Re: [VOTE] Apache Drill 0.6.0-incubating release

2014-10-10 Thread Grant Ingersoll
Not sure, and maybe a bit pedantic, but is the NOTICE file a little thin 
(practically non-existent) given the number of 3rd party libs present?  I'm not 
an expert on what is required there, but when I compare it to projects I'm 
familiar with like Solr and Mahout, they are vastly different.  

I _believe_ the NOTICE file is where you are supposed to put NOTICES from 
licenses that require it. (someone else here can probably help)

Beyond that, and I'm not sure if it is a blocker or not, things look good to 
the extent I tested (packaging, keys, basic run through)

So, -1 if the NOTICE thing is a thing that needs to be dealt with now.
+1 if it is not.

In either case, that would be binding.

Re: [VOTE] [PROPOSAL] cTAKES for the Apache Incubator

2012-06-06 Thread Grant Ingersoll
 of the developers are not paid to work specifically on cTAKES, so there 
 is little reliance on salaried developers.
 
 === Relationships with Other Apache Products ===
 NLP is often used in search and other algorithms that work with unstructured 
 data, thus cTAKES is likely to be useful to the Lucene and Solr communities. 
 It also aligns nicely with both Mahout and UIMA as well as OpenNLP.
 
 === A Excessive Fascination with the Apache Brand ===
 We think the project aligns nicely with the goals of the ASF to disseminate 
 source code to the public free of charge. Clinical NLP has long been the 
 subject of cutting edge research, but is often lacking in community and 
 shared knowledge. We believe that by bringing cTAKES to the ASF, the Apache 
 brand will help deliver clinical NLP capabilities to a much larger audience 
 and likewise a cutting edge project like cTAKES can further the ASF brand by 
 providing users with tried and true, as well as new, natural language 
 processing capabilities.

Re: [VOTE] Accept Lucene.Net for incubation

2011-01-27 Thread Grant Ingersoll
 the work of the Lucy project into Lucene.Net at
 some point as well. There is also a strong interest in creating .NET
 ports of ASF's Solr, Tika, Hadoop, and others. While that would fall
 outside of the scope of this project, there may be overlap in terms of
 the committers between those projects and sharing of code and
 methodologies pioneered in the Lucene.Net project.
 
 === An Excessive Fascination with the Apache Brand ===
 Our desire to maintain Lucene.Net's affiliation with Apache has less
 to do with the brand and more to do with our conviction that
 developing the project 'The Apache Way' under Apache institutions is
 in Lucene.Net's best interests. However, we have to acknowledge that
 during its time as a Lucene subproject, Lucene.Net has not always
 fulfilled certain key requirements for an Apache project. In
 particular, it has failed to release early, release often. Also,
 despite making significant progress in expanding its user community,
 it has failed to engage with the community and remain responsive to
 community needs.
 
 By rebooting the project with a new list of motivated and enthusiastic
 committers, we expect to avoid the trap that ensnared Lucene.Net's
 first incarnation: we will release early, release often, accumulate
 users, nurture contributors, and grow our community.
 
 == Documentation ==
 * Current Lucene.Net website: http://lucene.apache.org/lucene.net/
 * Current Lucene.Net Subversion repository:
 http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/lucene.net/
 * Current Lucene.Net mailing lists:
 http://lucene.apache.org/lucene.net/ (See info under Mailing Lists
 heading)
 
 == Initial Source ==
 We will continue working with the existing Lucene.Net codebase located
 at: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/lucene.net/
 
 We will also attempt to contact the coordinators of the following
 Lucene.Net forks and incorporate their work into the Lucene.Net
 project:
 
 * Lucere - http://lucere.codeplex.com/
 * Lucille - http://lucille.codeplex.com/
 * Aimee.Net - http://aimee.codeplex.com/
 
 == Source and Intellectual Property Submission Plan ==
 All source code referred to in this project (existing codebase and
 that of forks) is already licensed under the Apache 2.0 License. There
 should be no conflicts in this regard.
 
