengthen the community further. All the best Mandy ___________________________________________ Mandy Chessell CBE FREng CEng FBCS IBM Distinguished Engineer Master Inventor Member of the IBM Academy of Technology Visiting Professor, Department of Computer Science, University of Sheffield Email: mandy_chess...@uk.ibm.com LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/pub/mandy-chessell/22/897/a49 Assistant: Janet Brooks - jsbrook...@uk.ibm.com From: Chris Douglas <cdoug...@apache.org> To: dev@atlas.incubator.apache.org Date: 26/04/2017 01:45 Subject: [DISCUSS] Ready to graduate? Hey Atlas folk- The name search JIRA is filled in [1] (thanks Madhan!), pending approval from VP trademarks. Independent of its resolution, does the community feel it is ready to graduate? As far as I've observed, the project is more than ready to be a top-level project. Are there any concerns we should discuss before we proceed? The process, roughly: 1. Community discussion of graduation 2. [VOTE] to graduate (PPMC votes binding) 3. Cite thread in general@incubator for discussion/vote (IPMC votes binding) 4. Add a resolution to the board agenda establishing Atlas as a top-level project 5. ASF board approves the resolution at its next meeting, Atlas becomes a TLP The project will also need to pick a chair for the new PMC. We can discuss that when we post the resolution. -C [1] https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PODLINGNAMESEARCH-118 Unless stated otherwise above: IBM United Kingdom Limited - Registered in England and Wales with number 741598.
