There has been a great deal of discussion on the general@incubator
list about what a board report should contain. The main takeaway is
that the IPMC wants to see evidence of a plan to move towards
graduation. I always point people towards the template at
http://community.apache.org/boardreport.html

There are also some notes on the incubator  at
http://incubator.apache.org/guides/ppmc.html

Specifically the IPMC wants to see an indication of how close/far the
project is to graduation and, most importantly, what concrete steps
the project will be taking to address those issues.

One specific item that I think you should address here is the
diversity in the community. It's not clear to outsiders how diverse
the community is and whether there is a need to focus on this issue.

Finally I wouldn't say voting a committer in is a graduation concern.
