Re: [DISCUSS] Usergrid BaaS Stack for Apache Incubator

2013-09-25 Thread Marcel Offermans
It would be nice if everybody would started wearing their Apache hats and act 
as individuals that are interested in joining an exciting new project in the 
incubator. I would prefer it if everybody would assume good intentions here. 
We're all collaborating out in the open as a community, so let's all act in 
good faith until proven otherwise.

Re: [DISCUSS] Usergrid BaaS Stack for Apache Incubator

Apache is community over code, but here is more like code over community.

As a community we should be able to tolerate the conflicts of interest. 
Once the project is incubated in Apache, the project belongs to Apache
and direction and future of the project should be decided by the
community, not just the people who bring the project. I do not see that
here. If this would have been a vote, I might -1.

Deepal
 Are you guys wearing Apache hats or WS02 hats?  If you're wearing Apache 
 hats, then I'd expect a bit less fealty to your CEO's request and a little 
 more OK, I see your point, but I'm really excited about the project, here's 
 what I'd like to do on the project, do you mind adding me as an initial 
 committer?.  Granted that email doesn't convey tone-of-voice very well, but 
 the messages from WSO2 employees sound kind of snarky.

 Now, on the general question of piling-on I have to agree with Roy.  The 
 incubator always encourages people to build a community, and then bring that 
 community to Apache.  If an incubating project's existing community is hugely 
 diluted by Apache folks at the incubator proposal stage, then it becomes a 
 code dump, which we try to discourage.  If we care about community over 
 code, then surely we have to show some respect for the community that comes 
 to Apache.  Common courtesy suggest that you offer your help to that 
 community, not impose your help on it.

 Cheers,

 Greg.

 It's been like that for a while in the Incubator, people who sign up
 as initial committers for a podling usually don't have to demonstrate
 any merit.

 When the time comes to graduate the podling, it's perfectly fine to
 ask it to prune its list of committers and PMC members in order to
 keep only people who have demonstrated their committment during
 incubation.
 When OpenOffice.org was brought to the Incubator there was open
 enrollment. There were over 70 Initial Committers. I had no experience
 with
 OpenOffice. I did have an understanding of the ASF. I could help and I
 did.
 It was tough to have such a large list many were OpenOffice.org people
 who
 never really adapted to the ASF. We had all these people on the PPMC.
 When
 graduation time came we managed to reduce the PMC to 25. We left the
 Initial Committers connected. It hasn't really been a problem.

 My point is that without the Initial Committer free for all I think
 that
 AOO would not be as successful as now.

Re: [DISCUSS] Usergrid BaaS Stack for Apache Incubator

2013-09-25 Thread Greg Trasuk

If a podling steadfastly refused to add any other committers, then I think its 
mentors would try to explain why that's a bad thing, and if that behaviour 
continued, then the incubator would vote against graduating it.

It's a community that brings the project.  That community doesn't cease to 
exist just because it is subsumed into Apache.  A TLP's community gets to 
decide who to accept as a new community member, based on merit (with the 
board's oversight to make sure it isn't dominated by a single commercial 
entity).  Why should an incubating project not have the same privilege?  In 
fact, once a project is accepted for incubation, it does have the privilege of 
choosing its own committers, the same as a TLP does (given the oversight of the 
IPMC).  We're talking about a glitch in the system where an existing community 
can be destroyed by volunteering to come to Apache, during the short period 
between proposal of a podling and its acceptance, leaving a code dump.  That 
doesn't seem right.  If we want to encourage a community, then we have to 
respect a community.  It's not that hard, just --ask-- to be a committer on a 
podling rather than just editing the wiki.  Let the creator of the document 
edit it.

 I do not see that

2013-09-25 Thread Alex Karasulu
That's a really nice world Marcel. I'd love to believe that again. However
people will still have ill intentions even here at Apache. Just because we
say all these good things does not mean everyone feels the same way and
economics does rear it's ugly face.

Just look and see the control with which the CEO has ordered back the
minions and they have obeyed. There's nothing Apache Way-ish about this
coordinated effort.

