"...talks had halted as one member has not agreed to proceed with
graduation..." thats a little harsh, I just questioned the level of
activity and said it would be an easier decision if Wink was more
active.

Well, I was really trying to interpret the concern that Ant raised in the previous graduation discussion. I like the report in current form. I've signed off… Thanks Luciano!

What I was trying to mention is that, in the context of graduation, we
need "at least 3 legally independent committers and there is no single
company or entity that is vital to the success of the project". We do
have it, but most of them became inactive last year. What you seem to
be saying is to don't count on those and only consider the active
committers as the dev community. Did I get it right ? Anyway, I'll
make the updates on the current report...

Thanks Luciano! I have one comment regarding:

"Top issues before graduation:

* Getting more active dev community"

I think the specific issue is about the diversity/size of the active dev community. Slightly different than a "more active" dev community. IMO, the core issue isn't necessarily the level of activity, but the diversity/size doing the dev... 

Thoughts?