 == External Dependencies ==
 The only external dependencies represented in any of the proposed code
 are on unit testing and mocking frameworks, all of which have ASF
 compatible licenses.
 
 == Required Resources ==
 === Mailing lists ===
 * lucene-net-dev
 * lucene-net-commits
 * lucene-net-users
 
 Lucene.Net already has lucene-net-dev, lucene-net-users, and
 lucene-net-commits mailing lists under lucene.apache.org. While these
 could be deactivated and the memberships migrated to the appropriate
 lists under incubator.apache.org, leaving the lucene.apache.org
 archives as read-only, we would prefer to keep the mailing lists the
 same, rather than moving to incubator.apache.org. The purpose of that
 would be to remain engaged with our community, with minimal
 disruption.
 
 === Subversion Directory ===
 Lucene.Net already has a Subversion directory at
 https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/lucene.net. In keeping with
 naming conventions, it could be moved to
 http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/lucene.net.
 
 === Issue Tracking ===
 Lucene.Net already has a JIRA tracker: Lucene.Net (LUCENENET)
 
 === Other Resources ===
 Lucene.Net already has a MoinMoin wiki at
 http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-lucene/lucene.Net. It can be moved to
 standard Incubator wiki placement. There is currently no content of
 value in the wiki.

 Legal uses the current Lucene.Net build in their products and so, has

 reason Lucene.Net was chosen by Troy initially for the discover-e
 Legal products is due to his strong interest in the project. This
 interest was well established before working for discover-e Legal, and
 is independent of its needs. The same is true for Chris Currens. So,
 even though there is commercial support for their work on this project

 = FINAL =
 'Subitted on Wednesday, January 12th, 2011'
 
 = Lucene.Net - A .NET port of Lucene =
 == Preface ==
 Lucene.Net is a sub-project which is being spun off from the Lucene
 TLP but is not yet ready for graduation. We propose to address certain
 needs of the project by transitioning to an Incubator Podling.
 
 == Abstract ==
 Lucene.Net will be a port of the Lucene search engine library, written
 in C# and targeted at .NET runtime users.
 
 == Proposal ==
 Lucene.Net has three aims. First, it will maintain the existing
 line-by-line port from Java to C#, fully automating and commoditizing
 the process such that the project can easily synchronize with the Java
 Lucene release schedule. Second, it will be a high-performance C#
 search engine library. Third, it will maximize its usability and power
 when used within the .NET runtime. To that end, it will present a
 highly idiomatic, carefully tailored API that takes advantage of many
 of the special features of the .NET runtime.
 
 == Background ==
 Lucene.Net, began as a independent project focused on creating a
 line-by-line, API for API port of Java Lucene to C#. It continued
 successfully in this way and eventually became a ASF Incubator project
 in April of 2006 and graduated as a sub-project of Lucene in October
 of 2009.
 
 The last year has been challenging for the project. The committers who
 originally lead the project have stopped maintaining it and
 development has stagnated since June of 2010. The user community has
 spoken out requesting a change in philosophy and direction for the
 project, but those requests have been unheeded. This has led to a
 number of forks outside of the ASF. We would like to bring those forks
 back in as branches and be responsive to the needs of community
 without the need for multiple non-ASF forks.
 
 The Lucene PMC wants to see the project continue to thrive and has
 indicated that a return to the Incubator is an appropriate step, with
 the end goal to build of building a new team of committers and
 maintaining a steady release cycle meeting the previously stated
 goals. Because Lucene is working to move away from being an umbrella
 project, a long term goal of the Lucene.Net project is to graduate to
 an ASF TLP.
 
 == Rationale ==
 There is great need for a search engine library in the mode of Lucene
 within the .NET runtime. Individuals naturally wish to code in their
 language of choice. Organizations which do not have significant Java
 expertise may not want to support Java strictly for the sake of
 running a Lucene installation. Developers may want to take advantage
 of C#'s unique language features and the .NET runtime's unique
 execution and interoperability model. Lucene.Net will meet all these
 demands.
 
