Qpid entered into the incubator November 2006, and has made releases, is
in the
process of closing down another minor release and well on the way to the
next
major release, added new committers, and cleaned up Karma prior to
graduation
vote.
At this point the Apache Qpid community with support from its mentors
feels that
it is ready to graduate to an official top level project at Apache as
indicated by the
community and vote. We would like the resolution attached to this email
to be presented
to the board for consideration at the next board meeting.
The charter and diversity have both been discussed:
