Re: [DISCUSS] Graduation to a top-level project

2016-12-20 Thread Davor Bonaci
A quick update: a meeting of the ASF Board of Directors is scheduled for
later this week, at which the Board may consider taking action on our
graduation proposal!

That said, even if the Board does enact it, any public announcement is
expected to be delayed to the first half of January due to the holidays.

In the meanwhile, we are still an Incubator podling and should continue to
operate as such until the ASF announces otherwise... so, please hold your
speculation and enthusiasm for another few weeks ;-)

Hi everyone,
With all the progress we’ve had recently in Apache Beam, I

think

it

is

time
we start the discussion about graduation as a new top-level

project

at

the

Apache Software Foundation.

Graduation means we are a self-sustaining and self-governing

community,

and
ready to be a full participant in the Apache Software

Foundation. It

does

not imply that our community growth is complete or that a

particular

level

of technical maturity has been reached, rather that we are

on a

solid

trajectory in those areas. After graduation, we will still

periodically

report to, and be overseen by, the ASF Board to ensure

continued

growth

of

a healthy community.

Graduation is an important milestone for the project. It is

also

key

to

further grow the user community: many users (incorrectly) see

incubation

as
a sign of instability and are much less likely to consider us

for a

production use.

A way to think about graduation readiness is through the

Apache

Maturity

Model [1]. I think we clearly satisfy all the requirements

[2].

It is

probably worth emphasizing the recent community growth: over

each of

the

past three months, no single organization contributing to

Beam

has

had

more
than ~50% of the unique contributors per month [2, see

assumptions].

That’s
a great statistic that shows how much we’ve grown our

diversity!


Process-wise, graduation consists of drafting a board

resolution,

which

needs to identify the full Project Management Committee, and

getting

it

approved by the community, the Incubator, and the Board.

Within

the

Beam

community, most of these discussions and votes have to be on

the

private@

mailing list, but, as usual, we’ll try to keep dev@ updated

as

much

as

possible.

With that in mind, let’s use this discussion on dev@ for two

things:

* Collect additional data points on our progress that we may

want to

present to the Incubator as a part of the proposal to accept

our

graduation.
* Determine whether the community supports graduation. Please

reply

+1/-1

with any additional comments, as appropriate. I’d encourage

everyone

to

participate -- regardless whether you are an occasional

visitor

or

have

a

specific role in the project -- we’d love to hear your

perspective.


Data points so far:
* Project’s maturity self-assessment [2].
* 1500 pull requests in incubation, which makes us one of the

most

active

project across all of ASF on this metric.
* 3 releases, each driven by a different release manager.
* 120+ individual contributors.
* 3 new committers added, 2 of which aren’t from the largest

organization.

* 1027 issues created, 515 resolved.
* 442 dev@ emails in October alone, sent by 51 individuals.
* 50 user@ emails in the last 30 days, sent by 22

individuals.


Thanks!

Davor

Hi everyone,
With all the progress we’ve had recently in Apache Beam, I think it is time
we start the discussion about graduation as a new top-level project at the
Apache Software Foundation.

Graduation means we are a self-sustaining and self-governing community, and
ready to be a full participant in the Apache Software Foundation. It does
not imply that our community growth is complete or that a particular level
of technical maturity has been reached, rather that we are on a solid
trajectory in those areas. After graduation, we will still periodically
report to, and be overseen by, the ASF Board to ensure continued growth of
a healthy community.

Graduation is an important milestone for the project. It is also key to
further grow the user community: many users (incorrectly) see incubation as
a sign of instability and are much less likely to consider us for a
production use.

A way to think about graduation readiness is through the Apache Maturity
Model [1]. I think we clearly satisfy all the requirements [2]. It is
probably worth emphasizing the recent community growth: over each of the
past three months, no single organization contributing to Beam has had more
than ~50% of the unique contributors per month [2, see assumptions]. That’s
a great statistic that shows how much we’ve grown our diversity!

