+1 from me with some additional points - For the section "How has the community developed since the last report?", can we modify it as -
We are seeing a lot of traction in the community, over the improvement in deployment and management of applications using Slider. Good number of emails are pouring in the dev list, primarily on creation of Slider packages for newer applications and willingness to contribute code. Few presentations and meetups were organized by the community, socializing their Slider-ized applications. Occasional patches are being submitted and a number of features added to the recent releases were driven by user needs. If the above paragraph is acceptable, then can we get rid of point 2 in "Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation"? If not, then can we at least modify it to be just - 2. Achieving broader adoption of the existing code For the section, "How has the project developed since the last report?" can we add at the end - We completed release 0.61.0-incubating in February with more complex release artifacts than we had released previously. We also released 0.70.1-incubating in March. Planning is under way for releasing 0.80 in May 2015, with 64 JIRAs resolved and critical business application features like rolling upgrade, co-processor support for dynamic addition of libraries, and support for Docker containers. -Gour On 5/6/15, 6:23 AM, "Ted Yu" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: +1 On Wed, May 6, 2015 at 6:05 AM, Jon Maron <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: +1 > On May 6, 2015, at 8:58 AM, Billie Rinaldi > <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: > > 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.
