Stage 3: Impact
Stage 3: Impact Stage (formerly 'Top-Level')
Definition
The Impact Stage is for projects that have reached their growth goals and are now on a self-sustaining cycle of development, maintenance, and long-term support. Impact Stage projects are widely used in production environments and have large, well-established project communities with a number of contributors from at least two organizations.
