I just read the "there's no diversity requirement in ASF" email by Roy and its very enlightening!
I think we've amply demonstrated the "right" behavior by ASF standards. That was easy for us because we try hard to do the same in all WSO2 projects :-). I don't think we should wait any longer for graduation at least on that basis. The trademark aspect has also been accepted by Shane from the trademarks team (I clarified a question for them and he replied saying ack and ok). So What else do we need to do to march forward? Would be awesome to be ready by ApacheCon! Sanjiva. On Fri, Mar 21, 2014 at 5:28 AM, Lakmal Warusawithana <[email protected]>wrote: > With outstanding, out of 5, 3 committors are non wso2 employees.
