This consolidates input from Dims, Craig, David, Dain, and Martin 
(thanks, everyone). The original thread starts at

.
I tried to clarify who should do what:
    - "PPMC" means the old PPMC for the graduating project.
    - "PMC" means the new PMC under which the graduating project falls 
(might be the former PPMC for a TLP)
    - "Project" means all the committers on the graduating project.

Stuff that needs to be clarified is marked by ***

What did I miss? changes? corrections?

thanks,

Incubator Graduation Check List
-------------------------------

[ ] Move svn repo from incubator to new location
     [ ] *** ? *** requests that infrastructure move svn repository
Should it be made via email to infrastructure@ or Jira issue?
     [ ] PMC updates the svn-authorization files to provide committers 
access to the newly-named repositories.
     [ ] Project verifies all committers have commit access
     [ ] Project removes the incubator disclaimer README at the top level
     [ ] Project updates the STATUS file to reflect graduation

[ ] Move web site
    [ ] PMC requests UNIX karma from infrastructure@ for committers to 
access new location on people.apache.org
    [ ] Project makes sure all committers know how to and have karma to 
update the new web site
    [ ] Project checks out/deploys the files in the new location
    [ ] PPMC redirects old incubator URL to the new one by editing 
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/public/trunk/site-publish/.htaccess
    [ ] Project verifies the redirect works, then deletes old stuff at
      /www/incubator.apache.org/${PROJECT}
    [ ] PPMC updates http://incubator.apache.org/projects/${PROJECT}.html
      with link to new website location

[ ] Incubator cleanup
     PPMC updates http://incubator.apache.org/projects/index.html 
project from "Currently Incubating" to "Successfully Incubated" table.

[ ] Project updates information in JIRA/Bugzilla for the project

[ ] Move mail lists
     PMC requests that infrastructure@ move mailing lists and archives.

[ ] If the graduating project wants to send out a press release, it must 
be cleared with the PRC.

Additional steps for a TLP:

[ ] A new TLP needs board approval. The PPMC creates a proposal 
including a proposed PMC chair and sends that to the board.
[ ] *** ? *** notifies infrastructure@ about the new TLP (so they can 
add DNS entries ***and anything else***)
[ ] *** ? *** updates www.apache.org to point to new TLP web site.
[ ] *** ? *** adds the new PMC to the board reporting schedule
(update the committee.txt file).
