Details:

Other comments:

1) Note that mvdb's -1 from the last VOTE on this topic has now changed to a +1.

2) {scolebourne,rdonkin,sandymac,ebourg} expressed interest in
changing the component name, suggestions included "state",
"statechart" and "StateChartXML". I'll start a new thread to
articulate my views on this.

3) I don't think successful promotion vote results get copied to the
PMC, correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks to everyone who voted.

monitor that my +0 would be a +1.  No biggy, you've got enough +1s.
