Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Add new PPMCs
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware of?
- Graduation discussions have started. There seems to be some disagreement on graduation readiness which led to a broad discussion on general@. Seems like most of it is resolved but still need mentors agreement.
