Assuming for a second that you are not speaking of Wicket; A podling is ready to graduate when the community operates TheApacheWay and has cleared the legal hurdles, not when it has something that can be used by kreti & pleti, the general public. Often the "usefulness" comes before the community and legalities, but from the Incubator's point of view, it is not a concern. So, I would claim that it is definately a positive sign that a podling is able to cut a 'non-functional' release, or a 'functional' release that explicitly will not be supported, future-proof and having other qualities typically expected from Apache projects.
