Project progression, movement from one stage to another, allows projects to participate at the level that is most appropriate for them given where they are in their lifecycle.

# II. Stages - Definitions & Expectations

CNCF projects have a maturity level of sandbox, incubating, or graduated. Archived is for projects no longer in active development. The maturity level is a signal by CNCF as to what sorts of enterprises should be adopting different projects. Projects increase their maturity by demonstrating their sustainability to CNCF’s Technical Oversight Committee: that they have adoption, a healthy rate of changes, committers from multiple organizations, have adopted the CNCF Code of Conduct, and have achieved and maintained the OpenSSF Best Practices Badge.

This governance policy sets forth the proposal process for projects to be accepted into the CNCF.
The process is the same for both existing projects which seek to move into the Foundation, and new projects to be formed within the CNCF.

Sandbox projects should be early-stage projects that the CNCF TOC believes warrant experimentation.
Sandbox projects should be early-stage projects that the CNCF TOC believes warrant experimentation.

* New projects that are designed to extend one or more CNCF projects with functionality or interoperability libraries.
* Independent projects that fit the CNCF mission and provide potential for a novel approach to existing functional areas (or are an attempt to meet an unfulfilled need)
* Projects commissioned or sanctioned by the CNCF, including initial code for CNCF WG collaborations, and "experimental" projects
* Any project that realistically intends to join CNCF Incubation in future and wishes to lay the foundations for that

To apply for inclusion into the Sandbox, projects should use [this form](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1bJhG1MuM981uQXcnBMv4Mj9yfV5_q5Kwk3qhBCLa_5A/edit).
The TOC will review on a rotating basis, currently every two months as of June 2020.

## Project Graduation Process: Sandbox to Incubating

Incubating projects are required to undergo due diligence as a part of the process to move from Sandbox to Incubation. Due Diligence is driven by a TOC sponsor, with two weeks for public comment before a vote is called.

Additionally, the TOC might recommend that you apply for Incubation stage. This requires extra work and due diligence so it’s not a possible outcome to move directly to Incubation from this lightweight annual review.

It is fine for a project to stay in the Sandbox indefinitely while it is still active, but if a project has genuinely stalled we can save everyone’s effort by archiving it.
