This is a vote for Calcite to become a top-level project. Since joining the Incubator in May, 2014, the Calcite community has: * Produced eight IPMC-approved releases under two release managers; * Added five new committers and one new PPMC member; * Collaborated successfully with several other Apache projects (Drill, Hive, Kylin, Phoenix, Samza); * Grown into an active community (typical monthly activity is 100 emails, 30 commits and 20 issues fixed); * Conducted a successful community vote to graduate with 20 +1 votes, of which 2 were from our mentors, 12 were from committers, and 6 were from IPMC members.
Further information: the discussion on the dev list [1], vote thread [2] and result [3]. Also relevant are the incubation status page [4] and a thread on this list requesting review of whether Calcite met the criteria to graduate [5]. Below is our proposed resolution for the Board.
