Re: [VOTE] accumulo graduation

Likes:

    - Aggregates a number of open-source projects to perform a very
    specific and needed task,
    - Provides the integration and versioning of aggregated projects
    creating the integration code needed  between them,
    - Innovates by providing a solution to Cloud data security,
    - Represents a solid donation of code from a Government entity and
    creates a test-case for the donation of publicly funded applications
    back to the public,
    - Multiple code donations around-the-clock indicate that the
    contributor and committer base is growing and strong.


Concerns:

    - lack of current documentation makes this tool difficult to set up
    and run,
    - multiple Jenkins build failures over the past few months indicate
    a need for a more comprehensive check-in policy which would likely
    be added to the bylaws.


Good job folks, keep up the improvements!
