[VOTE] Graduation Board Resolution

[Alex Boisvert-3]

Hi everybody,

Here is the proposed resolution (see below) to be submitted to the IPMC and
later to the Board to establish ODE as a Top Level Project and therefore
graduate out of the incubator.

If you are not familiar with the graduation process, you can learn more at
http://incubator.apache.org/guides/graduation.html

At this time, I would like to start a vote on the proposed resolution which
extends to the entire community, not just committers or mentors.  As part of
the graduation process, it's important to hear the voice of the community as
whole to determine the level of governance of the project.

thanks!
alex

I still think the stuff after "a Ruby-based build system"
is more marketing mumbo-jumbo and not suited for a
resolution.

If you think "Ruby-based build system" is specific enough, then I'm fine
removing the rest.

I'll update the proposed resolution on the wiki with your other changes.
