Eric is very tenacious about keeping it open and he is very timely with the mailing list discussions and submitted patches. Not sure if it's the case here (I don't follow Chukwa in detail), but I know some projects where a highly active lead developer has actually held back the community even though he had all the best intentions in mind. Instead of directly jumping in and fixing issues that people encounter, it's often a better long-term idea to help them come up with a solution themselves. That approach obviously doesn't work with all users, but with some such empowerment can be highly rewarding. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. [*] I'm inclined to give it another shot but I'm wondering what criteria do we use to decide that we've done all we've can. I guess the best criteria is when people run out of ideas or the energy to implement them. Basically incubation of a project makes sense for as long as there's ongoing progress towards graduation. Once progress is no longer being made, it's time for a podling to exit the Incubator in one way or another.

Basically, give them 75% of the patch but then leave them hanging so that they have to take action to get their concern addressed. Not everyone wants to be a core contributor, so things won't always work out. And if you think the feature or bug fix is important, at some point you have to give up on the recruitment effort and just finish it yourself. But it's worthwhile to hold off for a few weeks if you can.

At this point, I think it would be fine (and the Tika PMC would be fine) with Any23 graduating to its own project but perhaps when there is consensus within the Any23 community that graduation is on the horizon, then during that DISCUSS thread we could reach out to the Tika PMC to see if there are any thoughts/objections to that. Any23 has demonstrated to me most or all of the criteria for graduation so far: 1. Diverse community 2. Active contributors 3. Friendly, apache communication 4. Willingness to vet the licenses of the software, clean upstream IP 5. Election of new contributors 6. Synergy with other Apache projects Once the 0.7.0 release is out, I would recommend that the Any23 community start discussing graduation (and will do so on list post facto).

Please see my personal comments below. Thank you Being an Incubator Shepherd is a new and rotating position that supplements a podling's Mentors. Jukka assigns shepherd volunteers to 1 to 3 projects to look at each month. What I like about this is the variety that Jukka chooses. So, if Any23 is still in the Incubator in 3 months you will have a different Shepherd. I may take you up on the offer to join the community and if I do it will be as someone who is interested in the project and how it fits in a Java stack around SOLR, Tika, POI, PDFBox, ODFToolkit(incubating). I guess I'm going to need to look into Apache Jackrabbit Oak as well.

Re: Shepherding: chukwa, mesos, directmemory
As the most recent person added as a Chukwa committer I think we should give the project a chance. I think Chukwa has suffered from a lack of interest in the Hadoop community, maybe adding more committers would help. I think we need people who would write articles about Chukwa in technical publications more than we need people who code.

Cabrera l...@toolazydogs.com wrote: So the idea is to give the contributors committership and hope things take off? Seems like a good idea to me, especially if Chukwa hasn't tried doing that before. Eric does want to make one more release. Maybe that will churn some enthusiasm. Eric is very tenacious about keeping it open and he is very timely with the mailing list discussions and submitted patches. Not sure if it's the case here (I don't follow Chukwa in detail), but I know some projects where a highly active lead developer has actually held back the community even though he had all the best intentions in mind. Instead of directly jumping in and fixing issues that people encounter, it's often a better long-term idea to help them come up with a solution themselves. That approach obviously doesn't work with all users, but with some such empowerment can be highly rewarding. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. [*] I'm inclined to give it another shot but I'm wondering what criteria do we use to decide that we've done all we've can. I guess the best criteria is when people run out of ideas or the energy to implement them. Basically incubation of a project makes sense for as long as there's ongoing progress towards graduation. Once progress is no longer being made, it's time for a podling to exit the Incubator in one way or another. [*] Apparently originally by Anne Isabella Ritchie in 1885 (http://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/give-a-man-a-fish.html), though the proverb is widely attributed to various other sources ranging from the Bible to Tao Te Ching.

This issue makes me think that the main purpose of going through the incubator was to inoculate the project's IP, not that there is anything wrong with that. If it is true that the IP is correct is there any reason for the Incubator not to transfer the EasyAnt project to the Ant PMC? Does that make sense? Note I used the term transfer to recognize a different situation or standard from graduation to a TLP. Somehow the IPMC would need to certify the IP in the podling and then the target PMC would have to accept the podling. VOTEs: (1) PPMC - if it can. (2) Target PMC - to confirm that it wants the podling's IP. (3) IPMC - to confirm IP and transfer. (4) Board - do the bylaws require a fourth vote? Just a thought.
