I think some of the points needed for graduation should be : - learn to discuss things on the mailinglist - grow a mit diverse community (as it feels like all ppmcs seem to be well connected and for me there's the impression of off list coordination). So you definitely need some outsiders in the ppmc. - during the release I had the impression most of the ppmcs were not doing their ppmc duties in thoroughly evaluating the rc. You need to learn how to release stuff. It worked this time because you had huge help by your mentors and by Julian.

Please supply the content if I miss something. IoTDB is a data store for managing large amounts of time series data such as timestamped data from IoT sensors in industrial applications. IoTDB has been incubating since 2018-11-18. 1. Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating: - Discuss a plan for releasing future versions (e.g., how long time to release a new major/minor version) - Discuss the roadmap of future versions (what features we want to do in the next version) - Write documents for introducing the system architecture and code structures to make it easy to let contributors join. 2. Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware of? - No 3. How has the community developed since the last report? - Some new contributors joined the community. E.g., PR#339 comes from a new contributor and it is really an interesting feature. - Some contributors (who are not committers yet) are more active than before. E.g., Boris Zhu and Jack Tsai. - More users began to report their issues. E.g., issue #171, #184 and #186. As all the above contributions and contributors are not from the institutions/companies where initial committers are, we think it is a good signal that indicates more guys noticing the community. 4. How has the project developed since the last report? - IoTDB releases its first Apache version: v0.8.0 ! - IoTDB is more stable and the performance is far better than before. However, the version is incompatible with previous version (which are released before IoTDB is denoted to ASF). - In v0.8.0, many issues are resolved (see release notes: http://iotdb.apache.org/#/Materials/Release%20Notes ) 5. How would you assess the podling's maturity? Please feel free to add your own commentary. [ ] Initial setup [ ] Working towards first release [ x ] Community building [ ] Nearing graduation [ ] Other: Date of last release: - 08/25/2019 When were the last committers or PPMC members elected? - 07/15/2019 Have your mentors been helpful? - Yes Have your mentors been helpful and responsive or are things falling through the cracks? In the latter case, please list any open issues that need to be addressed. - They are helpful, especially in the process of releasing the first version.