 Apache is a natural home for our project given the way it has always
 operated: user-driven innovation, lively and amiable mailing list
 discussions, strength through diversity, and so on. We feel
 comfortable here, and we believe that we will become exemplary Apache
 citizens.
 
 == Initial Goals (to be completed before Feb 2011) ==
 * Build a new list of committers
 * Make a 2.9.2 compatible release as quickly as possible (this
 already exists, it just needs to be packaged correctly)
 * Update website, documentation, etc.
 * Create a well documented repeatable and fully automated language
 porting process
 * Start a .NET style API branch, either by incorporating some or
 all existing fork projects or by starting a new branch to this end
 
 == Current Status ==
 === Meritocracy ===
 We understand meritocracy and will fully embrace this concept in our
 project management methodology. One of the proposed committers, DIGY,
 has been a committer on the current Lucene.Net project since November
 2008. Prescott Nasser has been a contributor on the project,
 submitting patches, documentation, and website enhancements. Three of
 the other proposed initial committers, Troy Howard, Chris Currens and
 Sergey Mirvoda are both already actively involved in other open source
 projects, either as committers of code

 The way other projects manage this is to define the jar dependencies
 in a build file, and get the build process to download the jars.
 
 If using Maven, this is trivial, as declared dependencies are
 automatically downloaded.
 
 It's not that difficult when using Ant either - see for example the
 Tomcat or JMeter projects.
 
 There is also an Ant Maven task:

 and Apache Ivy

 though I've not used either of those.

the project specifically is asking for guidance from the PMC as to whether the 
name change is acceptable to the PMC and thus to the ASF, assuming the Board 
doesn't intervene.  We really do not want to go through another name change, so 
I really would hope all people view this as a speak now or forever hold your 
peace kind of thing and we can move on to the matters of graduation.

[VOTE] Change name of Lucene Connectors Framework to Apache Connectors Framework

2010-09-08 Thread Grant Ingersoll
Hi,

After much debate both here and on the connectors mailing list, the LCF 
community has voted (see 
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-connectors-dev/201008.mbox/browser)
 and would like to officially change our name to be the Apache Connectors 
Framework.  We would like the Incubator PMC to vote to make this official.

[] +1 Change the Lucene Connector Framework to the Apache Connector Framework
[] 0 Don't care
[] -1 Don't change it

Since this is a procedural vote (http://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html), 
it is a majority rule vote with binding votes coming from IPMC members.  The 
vote is open for 72 hours.

Here's my +1 (binding).

Thanks,
Grant

 My take:
 
 1. come up with a name.
 2. check for exixting uses of that name
 3. if it passes #2 then get support of your PPMC
 4. Propose it to IPMC. 
 5. Vote on the IPMC about the name.
 
 If you want, you can add #4a: discuss with IPMC whether a vote is really
 required for this, in which case you might be able to skip #5, but that

Well, I would argue we did all that, with the exception of a formal IPMC vote 
(although we did ask here).  It seemed to pass muster until a week later, a 
fair amount of time after we went and made the changes.

Just to clarify, LCF is not a subproject of Lucene at the moment, since it is 
in the Incubator.  The Lucene PMC was sponsoring LCF and is willing to continue 
to do so.  Nothing else project wise would change other than the name at this

Re: Incubator Board Report June 2010

2010-06-15 Thread Grant Ingersoll
 was accepted into the incubator on 11 May 2010. Status information is
 available at http://incubator.apache.org/projects/whirr.html.
 
 Progress since entry into the incubator:
 
 All the initial Incubator infrastructure items are now complete. The code
 hosted in the Hadoop contrib area has been moved to Whirr's subversion tree.
 Associated JIRAs have been moved to Whirr's JIRA.
 
 Plans for the next period:
 * Import the Whirr Java source
 
 Top three items to resolve before graduation:
 * Increase community involvement in the project
 * Make several incubating releases
 * Support at least three services on Whirr
 
 Any Issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board need to be aware of?
 
 None at this time.
 
