This is a call for vote to graduate the Apache Jena podling from Apache
Incubator to be a top level project.
Jena entered incubation in November 2010. The project has added two new
committers and PPMC members, made several releases and has a diverse
committer base. The user and development communities are active. The
PPMC has indicated [1,2,3] that it believes the project is ready to
graduate as a top-level project with the resolution draft below.
We ask that the IPMC approve this graduation request though this VOTE.