Process-wise, graduation consists of drafting a board resolution, which
needs to identify the full Project Management Committee, and getting it
approved by the community, the Incubator, and the Board. Within the Beam
community, most of these discussions and votes have to be on the private@
mailing list, but, as usual, we’ll try to keep dev@ updated as much as
possible.

With that in mind, let’s use this discussion on dev@ for two things:
* Collect additional data points on our progress that we may want to
present to the Incubator as a part of the proposal to accept our graduation.
* Determine whether the community supports graduation. Please reply +1/-1
with any additional comments, as appropriate. I’d encourage everyone to
participate -- regardless whether you are an occasional visitor or have a
specific role in the project -- we’d love to hear your perspective.

Data points so far:
* Project’s maturity self-assessment [2].
* 1500 pull requests in incubation, which makes us one of the most active
project across all of ASF on this metric.
* 3 releases, each driven by a different release manager.
* 120+ individual contributors.
* 3 new committers added, 2 of which aren’t from the largest organization.
* 1027 issues created, 515 resolved.
* 442 dev@ emails in October alone, sent by 51 individuals.
* 50 user@ emails in the last 30 days, sent by 22 individuals.

Thanks!

2016-11-22 Thread Jason Kuster
An enthusiastic +1!

In particular it's been really great to see the commitment and interest of
the community in different kinds of testing. Between what we currently have
on Jenkins and Travis and the in-progress work on IO integration tests and
performance tests (plus, I'm sure, other things I'm not aware of) we're in
a really good place.

Re: [DISCUSS] Graduation to a top-level project

2016-11-22 Thread Jean-Baptiste Onofré

Hi,

First of all, I would like to thank the whole team, and especially Davor 
for the great work and commitment to Apache and the community.


Of course, a big +1 to move forward on graduation !

Regards
JB

Hi everyone,
With all the progress we’ve had recently in Apache Beam, I think it is time
we start the discussion about graduation as a new top-level project at the
Apache Software Foundation.

Graduation means we are a self-sustaining and self-governing community, and
ready to be a full participant in the Apache Software Foundation. It does
not imply that our community growth is complete or that a particular level
of technical maturity has been reached, rather that we are on a solid
trajectory in those areas. After graduation, we will still periodically
report to, and be overseen by, the ASF Board to ensure continued growth of
a healthy community.

Graduation is an important milestone for the project. It is also key to
further grow the user community: many users (incorrectly) see incubation as
a sign of instability and are much less likely to consider us for a
production use.

A way to think about graduation readiness is through the Apache Maturity
Model [1]. I think we clearly satisfy all the requirements [2]. It is
probably worth emphasizing the recent community growth: over each of the
past three months, no single organization contributing to Beam has had more
than ~50% of the unique contributors per month [2, see assumptions]. That’s
a great statistic that shows how much we’ve grown our diversity!

Process-wise, graduation consists of drafting a board resolution, which
needs to identify the full Project Management Committee, and getting it
approved by the community, the Incubator, and the Board. Within the Beam
community, most of these discussions and votes have to be on the private@
mailing list, but, as usual, we’ll try to keep dev@ updated as much as
possible.

With that in mind, let’s use this discussion on dev@ for two things:
* Collect additional data points on our progress that we may want to
present to the Incubator as a part of the proposal to accept our graduation.
* Determine whether the community supports graduation. Please reply +1/-1
with any additional comments, as appropriate. I’d encourage everyone to
participate -- regardless whether you are an occasional visitor or have a
specific role in the project -- we’d love to hear your perspective.

Data points so far:
* Project’s maturity self-assessment [2].
* 1500 pull requests in incubation, which makes us one of the most active
project across all of ASF on this metric.
* 3 releases, each driven by a different release manager.
* 120+ individual contributors.
* 3 new committers added, 2 of which aren’t from the largest organization.
* 1027 issues created, 515 resolved.
* 442 dev@ emails in October alone, sent by 51 individuals.
* 50 user@ emails in the last 30 days, sent by 22 individuals.

Thanks!

[DISCUSS] Graduation to a top-level project

Hi everyone,
