[DRAFT] Incubator PMC Board Report - January 2018

[John D. Ament]

All,

Below is the current draft on the incubator report.  We have a high number
of podlings not reporting.  They are CC'd in hopes they can report.

Incubator PMC report for January 2018

The Apache Incubator is the entry path into the ASF for projects and
codebases wishing to become part of the Foundation's efforts.

There are currently 53 podlings in the inubator.  We added two new podlings
in December, and executed four podling releases.  Two new PMC members
joined, in support of mentoring podlings.

Airflow

Airflow is a workflow automation and scheduling system that can be used to
author and manage data pipelines.

Airflow has been incubating since 2016-03-31.

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

  1. We have completed 4 apache releases. We are nearing graduation!
  2.
  3.

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. Since our last podling report 3 months ago (i.e. between Sept 25 & Dec
26, inclusive), we grew our contributors from 315 to 360
  2. Since our last podling report 3 months ago (i.e. between Sept 25 & Dec
26, inclusive), we resolved 221 pull requests (currently at 2018 closed
 PRs)
  3. Since being accepted into the incubator, the number of companies
 officially using Apache Airflow has risen from 30 to 123, 9 new from
the last podling report.


How has the project developed since the last report?
See above : 221 PR resolved, 45 new contributors, & 9 new companies
officially using it.


How would you assess the podling's maturity?
Please feel free to add your own commentary.

IPMC/Shepherd notes:




Amaterasu

Apache Amaterasu is a framework providing continuous deployment for Big
Data Pipelines.

It provides the following capabilities:

Continuous integration tools to package pipelines and run tests.
A repository to store those packaged applications: the applications
repository.
A repository to store the pipelines, and engine configuration (for
instance, the location of the Spark master, etc.): per environment - the
configuration repository.
A dashboard to monitor the pipelines.
A DSL and integration hooks allowing third parties to easily integrate.

Amaterasu has been incubating since 2017-09.

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

  1. Prepare the first release
  2. Grow up user and contributor communities
  3. Prepare documentation

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?

  * A planning meeting for the next version was held online and most tasks
have been assigned to contributors
 * Tow new contributors have started setting up their dev environment and
are getting support from the community

How has the project developed since the last report?

  * YARN support is almost completed and a PR is planned to be issued
within the next couple of weeks
  * The Amaterasu cli tools for version 0.2.0-incubating is awaiting YARN
support to be completed for integration
  * the above tasks are the last two outstanding issues before releasing
version 0.2.0 and the community is getting ready for its first release in
the incubator

[DRAFT] Incubator PMC Board Report - December 2017

[John D. Ament]

All,

Below is the current draft of our report.  As of now, we have 5 reports
missing and 4 reports not signed off on.  I hope we can get that resolved
in the next few days.  I have copied those podlings impacted.

Incubator PMC report for December 2017

The Apache Incubator is the entry path into the ASF for projects and
codebases wishing to become part of the Foundation's efforts.

There are currently 53 podlings incubating.  In the month of November, we
executed six releases, added one IPMC member and received the resignation
of another (which is in flight until their sole podling retires).  We added
two podlings to our roster, have a few more in the pipeline and have one
podling planning to graduate this month.

We are a day late. Will post tonight. Would appreciate any input. Its a bit
barebones but not bad either given we did two releases in this period and a
load of JIRAs resolved. Thanks.

HTrace has been incubating since 2014-11.

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

  2. Continue to develop and release stable HTrace incubating artifacts
  3. Continue to explore the integration of the HTrace framework into
  other Apache products

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?

  39 subscribers to dev@ (up from 38) and about 200 messages
  since last report (up from 55 in previous period though many
  are build 'failures')

 by 5 different contributors.


Date of last release:

Incubator PMC/Board report for Dec 2015 ([ppmc])

[Marvin]

Dear podling,

This email was sent by an automated system on behalf of the Apache Incubator 
PMC.
It is an initial reminder to give you plenty of time to prepare your quarterly
board report.

The board meeting is scheduled for Wed, 16 December 2015, 10:30 am PST. The 
report 
for your podling will form a part of the Incubator PMC report. The Incubator 
PMC 
requires your report to be submitted 2 weeks before the board meeting, to allow 
sufficient time for review and submission (Wed, Dec 2nd).

Please submit your report with sufficient time to allow the incubator PMC, and 
subsequently board members to review and digest. Again, the very latest you 
should submit your report is 2 weeks prior to the board meeting.

Thanks,

The Apache Incubator PMC

Submitting your Report
--

Your report should contain the following:

 * Your project name
 * A brief description of your project, which assumes no knowledge of the 
project
   or necessarily of its field
 * A list of the three most important issues to address in the move towards 
   graduation.
 * Any issues that the Incubator PMC or ASF Board might wish/need to be aware of
 * How has the community developed since the last report
 * How has the project developed since the last report.
 
This should be appended to the Incubator Wiki page at:

  http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/December2015

Note: This is manually populated. You may need to wait a little before this page
  is created from a template.

Mentors
---
Mentors should review reports for their project(s) and sign them off on the 
Incubator wiki page. Signing off reports shows that you are following the 
project - projects that are not signed may raise alarms for the Incubator PMC.

- In addition to the number of subscribers should include the number of
posts to the mailing lists
- last committer/pmc members elected needs to be the names and date for
