Right now, there's no mention to the graduated project they graduated outside of what secretary sends.

I've taken care of the last 6, either by repeatedly emailing the TLPs or doing it myself.

It seems like a lot of those sections are irrelevant since podlings are effectively TLPs with double host names (podling.a.o and podling.i.a.o). None of that stuff moves.
