Gossip
Gossip is a system to form peer-to-peer networks using the gossip
protocol.
Gossip has been incubating since 2016-05.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Establish an Apache website for Gossip that makes it easy for new
users and contributors to get started.
2. Focus on large scale multi-node testing.
3. Accrual Failure detection via (
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GOSSIP-22)
Personally, I view "ready for graduation" in terms of the community side
much more than the technical side. Yes, you do typically attract new
devs via technical merit/worth, but the graduation requirements really
have nothing to do with the technical details.
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
No
How has the community developed since the last report?
One contributer has been voted as a committer.
There are 13 watches 24 stars on github
We haven't seen any new contributors, have we?
I would also mention Sean stepping down as a mentor and adopting Drew as
a replacement.
How has the project developed since the last report?

*Note: We completed several Tasks related to our first release that are not
accounted for in this report.
We also have several features/issues that have been frozen waiting for
release
I'm really not a fan of this chart as a measure of how the project has
developed. Would strongly recommend putting this into words: mention
Chandresh moving from a contributor to a committer, acknowledge the
periods of little/no activity, acknowledge the few assorted
contributions from new people.
Date of last release:
Currently in voting
When were the last committers or PMC members elected?
We added a committer during the last report cycle
