Hi All, After a discussion with the community[1], we believe Apache Hop (Incubating) is ready for graduation to a TLP, and we'd like to bring it up in discussion with the IPMC.
The Hop community achievements since Hop joined the Incubator in September 2020: - over 3000 commits by 27 contributors - 4 releases (0.60, 0.70, 0.99, 1.0) - 5 mentors, 6 PPMC members (mentors excluded) and 8 committers (mentors and PPMC members excluded) - diverse committers and PPMC, with regular contributions from at least 4 different companies/institutes - Apache Hop website[2] - dev conversations at d...@hop.apache.org - assessed ourselves against the Apache Project maturity matrix[3] and didn't find any issues.
