Yes, and Bertrand has conducted the check we now run on poddling we think are ready to become TLP.
As a mentor who have followed a few podlings in the past, I must say that Groovy was one of the easiest ! OTOH, the project was already mature before being accepted in incubator. Keep in mind that this move was dictated by the decision from Pivotal to stop paying the main developpers, combined with the shutdown of the Codehaus hosting facility. The Groovy fellows decided that The ASF was the best place to host the project, and they did a long due diligence to check that the ASF requirements were easy to follow for them. In many ways, it was all about finding the right place for the project, and The ASF was a perfect fit. Every single requirements (IP clearance, voting releases, accepting new committers, discussion on the ML, etc) where easily met, and the groovy community was really open minded and ready for any required change in their way of doing things. Mature ? You bet !
