And again: parquet.apache.org needs to be live, as we'll be pointing folks to it in the press release :-)

Ack. Here's another example of a TLP press release for a project that had a pre-existing user base prior to coming to the ASF. https://blogs.apache.org/foundation/entry/the_apache_software_foundation_announces40 Note that the Parquet announcement will have a format similar to this and the Apache Samza announcements, as this is the ASF house style. I'm happy to work with you to sanity-check/review any supporting announcements as well.

Thanks for making sure everyone is on the thread. So it looks like the annoucement should have: * Parquet is graduating! Yay! * A short description of what Parquet does * Testimonials about how awesome Parquet is * What graduation means for the Apache Parquet community Is that a good summary? For the more in-depth post, what were you thinking about, Chris? We could include a bit more project history and highlight how it has grown since becoming part of Apache. I'd like to highlight where we're headed after graduation. I think there is a lot going on we can talk about. rb On 04/20/2015 11:43 AM, Sally Khudairi wrote: > Thanks so much, Ryan. > > I've just replied to your note below; to keep everyone in the loop, I've > copied what I wrote below. > > Looking forward to collaborating :-) > > -Sally > > = = = > > ----- Forwarded Message ----- > From: Sally Khudairi <[email protected]> > To: Ryan Blue (via Google Docs) <[email protected]> > Cc: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> > Sent: Monday, 20 April 2015, 14:42 > Subject: Re: Apache Parquet Graduation Blog Post - Invitation to edit > > > > Thanks, Ryan --hey, Chris! > > I presume we'll connect with a bit of an action plan; in the interim, here's > what I need from you, using the Apache Samza announcement as an example: > > - "what is Apache Parquet" --e.g. the second paragraph of "Apache Samza is > a..."
