Hi Alan,

I don't have access to update the wiki. Is that something that you can help
me resolve? In the mean time, I pinged one of the other committers
yesterday to update the wiki with the following report (but haven't heard
anything back yet):

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

1. Add more committers (see "issues" below).
2. Do more releases (see "issues" below).
3. Grow community (do more meetups and try and get more people interested
in hacking on codebase rather than just using the software).

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware
of?

We've had issues getting enough votes for adding committers and doing
releases. We recently added a new mentor (thank you Jakob Homan!) who
promptly helped out on one of our stalled releases, but we still have yet
to conclude a committer vote (to be clear, the vote has received unanimous
+1's from all existing committers, but nothing from any mentors).

How has the community developed since the last report?

We performed a "meetup" at AirBnB which drew a large crowd. The mailing
list continued to be active in December. People are generally interested
and excited about the project, but we have not gotten very many developers
working in the codebase. We hope to rectify this in the coming months by
holding some developer specific meetups to talk about working on and
contributing to the project.

How has the project developed since the last report?

There were a considerable number of bug fixes, especially around the use of
Linux cgroups for doing resource isolation. There was also a lot of work
done on the slave/worker component of the system to enable upgrading Mesos
without killing all tasks/processes that it is managing. See
https://reviews.apache.org/dashboard/?view=to-group&group=mesos.
