Re: Creating Aurora user@ and announcements@ lists?

[Henry Saputra]

Yep, it is time to have user@ and announcements@ lists.

+1 for both

[RESULT] [VOTE} Release Apache Aurora 0.9.0 debs

[Bill Farner]

Thanks to everyone who participated in vetting our debs!  The latest vote
was successful, with the following vote tally:

+1: 3 (binding), 1 (non-binding)

I will follow up with AURORA-1482 and AURORA-1483 using these packages.


Cheers,

Bill

[DRAFT] [REPORT] Apache Aurora

[Bill Farner]

Please take a moment to read through a draft of the board report i have
prepared for Aurora.  I'm happy to take any suggestions for edits prior to
submitting this tomorrow.


## Description:
 - Apache Aurora lets you use an Apache Mesos cluster as a private cloud.
It supports running long-running services, cron jobs, and ad-hoc jobs.

## Activity:
 - Release planning underway (0.10.0)
 - Major effort recently to produce official installable packages (RPMs and
debs)
   - released of debs for 0.9.0, closed to release of RPMs
   - planning support for unofficial/unsupported nightly packages

## Health report:
 - There has been healthy development on Aurora for this period, though we
hope to see growth in adoption, contributions, and committers.  There has
been significant effort to minimize the effort required to evaluate
alternatives to Aurora (e.g. Kubernetes, Marathon), which we believe
impedes our adoption rate.  Packaging and better introductory documentation
will our focus to address this.

## Issues:
 - There are no issues requiring board attention at this time

## LDAP committee group/Committership changes:

 - Currently 15 committers and 13 LDAP committee group members.
 - No new changes to the LDAP committee group or committership since last
   report.

## Releases:

 - 0.9.0 was released on Thu Jul 23 2015

## Mailing list activity:

 - dev@aurora.apache.org:
- 147 subscribers (up 11 in the last 3 months):
- 293 emails sent to list (437 in previous quarter)

 - revi...@aurora.apache.org:
- 33 subscribers (up 0 in the last 3 months):
- 1298 emails sent to list (1419 in previous quarter)

 - iss...@aurora.apache.org:
- 37 subscribers (down -1 in the last 3 months):
- 753 emails sent to list (844 in previous quarter)


## JIRA activity:

 - 136 JIRA tickets created in the last 3 months
 - 103 JIRA tickets closed/resolved in the last 3 months

[Jake Farrell]

Report must contain the dates for our last committer and PMC additions,
otherwise looks good

"support for unsupported" - phrasing is weird, perhaps change to something
more neutral like "setting up infrastructure for nightly packages"

Jake - thanks, that section of the report was auto-generated by
