Graduation gratulations and endorsements

[Pierre Smits <pi...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

The Board of the Apache Software Foundation has accepted our resolution to
graduate and voted  unanimously to establish our project as a Top-Level
Project on Dec 20th, 2017.


At the moment we are undertaking steps to have the project migrated from
incubation, and we aim to have send (in collaboration with the V.P. of
Marketing & Publicity) an official announcement on January 9th, 2018,
followed by project statements on social media to boost awareness and grow
our community.


We would like to include in that announcement some endorsements and/or
gratulations. Therefore, our request  to you is:

Please help us gather endorsements and/or gratulations on our graduation
from your customer and/or employer.

We would especially appreciate statements about how the Apache Trafodion
product (and/or participation in the project) supports the business or
personal goals. Please have these sent (or forwarded) to
private@trafodion.apache.org


Best regards, and my season's greetings to you.


Pierre Smits
Vice President and Chair of the Apache Trafodion PMC.
