OK, let's go through the graduation check list:
Preparations
------------
* Complete (and sign off) tasks documented in the status file
FMPOV http://incubator.apache.org/projects/marmotta.html looks complete.
* Ensure suitable names for project name and product names
PODLINGNAMESEARCH-39 has been approve on October 10th.
* Demonstrate ability to create Apache releases
Although we still need to improve our ability to create maintenance and
minor releases, I think the two incubating releases endorse us.
* Demonstrate community readiness
Community growing healthily: 2 new committers have joined the project,
and external users start to use it and report issues.
* Ensure Mentors and IPMC have no remaining issues
Something I could say much more, but nothing AFAIK.
Decide upon destination
-----------------------
Top Level Project is the clear target
Prepare a resolution
--------------------
I could easily create a draft based on the template, but before we need
to talk about two things:
* The list of initial members of the project. Beside your mentoring
during incubation, I'd like to have on board all our mentors after
graduation. I really appreciate your experience, both about Apache and
Semantic Web technologies. So, Andy, Fabian, Nandana, would you like to
continue with us after graduation?
* Who would be the Apache Marmotta Vice President? Personally my
candidate for such position is Sebastian, since he is the technical
leader of the project.
Incubator PMC (IPMC)
--------------------
And finally, we would need to prepare the VOTE according the recommended
text.
Further steps (handover and so on) would come later...
So, summarizing, besides those two small things to discuss, I think we
are ready to start the graduation process :-)

There are several tasks for graduation that can be executed in parallel.
Once PODLINGNAMESEARCH-39 has been solve, what should be the next steps
to take...?
I'll take a look at:

But any advice would be welcomed ;-)
