Looks like community consensus is for graduation.

Is next step a formal vote?  Or, something else?

I am happy to check with incubator, etc on working through steps, in the
event nobody else wants to drive this.

+1

Graduation a great step, I am in favor.

I would like to see a bigger community [ of public users, and contributors
], and those from different organizations.  But, graduation may help that -
as being graduated is a strong signaling mechanism.

Hi Josh,
In short… yes. I firmly
Believe the project should graduate.
Please carry my +1 through to a VOTE thread.
