Linkerd is currently an inception stage CNCF project.
To be accepted to incubating stage, a project must meet the inception stage requirements plus:
-
Document that it is being used successfully in production by at least three independent end users which, in the TOC’s judgement, are of adequate quality and scope.
- https://github.com/linkerd/linkerd/blob/master/ADOPTERS.md
- (Several non-public adopters that we know of that we can share privately if you desire.)
-
Have a healthy number of committers. A committer is defined as someone with the commit bit; i.e., someone who can accept contributions to some or all of the project.
-
Demonstrate a substantial ongoing flow of commits and merged contributions
