[DISCUSS] Apache Brooklyn graduation as TLP

The Brooklyn community and project made significant advances in the past 
months and believes it is ready to graduate as a top-level project.

The Apache Brooklyn is very active. The PPMC doubled in size and 
increased diversity in the past year. A few release candidates and two 
very solid final releases in the past few months. There were 
presentations about Brooklyn at at least 3 big conferences I attended 
this year (including ApacheCon in Austin). Talks about Brooklyn are 
scheduled at ApacheCon EU in Budapest next week, it would be great to 
use the occasion and venue to announce the graduation plans.

A vote passed unanimously on the dev@ list (7 +1 votes). Please find 
below references to the graduation preparation artifacts:
* discussion on dev list [1]
* vote thread [2]
* approved podling name search [3]
* incubation status [4]
* proposed resolution below

We believe Apache Brooklyn is ready to become a top-level
project and if the IPMC agree we will move to a formal vote. There are a 
few more items to be updated on the project status page during the next 
couple of days.

Many thanks to the mentors and the IPMC for the support,
Hadrian

There is no need to resort to strong language. In any language!

That's just a clause in the template board resolution proposal; most
podlings don't need it, but also don't trouble to remove it from the
proposed resolution. We've talked about it before on this list. IMO we
should just remove that paragraph from the template.

Stercus bovis. Any (p)PMC can decide to discuss bylaws any time it
likes. And I have to wonder where you got the idea that the Board should
ratify such bylaws.

Why does the pPMC feel the need to aks the board of the ASF to charge the
TLP to be formed to create set of bylaws?
If the pPMC feels the need for bylaws, they should work on that during the
incubation phase and present those to the board for ratification and as
part of the TLP establisment request.