I want to see people put an investment into a community by contributing to
it instead of piling on with zero investment. With such an investment, they
have a vested interest in that community. Without that there's no lose if
it fails and no incentive to make sure the community succeeds.

Combine this and one CEO pulling the strings then that's a bad combination.
That's not how Apache works. But I guess people will find the rhetoric to
justify this some way or another.

Stop talking and start contributing.

Show your commitment by contributing.

Show the present community who has worked on it for 2 years that you
understand their software and care enough to spend the time applying it.

This way when if your CEO says get out, you'll be like GTFO I value and I
invested my time in it. That's different than entering the project with
nothing to lose.

Don't expect people to just drink the cool aid here.

 The question here is not CEO's involvement. But rather the way everything

 interested about the project but I do fear what will happen according to

 wiki - I asked the *previous champion* of the project to add me to the
 initial committer list.

 You guys blame many people from one company coming in and then says that
 they shouldn't backdown. It's contradiction on it's own. So let's see
 things as it is -

 # First I was interested in the User-grid project coming under the apache
 umbrella
 # I wanted to contribute and help the project and mold it into a better one
 # I asked the *previous champion* to add us to the initial committer list
 # I get accused as *pilling* (this partly accuse WSO2 as well)
 # Sanjiva ask us not get involved in the project since the *current
 community* isn't welcoming
 # I withdraw my committer requests since the *current community* is
 accusing us for pilling

 *Minions aren't obliging*. I personally feel disrespected in the way people
 accuse each other for having underlying agendas. I was asking to contribute
 not *kill* the project. If we have a misunderstanding we should clear it
 out without disrespecting each other.

 PS: Also any sane person who looked at all the threads will never feel like
 contributing if they are been accused of. I personally get the feeling that
 apigee has coveted mission in bringing User-grid to Apache and not having
 other's involved in it. But hey all this can be a misunderstanding.

Re: [DISCUSS] [PROPOSAL] Apache Monitoring

2013-09-25 Thread Christian Grobmeier

I also see thor is being used by infra:
status.apache.org

(mentioning, because it has been proposed as name too).

However, it's not so bad. I actually mixed up Baldur with Heimdall, who 
is the actual protector of Bifröst. Baldur was more known because he 
was able to return from Hel (sounds like a good name for a server ;-)

A quick crosscheck told me Heimdall is not used that often.

For those who were concerned about using nordic godnames: Heimdall was 
named as the father of all humans.


He was also known for his horn Gjallarhorn which he blew when danger 
appeared. Most notable he blew that horn when Ragnarökr (the end of our 
time and the fall of the gods) starts.


I imagine the sound of a horn when critical notification of the tool 
happens ;-)


Another idea i just had was Dagr. It old norsk for Day. In old myths 
Dagr is the son of night and he rides his horse Skinfaxi through heaven. 
The crest of the horse lights the earth with golden shimmer. I imagine 
Apache Dagr to shed light on the dark corners of our applications.



Heck, when I was young i read a lot about northern mythology. Its so 
poetic. I should spend some time to read again.

- CoMon
There is Common Software, a company. We might have a trademarks

- Leitstand
Not sure if I like the sound :-), but did not find any repositories 
at
github. From the meaning, a Leitstand is usually something were you 
can
adjust things (more power, less steam and so on). Monitoring would 
be
only a part of it. But on the other hand, it expresses things well 
and

it is a unused word so far.

- Thor
Great name, great god, but unfortunately a lot of people use that 
name

for their code :-(

- Balder / Baldur, also possible: Baldr
I haven't see a lot with that name, but we need to check this more 
in

detail.

From that perspective, Leitstand would be the best catch from a 
unique

point of view. I like Baldr very much from that meaning.

Lets see if there are more names the next days.

