Hi All,

I believe the Apache Fluss community is vibrant and the podling is very
active, having successfully completed several releases. I support moving
forward with the graduation.

I suggest addressing the issues on the website's download page,
specifically regarding the links, KEYS, signatures, and checksums.
Additionally, I recommend updating the podling status in podlings.xml and
providing further background on the PMC roster.

+1 for me.

Regards,
JB
