Hi Atri, Glad to hear from you!
I see that you’re not IPMC, although you are listed as a Mentor--https://whimsy.apache.org/roster/ppmc/senssoft <https://whimsy.apache.org/roster/ppmc/senssoft>. I didn’t realize that was why you were staying quiet. Now understanding the situation, I’ve modified those comments in the report. While I understand that your guidance and votes are not binding, we’d love to hear your thoughts and guidance. Feel free to jump into discussion any time. @Lewis, @Dave, @Atri (even if your not in IPMC, yet, you’re still listed as mentor—my .02 cents is that it can’t hurt), please notify me of any additional issues, and please SIGN and post to Incubator wiki NLT JAN 2 2019. Many thanks in advance. Revision Follows: Apache SensSoft Apache SensSoft is a generalized user behavioral logging platform for web pages and thin-client applications Apache SensSoft has been incubating since 2016-07-13. Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation: 1. Extending release process to other parts of the SensSoft software stack. 2. Grow the Apache SensSoft (Incubating) Committer/Community Base. 3. Complete the issues highlighted at the SensSoft Roadmap [1] Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware of? Following a successful VOTE in favor of changing the Podling name [2], the community submitted 12 nominations for new Podling names [2]. The names are collected for easy reference on our confluence space [3]. The community downselected the names [2] JIRA tickets have been written to track progress on research on PODLINGNAMESEARCH board [4]. How has the community developed since the last report? The community has been: -discussing reaching out to other open source projects to identify other potential communities (analytical technologies) to drive developments, as well as increase interest in the Podling. -discussing research applications with university research labs in machine learning and social computing. -the community has onboarded 2 new Mentors—Dave Meikle and Atri Sharma -updating documentation on wiki and READMEs to improve community growth How has the project developed since the last report? Project maturity roadmaps (Wiki) and version release plans (JIRA) continue to be maintained. JIRA boards continue to be maintained How would you assess the podling's maturity? Please feel free to add your own commentary. [X] Initial setup [X] Working towards first release [X] Community building [ ] Nearing graduation [ ] Other: Date of last release: 2018-03-14 When were the last committers or PPMC members elected? Arthi Vezhavendan was added to Committer base on 2017-01-24 Dave Meikle was added to PPMC on 2018-11-24 Atri Sharma was added to PPMC on 2018-11-24 Have your mentors been helpful and responsive or are things falling through the cracks? Chris Mattmann and Paul Ramirez have been removed as mentors in the last month. Lewis McGibbney has been extremely helpful and has actively participated in our PODLINGNAMESEARCH. Dave Meikle has actively participated in our PODLINGNAMESEARCH process and has pledged to assist in growing the community following a determination of our PODLINGNAMESEARCH results. Atri Sharma has offered his mentorship, but is not yet elected to IPMC, and has not been able to offer binding votes.
