[PROPOSAL] Graduate!

Ok, so I think we've done everything we need to do, so I'm proposing we
graduate. I've got a draft for the charter we'd submit to the IPMC and then
the board at https://wiki.apache.org/jclouds/GraduationCharter - note that
I did put myself down as VP, but would be perfectly fine with someone else
taking it. I'm just kinda there by default.

For the initial members, well, I'm assuming that translates directly to PMC
- so I didn't include Zach there. I imagine we might have to do a little
juryrigging of commit rights after the graduation finishes, but I didn't
want to blur lines.

I did include only one of the mentors on the top-level PMC, David Nalley.
If any other mentors would like to be on the PMC, just add your names there
- I didn't want to make any presumptions of who wanted in/who didn't, and
have always found the "mentors end up as top-level PMC by default" thing a
bit silly. =)

I also included all the initial committers/PPMC members on the top-level
PMC, including those who haven't been active for a while - again, if anyone
would like to be removed from that list, just ask.

Thoughts?

It's up to the project to decide - but if I remember correctly, we put an
annual rotation in the bylaws - it can repeat, but it has to be explicitly
decided annually.

Text looks fine with me. Having seen a few announcements go by on  
general@, what's the normal practice for VPs? Is it common for them to  
rotate on some schedule, e.g. once a year? Is that something for each  
project to decide.

Also, do we have a list of outstanding items (IP clearance?) anywhere?

After a couple of months now, we can hopefully survive a few more  
hours of nervous tension ;-)

I'd wait (72 hours is not that much).

The vote is open for the entire community, not only mentors and PMC, and it
would be good to let everyone express their opinion, even if it is
non-binding.

Maybe not, but that'd mean all the PPMC and mentors voting. =)

If we wind up with a 100% vote do we need to wait the 72 hours?
