Distributedlog Podling Report Draft - November 2016

[Jia Zhai]

Thanks a lot for your suggestions Flavio.
And Guys, Here is a draft. Please help comments on it.
Regards.
-Jia

=

DistributedLog

DistributedLog is a high-performance replicated log service. It offers

durability, replication and strong consistency, which provides a fundamental

building block for building reliable distributed systems.

DistributedLog has been incubating since 2016-06-24.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1.   Continue to grow the community, especially people from outside
Twitter.
[Ask the PMC for helping check the number of people subscribed to dev@ mail
list]
2.   Improve documentation.
3.   First Apache release


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?

1. Increase in contributions from community.

2. Lots of engagement on documentation.

3. Improved responsiveness of committers to community members


How has the project developed since the last report?

1. Documentation has improved for project build and project deployment.
Added more information on  community page.

2. Involved more discussion of new ideas and bring in new features. Include
major discussions like 'transaction support', 'batch commit' .etc.

3. First release and repackaging of the project under apache namespace are

   being discussed, such as:

- Pull requests for repackaging.

- Twitter folks are working on porting twitter's bk version back to
community

- Expect to cut a release on Nov.

Re: Distributedlog Podling Report Draft - November 2016

[Jia Zhai]

Thanks so much for your suggestions. Here is a new draft:

===
DistributedLog

DistributedLog is a high-performance replicated log service. It offers
durability, replication and strong consistency, which provides a
fundamental building block for building reliable distributed systems.
DistributedLog has been incubating since 2016-06-24.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1.Continue to grow the community, and increase diversity of community.
2.Improve documentation, including documentation of project and processes.
3.Successful releases.

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?
1. Increase in contributions from community.
   - 8 created and 4 resolved issues in community JIRA in October.
2. Lots of engagement on documentation.
   - Enhance existing documents,
   - Setup guides for developers and committers.
3. Increased traffic on the mailing list, in particular, due to committers
engaging more actively with contributors.
   - we have 35 people subscribed mail list.
   - 125 messages to distributedlog mail list in October.

How has the project developed since the last report?
1. Documentation has improved for project build and project deployment.
Added more information on  community page.
 New added pages:
  https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/DL/Developer+Guide
  https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/DL/Committer+Guide
2. Involved more discussion of new ideas and bring in new features. Include
major discussions like 'transaction support', 'batch commit', "EventStore"
. etc.
3. First release expected on November, and repackaging of the project under
apache namespace are being discussed.
- Pull requests for repackaging.
- The major blocker is https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DL-2. We were
expecting to let DL depends on an official bk version.

+1 (non-binding)

for both distributedlog_2.10 and distributedlog_2.11:
- verified packages (md5, asc and sha1 all look good)
- the source package build and test all run successfully.
- NOTICE, DISCLAIME, License headers look good.

Hi All,
Because DL is merged to BK, if BK is going to release 4.5.0, it would be
good that DL can release 0.5.0 as well.  What do you think of this？ :)

[Discuss] Try Github issues for Issue tracking

[Jia Zhai]

Hi all,

Recently, Apache BookKeeper community discussed and decided to have a try
on "github issues" for issue tracking,  What do you think of DistributedLog
also have a try on “github issues”? :)


At here, you could find the related discussion of BookKeeper here:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/bookkeeper-dev/201706.mbox/thread?2


And here is a proposal for BookKeeper github issues:

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/BOOKKEEPER/BP-9+-+Github+issues+for+Issue+Tracking


Thanks a lot.
