The graduation guide[1] recommends that the Rat community
demonstrates it's willingness to govern itself through a free VOTE
before asking the IPMC to approve graduation. So, here it is :-)
See [2] for a draft of the charter, excluding the list of initial
committers. Unless anyone jumps into this thread, I'll assume that
the current list of committers would be fine. Please read, review
and jump in - but this is a vote on the principle of graduating now.
This VOTE is open to all, and I'll tally this no early than
Wednesday, 29 Feb 2012 17:00 UTC.
