Subject:        [DRAFT] Incubator PMC Board Report - January 2018



All,

Below is the current draft on the incubator report.  We have a high number
of podlings not reporting.  They are CC'd in hopes they can report.

instance, the location of the Spark master, etc.): per environment - the
configuration repository.
A dashboard to monitor the pipelines.
A DSL and integration hooks allowing third parties to easily integrate.

Amaterasu has been incubating since 2017-09.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

  1. Prepare the first release
  2. Grow up user and contributor communities
  3. Prepare documentation

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?

FreeMarker

FreeMarker is a template engine, i.e. a generic tool to generate text
output
based on templates. FreeMarker is implemented in Java as a class library
for
programmers.

FreeMarker has been incubating since 2015-07-01.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

  We have a large user base but a rather small group of committers.
  This was actually expected, given the maturity (and topic) of the
project.
  While the FreeMarker 3 branch, which was started 11 month ago, will be
much
  more appealing for contributors, development and growth due to that will
  certainly take a long time. In other respects the project is mature and
  ready for graduation.

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?

  We are eager to graduate but we're afraid that the number of active
  contributors will prevent that in the foreseeable future. But remaining
in
  the incubator for several years is a growing problem as well, so at this
  point we will attempt graduation.

How has the community developed since the last report?

  We have two new PPMC members, Jacques Le Roux and Woonsan Ko.

How has the project developed since the last report?

  There was further discussion about graduation, and we will very soon have
a graduation vote on
  the podling list. We have done some preparations, like we have switched
from freemarker.org
  to freemarker.apache.org as our official domain, created the DOAP file,
adjusted home page
  content to align better with the recommendations.

  We have also made a new release (2.3.27-incubating).

Gobblin

Gobblin is a distributed data integration framework that simplifies common
aspects of big data integration such as data ingestion, replication,
organization and lifecycle management for both streaming and batch data
ecosystems.

Gobblin has been incubating since 2017-02-23.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

  1. Make frequent releases

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?

  None

How has the community developed since the last report?

* Gobblin has seen an exciting growth on the community front. It has grown
into a diverse self-sustained community, where non-committer members are
often seen helping out each other on mailing lists and Gitter IRC (on most
days more than the committers). Many contributors have also stepped up and
contributed with important features and taken up ownership of critical
components.
* 70% of commits have been from non-committer contributors.
* Email stats since last report:
  [email protected] : 92
  [email protected] : 671
* Heavy activity on Gitter IRC channel (while the community uses Gitter
IRC, it also does self policing and consciously moves any discussion-thread
beyond casual chatter to the mailing lists)
* There have been 148 Commits since last report:
    git log --format='%ci' | grep -cE
'(2017-0(9))|(2017-1(0|1|2)|(2018-0(1)))'
* 103 ie. 70% of those commits were by non-committers:
   git log --format='%ae %ci' | grep -E
'(2017-0(9))|(2017-1(0|1|2)|(2018-0(1)))' | cut -d ' ' -f 1 | sort | uniq
-c | sort -n
* Recurring video conference based meetup has been happening every month
with healthy attendance.
* Gobblin was presented and well received in various conferences eg. Strata
etc.
* More companies have adopted Gobblin, and different members of PPMC have
received positive feedback and interest.

How has the project developed since the last report?

* Several new powerful features have been added to Gobblin that have
enhanced Gobblin to be more valuable in Stream processing as it is in batch
data world.
* Gobblin interestingly has started to evolve into an ecosystem rather than
a singular platform with addition of major sub-systems such as
Gobblin-as-a-Service (PaaS for Gobblin as well as non-Gobblin systems),
Global Throttling (can be used with any distributed system) and existing
Gobblin metrics.
* Documentation and stability has improved across the board.
* Release v0.12.0 is being voted on right now.
* The Apache way has become the normal way of doing things.

How would you assess the podling's maturity?

Gobblin has made good progress on the Community front and overall as a
project. However, before calling it nearing graduation, we will like to
make atleast couple of releases.

Gossip

Gossip is an implementation of the Gossip Protocol.

Gossip has been incubating since 2016-04-28.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

  1. Continue making releases
  2. Grow community by getting more active committers


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?

There have been a few code additions that are in the review process

How has the project developed since the last report?

Activity has slowed since the last report.

How would you assess the podling's maturity?

We need more active committers to become more mature.
Please feel free to add your own commentary.

The GSOC period had several spurts of activity. We need to begin creating
more tickets that new committers can get involved in and find more people
to do diligent code reviews.

Livy

Livy is web service that exposes a REST interface for managing long running
Apache Spark contexts in your cluster. With Livy, new applications can be
built on top of Apache Spark that require fine grained interaction with
many
Spark contexts.

Livy has been incubating since 2017-06-05.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

  1.
  2.
  3.

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?



How has the community developed since the last report?



How has the project developed since the last report?


How would you assess the podling's maturity?
Please feel free to add your own commentary.

MXNet

Apache MXNet is an open-source, scalable, distributed and high-performance
deep learning framework that allows you to define, train, and deploy deep
neural networks on a wide array of devices, from cloud infrastructure to
mobile devices. It is highly scalable, allowing for fast model training,
and supports a flexible programming model and multiple languages. Apache
MXNet allows you to mix symbolic and imperative programming flavors to
maximize both efficiency and productivity. Apache MXNet is built on a
dynamic dependency scheduler that automatically parallelizes both symbolic
and imperative operations on the fly. A graph optimization layer on top of
that makes symbolic execution fast and memory efficient. The Apache MXNet
library is portable and lightweight, and it scales to multiple GPUs and
multiple machines.


Apache MXNet has been incubating since 2017-01-23.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

  1. Establish a predictable release process consistent with Apache Way --
ONGOING.
  2. Grow the community -- ONGOING.
  3. Bring website up to Apache standard -- ONGOING
  4. Identify remaining ICLAs or SGAs that need signing -- ONGOING

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?

 None

How has the community developed since the last report?

a) Various Slack channels, dev@ mailing lists, and user discussion forums (
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__discuss.mxnet.io&d=DwIFaQ&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=S1_S7Dymu4ZL6g7L21O78VQZ53vEnAyZ-cx37DPYDyo&m=EiINg_pD-OOs2NCf27vgOHFQscJtM7a4mwftG_PoIeY&s=ugaOYs-valEa-AlfCJARCuNgB_zwd1fA-8BxuyeK3kE&e=
) are being used actively. The contributors have
been working on having all discussions on the public dev@ mailing list as
much as possible. If some discussions happen in private, they are
eventually brought out on dev@ with all perspectives well-represented. This
is an ongoing improvement process where the discussion will be put on the
public dev@ mailing list so that the Apache MXNet community gets a fair
chance in influencing the final outcome/decision of the discussion.


 b) O’Reilly published a series of blogs about MXNet, including ones with
deep matrix factorization using Apache MXNet:
