Guys, I'm definitely +1 for both graduation and ant as the chair. For the tasks, as ant mentioned the graduation guide [1] is definitely a good read. A few additional details:
* In your resolution, one of the most important parts is the description. Don't be too broad, you can eventually expand the scope later on if necessary (simple request/ack to the board). Right now the wording is good but a bit too "fuzzy" I think. It's also good to add a statement about how the project can interact or play with other projects. * The other important parts of the resolution are the chair and the PMC list. Look like you're pretty much set on that side. You can choose to extend the PMC too, and add committers that aren't in the PPMC yet but would deserve to. * Make sure that your project status page is up-to-date [2] Once you're set, you can start a formal vote on the board resolution in the community. Then you'll ask for the incubator vote. You'll also have to take the board schedule into account. Usually meetings are the third Wednesday of each month so it's too late for this month but you could be in good shape for October (should be the 17th). Cheers!
