Hello, Incubator community and IMPC-ers, Kyuubi has been an incubating project since 2021-06-21 after the proposal[1] was accepted. During the incubation, the Kyuubi project and community developed stably and continuously following the Apache Way. By sorting out and self-checking the Kyuubi maturity model[2], we believe that the Kyuubi project is ready for graduating as a Top Level Project. Meanwhile, corresponding threads for both discussions[3] and vote[4][5] have been finished in the kyuubi@dev mailing list with positive results. Hereby, we would like to collect feedback from the incubator community through this discussion.
