I see two threads here - Concerns about graduation of Apache Tez project w.r.t diversity based on the PPMC html page - Community related threads about things like whether diversity is a hard requirement or how to grow communities.
AFAICT, Hitesh's latest information on the state of the members of the team (and the updated page) should allay any concerns on diversity. If people disagree, we can continue this thread along that discussion. If not, we can close this topic as the graduation discussion/vote proceeds here and elsewhere. The other threads may be valuable but OT IMHO and so are better forked into their own threads.