VXQuery needs some mentoring

2013-09-25 Thread Vinayak Borkar

Dear Incubator,

The VXQuery podling is currently stalled at being able to add a new 
committer who has undergone a vote with all existing committers in favor 
and the individual has accepted to join the community. However, we are 
currently stuck at being able to make progress on the administrative 
part of making this person a full committer. Any help from anybody 
volunteering to perform the duties of a mentor will be appreciated. We 
are also working on getting a release done and would need some help 
there too. Please help.



Thanks,
Vinayak

SNIP ...

If we could have gotten here without the diversion, then the vote would not
have been derailed as it was.


 I will not offer to mentor
 nor will WSO2 commit our folks to it at this point (yes Alex as CEO I will
 decide whether we commit work time to this) but that's fine - there's
 plenty of other mentors and this project can easily get a community going
 without our help.


WSO2 folks should get involved especially to balance out Apigee. But this
does not happen naturally or correctly in 36 hours. If this podling enters
the Incubator, then all committers should contribute and demonstrate their
commitment to the project ... not to Apigee's CEO or to WSO2's CEO. This is
meritocracy in action and it leads to communities of individuals instead of
companies.

The problem was the unchecked manner, quantity and speed with which your
folks were being added to the committers list The community needs to vet
these guys just as much as anyone else. They should come in and engage this
community and start contributing, and hopefully becoming committers and
PPMC members. This will show the project is on the right track.

The podling initial committers issue

2013-09-25 Thread Dave
How do we go about changing the Incubator Proposal Guide so that the rules
around adding new committers to a podling at proposal time? As much fun as
a good email thread can be, we don't want to have to relive the same ones
over and over.

Can we come up with a consensus view and get it into the guide here?

http://incubator.apache.org/guides/proposal.html#template-initial-committers
Here's what I think we should add:

After a proposal is submitted to the incubator but before a vote is called
the proposing community may choose to add additional committers who ask to
be committers or may chose to defer adding new committers until the podling
is in the Incubator and can use the normal ways of ASF meritocracy,
nominate new committers, etc.

Do people agree with that text?

What's the process for getting a change like this into the guide?

Thanks,
Dave

The normal ways stuff needs to be word-smithed. It's an
obvious slam against the way 90-95% of how other proposals

If you delete everything after is in the Incubator... then
it's a little less biased or leading.

There's no slam against podlings that have gone through an Incubator
process that was less meritocratic. This is not a failure of podlings
exposed to that process. It's just something we can make better, and more
consistent with our standard meritocratic policies for PMCs.


 If you delete everything after is in the Incubator... then
 it's a little less biased or leading.


I don't find this biased or leading. It's a genuine reference to mirror
policies that are the norm for PMCs.

Re: The podling initial committers issue

2013-09-25 Thread Jim Jagielski
Alex, you are constantly mixing up expectations of PMCs
and podlings. Plus, since the ASF did not watch how Usergrid
was handled when it was external, we (the ASF) has no idea
how meritocratic it was... in fact, and I'm sorry to say
this, the viciousness of all this leads me to wonder just
what counted as merit.

Your definition of what is better does not align with
everyones, nor does it align with the experience of
other successful podlings. As you state, what works for
podling A may nor work for podling B (or be better for B),
and we should not force or coerce or strongly imply
one or the other. I suggested changing Dave's addition
to make it unbiased one way or another.

This whole thing started because I made the mistake of
assuming, as Champion, that the Usergrid community was more open
to taking advantage of the proposal phase to ramp up additional
interested developers and leverage their interest, energy
and talents.

 The normal ways stuff needs to be word-smithed. It's an
 obvious slam against the way 90-95% of how other proposals
 have been done and implies that somehow that's wrong.
 
 
 There's no slam against podlings that have gone through an Incubator
 process that was less meritocratic. This is not a failure of podlings
 exposed to that process. It's just something we can make better, and more
 consistent with our standard meritocratic policies for PMCs.
 
 
 If you delete everything after is in the Incubator... then
 it's a little less biased or leading.
 
 
 I don't find this biased or leading. It's a genuine reference to mirror
 policies that are the norm for PMCs.

