Just a final reminder before I send in the Incubator board report next morning CET.
Below you find the JaxMe status file. In a private discussion the PPMC members have expressed their opinion, that the tasks required for incubation are performed and we would like to request graduation to ws.apache.org.
Questions:
- Any reasons that prevent graduation?
- If not: What is required to start the vote on [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Is an informal mail sufficient or do we need a vote from the PPMC
first that triggers the actual vote?Jochen
