Thanks Jochen!
The reason for this question was: If RAT is really a generic tool, then
becoming
a TLP is imo a valuable option.
Otoh if RAT is hand tailored for ASF internal needs only, then it's really an
internal project and as such imo doesn't justify the TLP step and should rather
aim to b

I'm +1 for TLP. No need to start creating more umbrella projects. If
finding a chair is troublesome, I'd be more than willing to fill that
gap (although I'm not on the RAT ppmc, nor have written a single line
of code for it). As a mentor and user I love the utility, so keeping

While I second that in general, and I have argued (unsuccessfully) on
the incubator list against arbitrary size constraints for graduating
podlings, still in theory a PMC min size comes from the need to have a
sustainable quorum to vote on releases. If it can get at least 3
people to vote,

Let me repeat: where does it say a TLP must be "at least THIS size" ?
Answer: nowhere.
Small projects are just fine. We're looking at the overall community
and the people to shepherd that community. Those are the RAT
developers and users. Not the Apache Commons or Apache Maven people.

RAT is very important and helpful, but I don't think it's big enough to justify
an own TLP.
It previously was under codehaus and I agree it would best fit under the maven
TLP.

Hi Jochen,
First off, congrats on even sending this email. I've often wondered by RAT is
still lingering in the Incubator when it's been pretty much widely used for a
long time, has a functional community, and keeps plugging forward with its
mission. So, first off, +1 to getting out of the Incu

Infra would be fine with me if infra wanted to absorb rat.

Hi Jochen,
not sure if Commons is the right place sine RAT has a very spezialized

What about Maven TLP?

on behalf of the Apache RAT team, I'd like to announce the

bug fixes and minor improvements over its predecessor, Apache RAT 0.6.
An upgrade is recommended. For details on Apache RAT, see
