DB PMC Hat On: I'm quite comfortable discussing this.
One committer has been added while in incubation, and there are a couple more people under consideration. The user and developer community has grown, even if the committer distribution is worrisome. Very much worth talking about, though!

Considering the recent discussion about diverse communities and such, this may appear ill-timed. However..
I'd like to open the discussion about Derby graduating from the incubator. The project has accomplished all of its stated goals save for the acquisition of several additional committers. I attest that the project is being operated according to the Apache guidelines and method, and that the community has adopted them and taken them to heart.
Since Derby isn't heading for a TLP position (unless someone wants to open that particular ball for some reason), I think they've demonstrated the viability and sustainability. I would support its graduation IFF the DB project took on, as a specific priority, building the developer base. (I.e., taking an active role in the project and not just accepting Derby and letting it continue as it has.)
Does anyone think this discussion is premature? - -- #ken P-)}
