The early rule did not work, specifically for projects that intended
to graduate as a TLP. There was insufficient experience left in one
group post-graduation to properly create an Apache release, so we were
criticized for having approved their graduation.
How do we know that a group has learned the Apache way of doing things
if they have never voted on a release? The single most important action
of a TLP should be learned by the committers before they become a TLP.
At ApacheCon, it was noticed that at the present time the number of
podlings exceeds the number of Apache projects (I believe the figures
quoted were 37 to 35).
I am of the opinion that the pendulum has swung too far - we seem to
have a number of potential projects effectively "parked" in incubation.
In the case of Harmony, I would be prepared to vote for graduation.
