How does this draft look?
Slider
Slider is a collection of tools and technologies to package, deploy, and
manage long running applications on Apache Hadoop YARN clusters.
Slider has been incubating since 2014-04-29.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Building a diverse developer and user community
2. Achieving broader adoption of the existing code and slider-deployable
applications (examples: HBase, Accumulo)
3. Making slider better at deploying other applications, so improving
takeup.
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?
We are getting some questions from users on the list and an occasional

were driven by user needs.
