Hi all, Apache ECharts (incubating) has learned and grown a lot since our incubation in Jan 2018. Now, I'm glad to call on a discussion about whether we are ready for graduation and what remains to be done. Hopefully, after this discussion, we can set the status to be "near graduation" in the monthly report.
Updates since incubation: - 2 new PPMCs (and another has completed the vote and undergoing the process) and 7 new committers were elected and joined the community [1] and now we have committers working for more than 6 different companies. - Our mailing list [2] is very active and we have 79 people subscribed to it. - Released 8 versions by 2 release managers [3]; release guide is at [4] - 73 people have contributed to the project during incubation [9] - Assessment of the maturity model is available at [5] - Branding issues have been solved and name searching has been completed [6] Other things we need to discuss: 1. Website We updated our Website [7] content, logo, document, and so on according to Apache rules and hopefully, it's following all requirements. You may help check the rules [8] and discuss the ones that you think need to change. 2. Sponsored CDN We have updated the Website with a sponsored CDN to improve speed in China and created an account for all PPMCs. But we are not sure how we should distribute the password of that account? Should we send the password on the private mailing list? Is that safe enough? Also, the releasing script in the release guide [4] depends on the password of the CDN private key. How should we distribute it? 3. PMCs and Committers We have to discuss what to do with the initial PPMCs that had no clear contribution to the project during incubation. We should decide on each of them, do we wish to make him a PMC or Committer or neither. Basically, it's decided by the project, so please talk about how you feel about this. a.
