Hi,
the Apache VXQuery podling has been active for a while [1] and its
community agrees that it is ready to graduate from the incubator to be
TLP.
The podling has a relatively small but stable community and it has
demonstrated its ability to add committers (2 so far) and to create
apache releases (also 2 so far, see also [2]).
The podling's community passed a supporting vote with 8 +1 votes, 2 of
those were from the podling's mentors Ant Elder and Marvin Humphrey [3].
The proposed board resolution is attached.
Please vote if the Apache Incubator PMC should recommend the creation of
the Apache VXQuery project to the Board.
[ ] +1 Recommend the creation of the Apache VXQuery project.
[ ] 0 Don't care.
[ ] -1 The Apache VXQuery podling is not ready to graduate because ...
Thanks for your VOTE,
Till (on behalf of the Apache VXQuery PPMC).
