Greetings,
As no issues have been raised in our previous post to discuss graduation,
the Apache UIMA community requests that the IPMC vote on recommending
this resolution to the ASF Board.
All of our mentors have agreed to pitch in as needed as members of our PMC.
The community is ready to graduate (see
http://markmail.org/thread/pmmf6gtr7z47ivd2 ).
Please cast your vote:
[ ] +1 to recommend UIMA's graduation
[ ] 0 don't care
[ ] -1 no, don't recommend yet, (because...)
-Marshall Schor