 We need a fresh new vote thread. I think the discussions have already been

Re: [DISCUSS] Usergrid BaaS Stack for Apache Incubator

2013-09-25 Thread Lieven Govaerts
Hi,


note that one of the WSO2 engineers has already started participating
on the usergrid-dev list with some (small) patches.

So relax a bit, and give people some time to read the existing
docs/code and start interacting with the existing community.
Continuing to escalate this topic is not going to help the Usergrid
project and community, at least not on its way to asf incubation.

A lot of this tension could have been avoided if the Usergrid
community was explained up front that interested developers can ask to
join a future podling as initial committers, and that the incubator
promotes this as 'the right thing to do' (which I didn''t know until
now). I honestly think the WSO2 guys want to put their shoulders under
this proposal and following common Incubator practice they did that by
asking the proposer to be added as initial committers.

Maybe I'm naive here, but I rather follow my positive interpretation
of what happened and give this a chance, then to be negative about it
and risk that people will not bother to give this project  community
a try altogether.

 The question here is not CEO's involvement. But rather the way everything

 wiki - I asked the *previous champion* of the project to add me to the
 initial committer list.

 You guys blame many people from one company coming in and then says that
 they shouldn't backdown. It's contradiction on it's own. So let's see
 things as it is -

 # First I was interested in the User-grid project coming under the apache
 umbrella
 # I wanted to contribute and help the project and mold it into a better one
 # I asked the *previous champion* to add us to the initial committer list
 # I get accused as *pilling* (this partly accuse WSO2 as well)
 # Sanjiva ask us not get involved in the project since the *current
 community* isn't welcoming
 # I withdraw my committer requests since the *current community* is
 accusing us for pilling

 *Minions aren't obliging*. I personally feel disrespected in the way people
 accuse each other for having underlying agendas. I was asking to contribute
 not *kill* the project. If we have a misunderstanding we should clear it
 out without disrespecting each other.

 PS: Also any sane person who looked at all the threads will never feel like
 contributing if they are been accused of. I personally get the feeling that
 apigee has coveted mission in bringing User-grid to Apache and not having
 other's involved in it. But hey all this can be a misunderstanding.

Re: The podling initial committers issue

2013-09-25 Thread larry mccay
I was under the impression that what you describe was the policy - if it is
not then is should certainly be clarified.

In the event that podlings continue to or are to be given such a choice, I
believe that there needs to be a clear understanding between the incoming
community and those volunteers that are shepherding them through the
process as to what the choice is and some of the nuances that will be
encountered in the execution.

If there is no choice there then this consensus step is less necessary and
the process can be more easily executed by the champion, mentors and
incoming community.

That shared understanding seems to be what was missing in this case.

Re: The podling initial committers issue

2013-09-25 Thread Craig L Russell
Hi Dave,

This topic actually did make it into the incubator guides but it's a bit hard 
to find it. From 
http://incubator.apache.org/guides/participation.html#committer:

When a proposal is just a candidate, there are two possible approaches (for 
those interested in committership).

The proposal typically contains a list of initial committers. When a podling is 
bootstrapped, this list is used by the mentors to set up initial accounts. So, 
one way to become a committer for a podling is to be listed on the proposal as 
an initial committer.

The right way to express interest is by a post to the list with a brief 
introduction. Piling onto a proposal (by adding your own name as an initial 
committer) is impolite. Read this thread.

A podling needs to learn how to recruit new committers from its developers. So, 
another way is to show up on the list and start helping with the development. 
This path will help the podling more than adding your name to the list of 
initial committers.

So I think there is already consensus on the bad practice of piling on. And 
please note that I am not suggesting that anything like piling on has recently 
occurred here!

So, if you would like to propose a patch that puts that information in other, 
possibly more easily found, places, go for it.

Craig

Re: [DISCUSS] Release of Apache Allura (incubating) v1.0.0

 Marvin,

 We've been having some discussion and I'd just like to clarify something
 you said:

 Any artifact that is being distributed through Apache channels is
 supposed to adhere to our policies.

