Hi all,
The PredictionIO community started an initial discussion on graduation
[1], evaluated the maturity model [2], and had a consensus that the podling
is good to graduate. The community proceeded to draft a
resolution, discussed it [3], and voted on it [4]. The vote passed with 9
+1 votes (8 binding) and no -1 votes.
The discussion proceeded to the general incubator list, and had gained
support [5]. I would now like to call for a recommendation vote to present
the ASF Board with the resolution to graduate from incubation and establish
Apache PredictionIO as a top-level project.
Apache PredictionIO entered incubation in May 2016. Since then the podling
has made 3 releases and added 8 PPMC members. For each release, source
artifacts have been voted on and made available to the public on the Apache
distribution network. Based on the maturity model evaluation [2], we
believe that the project is ready to graduate from the Incubator.
Please vote on whether to graduate PredictionIO from the Incubator and
recommend the graduation resolution below to the ASF Board.
[ ] +1 Graduate Apache PredictionIO podling from the Incubator
[ ] +0 Don't care
[ ] -1 Don't graduate Apache PredictionIO podling from the Incubator
because...
This vote will be open for at least 72 hours. Thanks to all mentors and
Apache PredictionIO project members and community for their support and
contribution.
The full text of the resolution from [5] is below. The resolution will be
submitted to the Board of Directors for their consideration upon approval
by the Apache Incubator PMC members.
Best Regards,
Donald
