The graduation guide is a bit vague and incomplete on one point:
sending the resolution to the board.
It is mentioned in the process description to send a message to the
board (to board@), but there are of course no example messages to be
found (board@ is not public).
It would be nice to add the board@ list from the process description
to the graduation guide (which I'll do soon), and perhaps mention a
typical message that can be an inspiration for other Podlings.
However, for proposing graduation to the IPMC a lot of templates are
available, as anyone can search the general@ list for [vote]
graduation. Are such templates, or guidelines for communicating with
the board available?
In its bare essentials I could just send the resolution to board@, but
I think that gives the board a bit too much to dig through (what is
that podling?, did the IPMC vote, are all status check marks checked?,
etc). Of course these would be covered by the IPMC, however I can
imagine that a member of the board at least wants to check what the
project is.
I think you just need to send the resolution with a note attached
indicating that the IPMC has voted for Wicket to graduate (with link
to the relevant vote thread) and a request to include it for
consideration at the next board meeting. Probably a good idea to cc
this list - so that people here know that you've sent it - then if it
gets stuck in moderation or it for some reason doesn't get put on the
agenda someone can chase it up for you.
It is generally not advised to cross-post between private and public
lists - board list participants might find themselves inadvertently
posting private comments to a public list, or they may find their
comments posted for them by someone else who replies.
You could cc it to, say, the wicket-private list. That is a private list
that you are subscribed to, which means at least _some_ people will be
able to confirm that the message has been received on [EMAIL PROTECTED]
