I only see infrastructure issues in your list of concerns that would
prevent the graduation of ActiveMQ.
You express an opinion that it should be a TLP but mention that it has a
long way to go before it's ready for that. Can you enumerate what
remains, aside from the infrastructure issues, to be done to graduate as
a TLP? If AMQ has less inspiring aspirations and was to initially land
as a sub-project, can you enumerate what remains to be done to graduate?
IMO, aside from the infrastructure issues, AMQ is good to go as a
sub-project. It should start there and if it's worthy enough, evolve
into a TLP. I see no good reason for it to stay in the incubator at
this time.
