I added my comments to that page: I think we need to revisit the https://www.opnfv.org/software/technical-project-governance/project-lifecycle expectations 2.5 years into OPNFV. IMO, in a rapidly evolving industry, projects will come and go, morph and merge, both in OPNFV and upstream. In fact, if we walk the "working upstream" talk, projects in OPNFV really should be quite short-lived (a couple of releases) before they are upstreamed fully, leaving behind only perhaps some deployment/test scripts as needed for the OPNFV CI/CD system, and some documents which describe what the project was about and where further development of it lives. Exceptions to this expectation for "succeed and disappear" may be the truly integration-focused projects (e.g. OpenStack distro-centered installers) and test projects that span upstream projects.

Besides a single comment on the wiki page (https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/PROJ/Graduation+review+discussions<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__wiki.opnfv.org_display_PROJ_Graduation-2Breview-2Bdiscussions&d=DQMFaQ&c=LFYZ-o9_HUMeMTSQicvjIg&r=OrbtGCluczz9awEKz9Fv7g&m=VqAXZ6YWr807EgwrEiOhHc_AplZZGIxhwRO-RjsQHoY&s=H8JHb1qDDrm32a5EmJblzKGzGVzOAknKACmLACPmegk&e=>), I don't believe there were other feedback so here's my recommendation. Based on past discussions, I believe there's consensus that graduation reviews are good ways of recognizing mature projects that can server as role models for the rest of the community. In addition, I don't think there's any need to make any modifications to the graduation review process in the current OPNFV Project Lifecycle (https://www.opnfv.org/software/technical-project-governance/project-lifecycle<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.opnfv.org_software_technical-2Dproject-2Dgovernance_project-2Dlifecycle&d=DQMFaQ&c=LFYZ-o9_HUMeMTSQicvjIg&r=OrbtGCluczz9awEKz9Fv7g&m=VqAXZ6YWr807EgwrEiOhHc_AplZZGIxhwRO-RjsQHoY&s=WFUsFzmv1ez4gUxcHXSuxYc5MzFuV6X6jQHUoP6oFcQ&e=>). There was a discussion on whether a project team can step forward for a graduation review or if there should be a nomination from the community, but I think either way will work. Let me know if you have any other questions/comments. If not, we could probably reach a quick consensus on the call tomorrow.

I also had a chance to talk to a few OpenDaylight community members last week and confirmed that projects that passed graduation/promotion reviews in their community serve as "role models" for other members of the community. I can bring this up during the TSC call tomorrow if we have time... Thanks, Ray