 Does this mean that as long as we are releasing the sub-packages on PyPI
 only, and not through Apache channels, that we can leave out the LICENSE
 and NOTICE files (with license headers remaining in the individual files
 and the top-level LICENSE and NOTICE file remaining in the ASF release, of
 course)?

Thanks for the thoughtful inquiry, Cory.

Downstream products are the work of the individuals who prepare them.  Apache
PMCs can't exert oversight over downstream products, we can't VOTE on them or
veto them or provide consistent quality control.

That said, I don't believe you have the option of omitting the NOTICE file
from the PyPI release, or at least the relevant portion of the NOTICE file --
the ALv2 requires propagation of any relevant notices therein to derivative
works.  See section 4d:

http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html#redistribution

It's a little odd to have discussions on an ASF project dev list
about downstream products which deliberately diverge from ASF policy, but so
long as what's being contemplated is legally sound, it's a gray area.  To
avoid a too many cooks situation, I'm inclined to defer to Allura's Mentors,
who presumably have a more complete context about the motivations, costs and
benefits of various alternatives.

HTH,

Marvin Humphrey

Re: [VOTE] Release of Apache MRQL 0.9.0 incubating

2013-09-25 Thread Edward J. Yoon
-1.

The PGP signatures are good, but the .md5 and .sha1 checksums do not
include '*filename', so I get:

$ md5sum -c mrql-bin-dist-0.9.0-incubating.tar.gz.md5
md5sum: mrql-bin-dist-0.9.0-incubating.tar.gz.md5: no properly
formatted MD5 checksum lines found

You'll need to manually create .md5 .sha1 for bin and src packages.
And then, please upload binary and source packages to your private
Apache account or
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/mrql/.

Please attach both nexus repo and dist url links.

October 2013 Report timeline

2013-09-25 Thread Marvin Humphrey
Greets,

Here's the timeline for the Incubator's October 2013 report, which is also
available on the wiki page:

http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/October2013

Wed October 2  -- Podling reports due by end of day
Sun October 6  -- Shepherd reviews due by end of day
Sun October 6  -- Summary due by end of day
Tue October 8  -- Mentor signoff due by end of day
Wed October 9  -- Report submitted to board
Wed October 16 -- Board meeting

There are two tweaks to the schedule as compared with last month: both the
shepherd comments and main report summary have been moved up and are now due by
end-of-day Sunday instead of end-of-day Tuesday, in order to allow more time
for review by Mentors and other interested community members.

Reports are due for the following podlings one week from today. (Joe Schaefer,
if you could run the script to send out reminders, that would be great.)

Celix
Chukwa
DeviceMap
Helix
jclouds
Marmotta
MetaModel
ODF Toolkit
Olingo
Ripple
Samza
Sentry
Spark
Storm
Stratos
Tashi
VXQuery

Re: [VOTE] Release of Apache MRQL 0.9.0 incubating

2013-09-25 Thread Leonidas Fegaras

Edward,
I don't think this is a blocker.
Some incubator releases have used the Maven staging repo as the only 
release candidate artifact.
Example: Apache Onami Parent 3-incubating: 
http://markmail.org/message/ka2rpmbcplhxiiu5
If the Maven staging on Nexus cannot be used like this, it should be 
made clear in http://www.apache.org/dev/publishing-maven-artifacts.html


Also, the common MD5 format is either:
hex{32}
or
hex{32}SP(SP|*)filename
Similarly for SHA1.
Our checksums were generated automatically by mvn release:prepare.
Filenames are actually the same as the cheksum filenames with a 
.md5/.sha1 extension.

Also these checsums are included in my call for vote.
Anyway, I will generate checksums WITH filenames in the release, when it 
gets approved.

Let me know if you still consider it a blocker.

Re: The podling initial committers issue

2013-09-25 Thread larry mccay
I propose that this then be seen as a learning experience and determine
what questions a champion needs to ask of the mentors and incoming
community on the outset in order to execute.

This has been an unfortunate bit of thrashing that was avoidable through
communication. That is not to say that it is anyone's fault or anyone is
right or wrong.

We just need the champion/mentor survey questions established.
