This page is a draft page describing the Process Sub-Committee's recommendation on workable processes for BPs to graduate between states.
The different BP states are shown below:
Blueprint Graduation Reviews
Graduation reviews move a BP between the states of Proposed to Incubation to Mature to Core.
The Akraino community elevates Termination reviews move a BP to the next state based on a TSC votebetween any state to Archived.
In order to make the process both practicable and non subjective a number of criteria (checks) are defined that must be met to graduate for each review.
