Hi Alan, Thanks for the pointer.
I'm -1 on this graduation for the following reasons: 1. It looks eerily similar to the creation of umbrella projects. I would expect the ASF board to not be happy with the graduation of a podling as effectively a sub project of an established TLP, with the sub project status maintained through a rather lengthy set of bylaws that after trying to read through for about 5 mins I decided to stop. TL;DR 2. If the two communities can't be merged by simply merging the PPMC into the PMC, then why not simply graduate HCatalog as its own TLP? 3. I get a little nervous every time I see bylaws used to draw artificial lines and to create new roles that don't exist at Apache. "sub module committer"? How is this comparable across projects? It's not really. Projects don't have to be strictly comparable, but realize that you report to the Board with common criteria, and so thus at some level projects are comparable. I'd like to understand the answers to my above questions and I'd urge other PMC members to take a look at this. It seems to be a recipe for later issues, based on past experience with Hadoop, Lucene, and other umbrellas that were dismantled.
