I apologize if this is not the right list on which to ask this question. Can someone point to information about the procedure to propose “graduating” an *existing* sub project to a new top level project?
Specifically, we are working on a proposal to graduate the “Apache Arrow DataFusion”[1] sub project to its own Top Level Project. The DataFusion project has sort of been “incubating” within the Arrow top level project for several years and has grown to the point where it can both stand on its own as well as benefit from more focused community[2]. I searched the archives of this list [3] and did not find anything that seemed relevant. I did find, farther back in history, that the Mahout, Avro and HBase projects appear to have previously “graduated” from sub projects of Hadoop to their own top level projects but could not determine how they did so. Thank you for any guidance you may be able to provide, Andrew [1] https://arrow.apache.org/datafusion/ [2] https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/discussions/6475 [3] https://lists.apache.org/list.html?general@incubator.apache.org [4] https://news.apache.org/foundation/entry/the_apache_software_foundation_announces4
