Hi Ted,

Now that the deadline has passed for filing podling reports, we can perform a
few more actions.

*   Normalize podling report formatting.
*   Generate list of releases.
*   Categorize the podlings by stage of incubation and create the podling
summary.
*   Edit podlings.xml to assign podlings who did not report a monthly tag
so that they don't fall through the cracks.  See
http://s.apache.org/At0.

See the output of report_runbook.py for more detailed instructions and let us
know if you have questions.

I'll work on the narrative section either tomorrow or Saturday.

The goal is to have everything done by Sunday night so that we can send out a
mature draft on Monday.

+1.  Focus on the positive, and finding new community contributors.
Trying to incubate while regularly talking about well, if we don't make
it, we're going to leave and do X is not a welcoming feeling.

 Usually project names stay with the ASF. I am not sure what the
 policy would be for a project that failed to graduate. I would
 suspect the project could keep it after leaving.  However, if the
 project fails to graduate the likelihood of it succeeding anywhere
 would be minimal.

The ASF owns all trademarks on behalf of our project communities.  For
top level projects (TLPs), the intent is to keep all trademarks: as a
non-profit public charity, we have a duty to try to keep the reputation
of top level projects for the public good.

For Incubating projects, we explicitly note that they are *not* top
level projects, so the policy is different than for TLPs.  If a podling
community fails to graduate, but is acting in good faith, the ASF would
be happy to arrange any trademark transfers back to the original owners.

We have had case(s) in the past where project donors with notable
trademarks asked for an explicit clause confirming the return of the
trademarks if Incubation fails, which we accepted, so that's OK.

In terms of the code, given that any code under SGA or developed during
incubation will be under the Apache license, of course the previous team
(or anyone else) is welcome to fork at any point.

 That's certainly won't be a problem in reality, as Jacopo said.

 What I'm curious about is if what happens if Freemarker gets into the
 Incubator but then sadly later fails to graduate, so then it has to
 continue outside ASF, probably with the earlier owners. I guess then
 we will have to fork the work done during incubation (or can that be
 given back with some kind of SLG?), which is messy (complicates the
 license permanently, right?), but doable. But we will need to get the
 product name back too! Is that promised formally somewhere, or how
 does that go? Well, let's hope no such thing will happen, but still, I
 should know this.

 I think so, with two comments:

 Having just two committers is very small but that can hopefully be solved
 during incubation.

 The proposal does not mention how the Freemarker name/trademark donation
 will be handled, if the copyright owners also own the name that won't be a
 problem. And anyway that can be solved during incubation, but if you can
 make sure before entering incubation that the name can be donated that's
 easier.

I have absolutely no context to lean one way or the other, but if

people might have changed in the meantime. And incubation is a good
way to figure out how people behave, before graduating a project.

Thanks for the clarification! So this also means that if the mentors

releases from the incubator because of some new IP issues cropping up.

 I thought, maybe, after being voted in, but before actual incubation
 starts, the legal guys at ASF start looking at the project. Or
 something like that. Anyway, then I guess we just try to pile up as
 many SGA-s as possible, and only then try voting, as it was suggested.


 Generally speaking here's the order:
 Incubation vote concludes successfully
 1. Migration of 'infrastructure' (source code repo, mailing lists,
 perhaps bug trackers)
 2. Focus begins on resolving IP issues (this work is done by the
 project, and overseen by the mentors) in order to prepare for a
 release.
 3. First release occurs
 . incubation continues.

 The legal affairs committee is generally not going to interact with a
 project unless a mentor or the project makes a request that requires
 them to. There is a relatively straightforward process for getting
 software grants dealt with.

 Going back to your earlier question - occasionally a project will make
 a release or perhaps even two under the old 'home' - but all of that
 energy is divergent from building up your new community and figuring
 out your way around the ASF.

Re: June report prep

Ted can you give some concrete examples, because I see some good feedback
along with folks attempting to address the feedback. Processes updated or
re-iterated, etc... I haven't seen any comments like stop the presses
till... is addressed and that being ignored. More along the lines of an
issue being raised and the community immediately working to address it. For
example most recently giving more time to construct the board report.

Failing to cc general@ on the vote is a serious issue. That's part of the
release process though, it's documented and been followed in previous
releases. Human error this time around afaict (along with the mentors,
myself included, who didn't notice it till later)

 think that the PPMC has internalized the critique at all either.  They seem
 oblivious to process issues and have even voted to try to proceed with
 graduation without really noticing that there are problems.

 This indicates (to me) that the Incubator shepherds and project mentors are
 largely not being understood by the PPMC.  Neither are the release
 procedures being internalized.  The result is that the conversation tends
 to go a bit like

 MENTOR: I see a serious problem X
 PPMC: We will have to address that in the future
 ...
 PPMC: Let's release
 ...
 MENTOR: I see a serious problem Y with your release
 PPMC: We will have to address that in the future
 ...
 ...
 PPMC: Let's graduate


 There is never an argument or contradiction to the assertion of a problem,
 but there doesn't seem to be much attention paid either.  My impression is
 that the community is not actually reading the dev list very carefully.

