Hi all, Hello all, After our discussion about readiness for graduation to TLP on the dev mailing list [8], I would like to call a VOTE for Apache ECharts graduating as a top level project.
If this vote passes, the next step would be to submit the resolution below to the Incubator PMC, who would vote on sending it on to the Apache Board. Vote: [ ] +1 - Recommend graduation of Apache ECharts as a TLP [ ] 0 - I don't feel strongly about it, but don't object [ ] -1 - Do not recommend graduation of Apache ECharts because... The VOTE will open for at least 72 hours. --------------------------------------------- X.
