As recommended[1]:
* the Rat community has indicated that its readiness[2] to graduate as
the Apache Creadur Project
* the proposed charter has been reviewed[3]
The penultimate stage is this VOTE by the incubator community. The VOTE
is open to all but only IPMC votes are binding.
I will tally the results no earlier than noon UTC on Thursday, March 22,
2012[4].