Re: June report prep

2015-06-05 Thread Ted Dunning

Well, I do have to say that my impressions are based on an accelerated reading 
of the dev list, but I really didn't see much attention paid to issues like the 
preparation of the report, posting a vote result email to the right place and 
so on.  More importantly as far as my impression is concerned I really didn't 
see much reaction to correction.  What I have seen in other communities in 
incubation has been any of several reactions from disputing requirements, shock 
that they had missed a step, or some other indication of attachment to what is 
happening. It is very hard to quantify or point to but I really got sort of a 
dissociated feeling from the mailing list, almost as if the action was 
happening somewhere else and the mailing list was peripheral. For that matter, 
I didn't see design discussions much at all and only saw one external question 
which was shut down with a we don't plan to do this, maybe someday instead of 
the more customary and inviting we don't do this bit would love to hear your 
thoughts and possibly an implementation. 

On the positive side, release reviews appear to be checking the right things, 
although not holding a vote on general@ negates such virtues.

There are two issues here:

1.  What should go in the report.
2.  What actions to take regarding Sentry, if any.

David has already provided his perspective in an excellent Mentor comment on
Sentry.  The formatting needs to be cleaned up, but I think that's the optimal
spot on the report for that information.

David, me, you, or any other interested party could also add a section in the
general narrative at the top of the report mentioning that Sentry has been a
topic of discussion on general@incubator.  I'll probably do that.

The only other thing about commenting on Sentry is that it's important to get
any such material into Monday's DRAFT in order to give the Sentry community
(both contributors and Mentors) sufficient opportunity to review and respond
if necessary.  Adding commentary *after* the DRAFT goes out is dangerous.

With regards to what actions to take, Sentry Mentors David Nalley, Patrick
Hunt, and Joe Brockmeier are all engaged and I'm content to defer to their
judgment.  If they think that reporting monthly for the next three months is
appropriate, they can edit podlings.xml themselves, or they can ask for
someone else to do it and I'm sure John, me, you or another volunteer would
help out.

Re: June report prep

2015-06-05 Thread Ted Dunning
I don't think that the Sentry PPMC actually disagrees with the mentor's
recommendation (and, in fact, at least one person agreed to reverting to
monthly reports).

But in reading the last 4 months of traffic on the dev list, I really don't
think that the PPMC has internalized the critique at all either.  They seem
oblivious to process issues and have even voted to try to proceed with
graduation without really noticing that there are problems.

This indicates (to me) that the Incubator shepherds and project mentors are
largely not being understood by the PPMC.  Neither are the release
procedures being internalized.  The result is that the conversation tends
to go a bit like

MENTOR: I see a serious problem X
PPMC: We will have to address that in the future
...
PPMC: Let's release
...
MENTOR: I see a serious problem Y with your release
PPMC: We will have to address that in the future
...
...
PPMC: Let's graduate


There is never an argument or contradiction to the assertion of a problem,
but there doesn't seem to be much attention paid either.  My impression is
that the community is not actually reading the dev list very carefully.

 Does the Sentry podling (PPMC) disagree with their mentors recommendation?
 I agree with the mentors proposal for both and actually raised this last
 month as an issue.

  Marvin,
 
  Thanks as ever for the coaching.
 
  One question that has come in from David Nalley is how to deal with the
  issue of Sentry.  They have had some problems with process and seem not
 to
  recognize that in the report.  David suggests reverting to monthly
 reports
  as we try to clear up the questions.  I suggest adding a note to the
  report. The situation is a bit problematic because there are several
 people
  in the project who should understand process better and raise this issue
  themselves.

The responsibilities of the Report Manager are documented using a
   script,
report_runbook.py, which generates all the necessary commands.  Ted,
   please
try running this from a checkout of the Incubator Subversion repo:
   
python3 report_runbook.py --month=6 --apache-id=tdunning
   
The first action of the June report cycle is to send the timeline
   email
to general@incubator.  This should be done by the last Wednesday of
  the
month, so that people see it a full week before podling reports are
  due.
Here's a sample:
   
Yay!
   
With the correct version of python, this now works for me.  We won't
  know
what problems I had before, but I don't plan to care too much.
  
   Hi Ted,
  
   Now that the deadline has passed for filing podling reports, we can
   perform a
   few more actions.
  
   *   Normalize podling report formatting.
   *   Generate list of releases.
   *   Categorize the podlings by stage of incubation and create the
 podling
   summary.
   *   Edit podlings.xml to assign podlings who did not report a monthly
  tag
   so that they don't fall through the cracks.  See
   http://s.apache.org/At0.
  
   See the output of report_runbook.py for more detailed instructions and
  let
   us
   know if you have questions.
  
   I'll work on the narrative section either tomorrow or Saturday.
  
   The goal is to have everything done by Sunday night so that we can send
   out a
   mature draft on Monday.
  
   Marvin Humphrey
