Hi All,

Since entering Incubation in November 2010, the Celix podling been working
towards graduation. The community has grown, releases have been made and
new committers have been added.
Over the last couple of months all items on the checklist for graduation
have been ticked of [1].
This resulted in a, positive, vote on te dev list of Celix itself [2]. Also
the namesearch has been performed [3].
As far as we can tell the project status is up to date [4], and Celix is
ready for graduation.

This thread is to start the IPMC discussion for the graduation of Apache
Celix. The proposed resolution can be found at the bottom of this email.

Any feedback is appreciated, and where needed we will any remaining issues
as soon as possible.

Thanks in advance

Alexander Broekhuis
(PPMC member of Apache Celix)
