Re: First Sedona release

Thx Jia.

Then it falls under optional use
https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#optional

Which is totally fine.

Re: First Sedona release

2020-11-23 Thread Jia Yu
Thank you, Felix. I will use the WIP disclaimer.

To answer Jim's question, GeoTools components use different licenses:
https://docs.geotools.org/latest/userguide/welcome/license.html

GT-main uses BSD, so its binary can be included in Sedona's release.
Other components in GeoTools use LGPL, but Sedona only uses them for CRS
transformation. I already set the dependency scope to "provided" in
Sedona's POM.xml. If a user wants to use CRS transformation in Sedona, they
will have to add some GeoTools library by themselves.

I’d strongly recommend the community to move towards the first release with
the WIP disclaimer

https://incubator.apache.org/policy/incubation.html#releases


As for the LGPL dependency specifically, a replacement will be needed?

Hi all,

Has the fact that one of the dependencies is LGPL (GeoTools) been 
discussed / addressed?  (See 
https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-x)


I'm asking since I don't know if the ASF has any recommended work 
arounds for shipping code with licenses that it does not approve of.


Cheers,

Jim

Hi Pawel and everyone,

Let's do this in the first Sedona release. But can you please first fix the
Python API for our Move-to-JTS PR, and then work on this one? If this
Python RDD-DF Adapter PR might slow down our progress of releasing Sedona
before Christmas, we can postpone it to Sedona 1.0.1 or 1.1.0.

@everyone
Our top priority is to draw the first Sedona release ASAP. Users have been
waiting for almost six months. Let's push hard to publish the first Sedona
release to Maven Central and PyPI before Christmas. In order to make it
happen,

Finalize coding and documentation before Dec 6:
1. I believe the Move-to-JTS PR will be done in around one week.
2. Then we can accept Pawel' Python RDD-DF Adapter PR, if necessary
3. I will work on Sedona documentation.
4. @Netanel will work on Sedona support of Spark 2.4 and Scala 2.11. I will
first create a branch for it to illustrate some necessary changes in Sedona
SQL for Spark 2.4.

Final walk-through before Dec 13
1. Netanel can test the release management for Sedona.
2. Other committers can go through the docs, release notes

Community voting before Dec 20
1. Sedona community voting: before Dec 16
2. Apache Incubator voting: before Dec 20

Push to Maven Central and PyPi before Dec 24

Please feel free to comment if you have any suggestions!

Dear all,

Thanks for all your suggestions.

1. To completely solve the long-overdue JTS issue, I made a Sedona PR

and

two JTS PRs. @Jim Hughes  , @Paweł Kociński
 , I, and probably Martin from JTS will take
care of these PRs in the coming days.
(1) Sedona PR: https://github.com/apache/incubator-sedona/pull/488
(2) JTS PR: https://github.com/locationtech/jts/pull/633
https://github.com/locationtech/jts/pull/634

2. To move forward with the first release, I have deleted the "SNAPSHOT"
in my JTS 1.16 fork.
Most likely, we have to move forward with my JTS 1.16 fork in the first
Sedona release because of the conflict among JTStoGeoJSON, GeoTools, and
JTS 1.17.
So @Netanel Malka   could you please do another
dry-run on the Sedona first release on this Sedona branch:

sedona-1.0-doc:

Thanks,
Jia

Hi Mo,

I can definitely help.  The first step will be for Jia to push a PR for
the JTS changes.  (Since they are his changes, I cannot do this on his
behalf.)

  From talking to the lead JTS developer, he wanted to see the previous
PR (from months/a year+ ago) split up.  I think the initial PR should

be

used to discuss what changes are sensible for JTS and where we'll need
to push some of the changes to Sedona.

Concretely, I noticed that the Sedona JTS fork changes the toString on
Geometry to include printing out the userData.  I imagine that may

cause

trouble for downstream JTS users, so it'd be good to find an
alternative.  One suggestion would to be add a static method in Sedona
for printing a Geometry with its userData object.

Cheers,

Jim

Folks,

I totally agree with Jim on that. Jim, would you like to take the

lead

on that - I trust that you can bring this task to completion. Jia,

would

you please let us know how we can incorporate the changes into the JTS
master branch?

Thanks,

Hi all,

As a JTS committer, I have tried to request that the Sedona project

discuss the desired changes to JTS previously.  I'd still encourage

that.

JTS is an active project and I feel that maintaining a fork of JTS

is

unnecessary and inappropriate.

Cheers,

Jim
