Here is the amended board report based on the feedback: ---------------
Report from the Apache Mahout project Description: The goal of Apache Mahout project is to build an environment for quickly creating scalable performant machine learning applications. Activity: - Apache Mahout’s next generation 0.10.0 was released on April 11, 2015. - Apache Mahout 0.10.1 was released on May 31, 2015. This was a minor bug fix release following 0.10.0. - Apache Mahout now supports scalable Machine Learning on Spark, H2O and MapReduce. - The project has been working closely with Apache BigTop to integrate Apache Mahout into BigTop following a release. - Integration of Apache Mahout with Apache Flink is in the works and is being done in collaboration with Data Artisans and TU Berlin. - Anand Avati was added as a new committer. - Stevo Slavic was as a PMC member. - Team presently working on 0.10.2 release, planned for the week of July 10 2015. Issues: - Off late, most design discussions have been happening off the dev@ mailing lists, the PMC is aware of the problem and is working on addressing the same. PMC/Committership changes: - Currently 25 committers and 14 PMC members in the project. - Stevo Slavić was added to the PMC on Fri May 08 2015 - Anand Avati was added as a committer on Thu Apr 23 2015 Releases: - 0.10.1 was released on Sun May 31 2015 - 0.10.0 was released on Sat Apr 11 2015 Mailing list activity: - [email protected]: - 977 subscribers (down -8 in the last 3 months): - 1324 emails sent to list (1419 in previous quarter) - [email protected]: - 1933 subscribers (down -10 in the last 3 months): - 243 emails sent to list (252 in previous quarter) - [email protected]: - 10 subscribers (up 0 in the last 3 months): - 0 emails sent to list (0 in previous quarter) JIRA activity: - 85 JIRA tickets created in the last 3 months - 74 JIRA tickets closed/resolved in the last 3 months On Sat, Jul 4, 2015 at 2:24 PM, Ted Dunning <[email protected]> wrote: > I think that there should be some commentary added to the report that the > project has lately had a problem with a substantial amount of off-list > design discussions and that the PMC is aware of the problem and working to > fix the problem. > > At least, I think that the PMC is aware of the problem and is working to > fix it. > > > > On Sat, Jul 4, 2015 at 10:18 AM, Suneel Marthi <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Below is the draft of the July Board report, feedback welcome. > > --------------------- > > > > Report from the Apache Mahout project > > > > ## Description: > > The goal of Apache Mahout project is to build an environment for > quickly > > creating scalable distributed machine learning algorithms. > > > > ## Activity: > > - Apache Mahout’s next generation 0.10.0 was released on April 11, 2015. > > A new Math environment called ‘Samsara’ for its theme of universal > > rejuvenation was introduced in 0.10.0 release. > > At Samsara’s core are general linear algebra and statistical > operations > > with supporting data structures. > > Mahout-Samsara reflects a rethinking of how scalable Machine Learning > > algorithms are to be built and customized. > > > > - Apache Mahout 0.10.1 was released on May 31, 2015.
