AriaTosca

ARIA TOSCA project offers an easily consumable Software Development Kit(SDK)
and a Command Line Interface(CLI) to implement TOSCA(Topology and
Orchestration Specification of Cloud Applications) based solutions.

AriaTosca has been incubating since 2016-08-27.

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

  1. Grow the community and enroll new committers.
  2. Rotate Release Managers for future releases.
  3.

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



How has the community developed since the last report?

 Seeing some contributions now from independent developers.
 Active discussions on mailing lists with potential users and contributors.

How has the project developed since the last report?

 The project has had its first two releases in July 2017 - 0.1 and 0.1.1

 Important new features have been added:
   - Resumable workflows
   - Scaling nodes during service creation
   - AWS plugin support
   - Additional work towards being more TOSCA-compliant (e.g. interface
inputs support)
   - Additional usage examples have been added, including ones that use
IaaS plugins (Openstack, AWS), as well as one covering a real-life NFV
use-case (Clearwater example)
   - More comprehensive tests, including for documentation generation, and
parallelization of test suites
   - Standardized the release process with automatic shell scripts,
allowing anyone to easily create additional releases for the project
   - 64 JIRA issues have been resolved since the last report

How would you assess the podling's maturity?

IPMC/Shepherd notes:




Daffodil

Apache Daffodil is an implementation of the Data Format Description
Language (DFDL) used to convert between fixed format data and XML/JSON.

Daffodil has been incubating since 2017-08-27.

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

  1. Initial setup (finalize infrastructure setup, get SGAs in place, move
code/documentation/bugs/etc. over to Apache infrastructure, modify licenses)
  2. Establish guidelines regarding release cycles, code reviews, bug
management, etc.
  3. Work to grow the community to establish a diversity of backgrounds and
expertise

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

  None
