Below is a graduation resolution I would like to send to general@incubator for discussion. It includes the PMC volunteers as well as the result of the first PMC chair election, which was me.
Unless there is objection, I'll send this to general@incubator for discussion in a couple of days. If you want to participate in that discussion at general@incubator, you can subscribe by emailing general-subscr...@incubator.apache.org. As a reminder, the next steps I will take are: 1. Prepare a charter (i.e. this email) 2. Start a discussion on general@incubator. Should the discussion look mostly positive: 3. Call a vote on general@incubator. Should that vote succeed: 4. Submit the resolution to the ASF Board.
