I just added a draft, please feel free to review and add if you see
points I may have forgotten.
BTW we have only one point open before we can graduate:
* IP clearance
How does we feel to graduate? I guess we would graduate to our TLP?
The sponsor is Lucene which imjplies grduation to there. Is this no
longer the case?
Personally I think talk of graduation is premature. There can be no
doubt that the project has been revived recently. However, I'm not sure
that I could claim there is a viable community yet.
What do we need to do for IP clearance? Anything that didn't originate
in the Apache SVN needs to go through clearance. However, if this
originated in Labs, does the base code need anything? Does anyone know
of any similar projects we could look at to see what their IP clearance
document looked like?
All code in SVN has been developed in the ASF by people with CLAs on
file, so there should be no problem there.
The libraries need to be verified which will happen in the release
validation.
The licence headers need to be checked (does Droids use RAT?) again this
needs to be done as part of the release.
Verifying your release is the responsibility of your mentors and the
IPMC. This is one reason why release candidates need to be made
available for verification before you call a release vote.
I don't see anything under out tree. Is it the page under the
Incubator's tree? If so, we'll have to have Ross commit it for us after
we've put together all of the updates and provide a diff.
It doesn't have to be me, see http://incubator.apache.org/guides/ppmc.html