 
 = Zeta Components =
 
 Zeta Components is a high-quality library of loosely-coupled PHP components.
 It has entered incubation on 2010-05-21. Therefore the project is still in
 ramp up phase.
 
 3 most important issues to be tackled:
 
 * Create initial incubating infrastructure.
 * Move project and community to ASF.
 * Get developement based in ASF moving again.
 
 Mailing lists have already been created. Available are:
 
 * dev   zeta-...@incubator.apache.org
 * user  zeta-comm...@incubator.apache.org
 * commits   zeta-us...@incubator.apache.org
 * private   zeta-priv...@incubator.apache.org
 
 Website space has been reserved. Jira has been requested. All CLAs have been
 sent. Most of them have been processed and therefore most user accounts have
 been requested.

Re: Anyone using ASF software in bio-informatics?

2010-03-10 Thread Grant Ingersoll
For starters:

Lucene:

http://gmod.org/wiki/Lucegene/

I also know of several big Pharma companies using it, but can't say names.  You 
can likely guess, as they are instantly recognizable global brands.

TREC Genomics focused on info retrieval on genome data.  Lucene is used by NIST 
to setup the relevance pool, etc.

I know many people that use it to search PubMed and the like and then correlate 
it with outputs from internal documents/experiments/etc.  

Hadoop

One I saw: http://www.slideshare.net/cloudera/hw09-hadoop-for-bioinfomatics

I'm sure others in the Hadoop community can name some more.  I recall seeing 
some others go by my radar, but don't see URLs.  These days, when your talking 
TBs of data for a single sequencing run (or others), you need large scale data 
crunching capabilities

Mahout

I'd ask on mahout-u...@lucene.a.o.  Nothing comes to mind, but we have a lot of 
lurkers there, so it might hit home.  Mahout is a very likely candidate for 
this kind of work.

Some basic searching for Lucene genetics, etc. will lead you to a good deal 
of results.

HTH,
Grant

Couple of notes just to follow up here:

Postgres is BSD so it is fine to include.

LGPL dependencies are optional and may not be included in the distribution.  We 
should look to replace over time.

We may not need the Sun libs, but I believe those are all included by other ASF

That's fine, it pretty much falls in with the libs that one needs for 
Documentum, etc.  We can't redistribute them.  In this case, though, it is dead 
simple to automate the downloading of it via Ant (or Maven) so the user will 
still be able to build it.

Might also look at http://commons.apache.org/vfs/filesystems.html, as there 
seems to be some work there on a CIFS implementation.

I'm still showing a lot of files w/o licenses that should be licensed.  Let me 
upload a simple build script that you can use to help determine the files.  

You'll need to get RAT: http://incubator.apache.org/rat/ and copy over the two 
JAR files to your ANT lib directory: apache-rat-0.7-SNAPSHOT.jar and 
apache-rat-tasks-0.7-SNAPSHOT.jar

Then, you can copy the build.xml file to a root directory containing the 
untarred files and run ant rat-sources

What happened to all the dependencies?  The Makefiles seem to indicate they

Hi Karl,

Can you go through and add ASF license headers to all text-based files that can 
be modified to accept comments?  I see a lot of python files, etc. that don't 
have headers.  This used to be not such a big deal and could have been resolved 
at commit time, but due to some other projects having copyright/license issues, 
we'd like to make sure they all are properly licensed in the donation.

Thanks,

The IP Clearance form says:

Check and make sure that the files that have been donated have been 
updated to reflect the new ASF copyright.

What exactly is the new ASF copyright?  Is it our standard license header?  
Is it really a requirement of a grant before it's even committed?  Can't this

 --- Current Wiki Text below ---
 = JPPF : a parallel processing framework for Java =
 === Abstract ===
 JPPF enables applications with large processing power requirements to be
 run on any number of computers, in order to dramatically reduce their
 processing time. This is done by splitting an application into smaller
 parts that can be executed simultaneously on different machines.
 
