I think the following report illustrates quite nice how hard we were
working in the last 10 months:

Hi,
although not yet official announced (awaiting to be mirrored), we could
say we've fulfilled the milestone of releasing a new version of
Marmotta. Not because the release itself, but for all those things we
have learned as project in the way. Since we joined Incubation in
December (although we actually started in February after we got LMF 2.6)
we have evolved a lot as team, and that can be noticed in how the
quality of the software has improved in these months. Thanks all of you
for such effort!
Therefore I think now we are finally ready to graduate Marmotta as a
Apache Top Level Project, so it's the time to seriously talk about it.
And I'd like to hear what you, all the team, do think about such
important step.
I agree that we should finally move forward. Can we quickly summarize
the steps that are remaining (by checking against the graduation guide
you mentioned)?
For quick reference, here is our status page:
* http://incubator.apache.org/projects/marmotta.html
Personally I think the graduation would bring some clear benefits (more
self governance, more visibility, faster releases, etc) that we
currently don't have as a podling. But we still need to continue growing
as project, don't forget that.
BTW, there is a good guide about the graduation process [1]. Get the
name approved [2] would be one of the first things to push forward.
Cheers,
