[VOTE][policy] Remove post-graduation check list from policy document

the current policy document unnecessarily specifies actions to be done
after graduation. i would like to see these removed from policy and
replaced by a link to the graduation guide.

see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INCUBATOR-55 or the diff at
the bottom of this document

Re: [VOTE][policy] Remove post-graduation check list from policy document

Posted by Craig L Russell <Cr...@Sun.COM>.
+1 with one comment.

The guides/graduation.html is absent from the left navbar. If you  
update the stylesheet so it appears there, then I'm ok with removing  
it. Maybe it belongs as a sub-bullet under Podling Guides as the last  
entry.

<agree/>

What has to happen beyond and outside of incubator isn't actually our policy
- it's http://www.apache.org/dev/ policy.
