Team, Here is a draft of what I plan to submit to the ASF board for our quarterly report. Please review and provide feedback on anything you think needs adding or clarified.
awesome to see how our community is growing! Will submit in a day or so. Thanks Joe ======== ## Description: - Apache NiFi is an easy to use, powerful, and reliable system to process and distribute data. ## Issues: - There are no issues requiring board attention at this time. ## Activity: - First RC for MiNiFi which is a subproject of Apache NiFi is being reviewed and voted upon. It will be Apache MiNiFi 0.0.1. - Second RC for Apache NiFi 0.7.0 is being prepared for a vote. The first RC was cancelled due to licensing concerns and a couple blockers found by community members during testing. - Apache NiFi 1.0.0 is nearing RC stage. Looks like it could happen in a couple of weeks but significant effort remains to pull that release together. - Numerous meetups and conference presentations featuring Apache NiFi and its collaborative role with other Apache technologies have occurred in the past few months. Social media commentary and Q&A for NiFi on various channels (twitter, stackoverflow) has increased considerably. - We have created a new issues mailing list for automated updates from Github and JIRA so that we can keep the signal to noise level on the dev list higher. ## Health report: - Activity on mailing lists, JIRA, Git remains strong. - During the last review cycle we have new committers and PMC progression. - The pipeline of committers working toward PMC status remains strong and the community documented how to progress to PMC https://s.apache.org/Ogm7 - However, we are not without risk. Supporting both the 0.x and 1.x lines is taxing. We've documented the support plan https://s.apache.org/I9Rf but as it is early we need to closely review this to ensure it is working. - The rate of PR production to PR review and disposition means we have a growing trail of PRs. We need to focus on this in the coming quarter. - The rate of JIRA creation to JIRA disposition means we have a growing number of JIRAs. We need to focus on this in the coming quarter. ## PMC changes: - Currently 14 PMC members. - Andy LoPresto was added to the PMC on July 7 2016 - Joe Percivall was added to the PMC on May 16 2016 - Last PMC addition was Andy LoPresto on July 7 2016 ## Committer base changes: - Currently 22 committers. - New commmitters: - Pierre Villard was added as a committer on Sun May 29 2016 - James Wing was added as a committer on Tues May 10 2016 ## Releases: - nifi-0.6.1 was released on Mon April 18 2016 ## Mailing list activity: - [email protected]: - 337 subscribers (up 69 in the last 3 months): - 1006 emails sent to list (802 in previous quarter) - [email protected]: - 267 subscribers (up 33 in the last 3 months): - 4046 emails sent to list (2412 in previous quarter) ## JIRA activity: - 487 JIRA tickets created in the last 3 months - 265 JIRA tickets closed/resolved in the last 3 months
