Here's what I'd suggest we do. We start a separate thread about graduation - we discuss what it would look like, and who would want to be a member of the new PMC (of those already on the PPMC). We can explore whether we actually think we are ready.
If that is the case, then we would vote on it, and report that vote to the Incubator PMC, who would then have their own vote. If that passes, we would put together a resolution for the next Board meeting to create the Apache Wave PMC. This could, theoretically, happen at the next board meeting (i.e. April). In the meantime, we could say "we are wondering whether we have reached a sufficient level of stability to consider graduation, and are discussing it" in our board report.
