Hi all,
With the support and recommendations from our mentors, I would like to
request this vote for graduating Apache Traffic Server as Top-Level
Project. The community has grown (and is continuously growing) since
we first entered incubation, and we're seeing very exciting code and
documentation improvements. Contributions to Jira, Subversion,
mailing lists, and IRC come from a diverse set of users/developers and
organizations. A few interesting diversity data points are available at
http://people.apache.org/~zwoop/Mail-stats/
http://people.apache.org/~zwoop/IRC-stats/
http://people.apache.org/~zwoop/SVN-stats/
Our status page documents our community building, and overall progress
during incubation:
http://incubator.apache.org/projects/trafficserver.html
In addition to the committers and PMC members listed in the proposed
resolution below, Dima Ruban (Efficient Frontier) will stay with us as
a committer, but has expressed a wish to not be a PMC member at this
point.
Please cast your vote:
[ ] +1 to recommend Apache Traffic Server graduation
[ ] 0 don't care
[ ] -1 no, don't recommend yet, (because...)
Thanks!
-- Leif