 === Proposal ===
 JPPF aims at facilitating the parallelization of computation-intensive
 applications, with a focus on ease of use, performance and reliability.
 
 To achieve these goals, the framework comes with a number of outstanding
 features:
 
 - Comprehensive, easy to use APIs: passing from a single-threaded
 application model to a grid-based parallel model can be a daunting task.
 JPPF facilitates this work by providing developers with a set of APIs
 that are simple, can be learned quickly and require a minimal or no
 modification to the existing code.
 
 - No configuration usage: in most environments, JPPF can be deployed
 without any additional configuration burden. Nodes and application
 clients will automatically dicover the servers on the network. The
 server will automatically adapt to workload changes and optimize the
 throughput. Required code and libraries will be automatically deployed
 where they are needed.
 
 - Dynamic grid scaling and self-repair: the JPPF grid is fault-tolerant,
 meaning that the failure of a node, or even a server, does not
 compromise the jobs currently executing or scheduled. In most cases, the
 performance degradation will be barely noticeable, as JPPF automatically
 adapts to topology and workload changes. Furthermore, nodes and servers
 can be dynamically started and will be automatically recognized,
 allowing JPPF to function in crunch mode. In addition to this, JPPF
 components benefit from automatic recovery functionalities.
 
 - Job-level SLA: each job submitted to the JPPF grid runs within limits
 defined by its own SLA (service level agreement). This allows to specify
 the characteristics (i.e. available memory, processors, disk space,
 operating systems, etc.) of the nodes a job can run on, as well as how
 many nodes it can run on. As many functionalities in JPPF, this one can
 be dynamically adjusted, manually or automatically.
 
 - Advanced Management and monitoring: full-fledged management and
 monitoring features are provided out of the box: server and nodes status
 monitoring, detailed statistics and events, remote administration,
 job-level real-time monitoring and management, charts, cpu utilization
 (for billing). These functionalities are available via a graphical user
 interface as well as from the JPPF APIs.
 
 - Integration with leading application and web servers: by complying
 with the Java Connector Architecture 1.5 specification, JPPF integrates
 seamlessly with and completes the offering of leading J2EE application
 servers: Apache Geronimo, JBoss, Glassfish, IBM Websphere, Oracle
 Weblogic, Oracle OC4J. JPPF also integrates with GigaSpaces eXtreme
 Application Platform and Apache Tomcat web server
 
 - Extensibility: JPPF offers a number of hooks and extension points that
 allow users to extend the framework and adapt it to their own
 requirements and needs. Such extension mechanisms are available for
 custom management and monitoring MBeans, startup classes for grod
 components, network data transformation/encryption, additional
 load-balancing algorithms, alternate object serialization mechanisms.
 
 === Background ===
 JPPF is a project being actively developed at SourceForge. It was
 created to address a class of problems called embarassingly parallel,
 which groups computational problems that can be decomposed into many
 smaller sub-problems, that are independant from each other and that can
 thus be executed in parallel.
 
 === Rationale ===
 Given these last years' emergence of technologies that make commodity
 hardware, virtualization and cloud computing available to a fast-growing
 computing ecosystem, the project answers the need to execute
 applications ever faster, with a low entry cost, while at the same time
 preserving historical technological investments.
 
 == Current Status ==
 === Meritocracy ===
 MWe acknowledge that a meritocratic governance is the only way for the
 project to grow and expand, in the spirit of open source and the ASF. It
 will benefit the project, its communities, the

Lucene Connector Framework

Abstract

Many, many search engines, as well as other applications, have a need to connect
with content repositories (SharePoint, CMS, Documentum, etc.) in a standard
manner. The Lucene Connector Framework (LCF) is a project aimed at building out
these connectors in open source under the Apache brand.

Proposal

The goal of LCF is to create a viable Lucene subproject aimed at delivering a
best of breed connector framework under the Apache Lucene name. As a framework,
the project will not only provide a way to connect to individual repositories,
but also a mechanism for plugging in new connectors or custom connectors in a
straightforward manner.

A connector framework is vital for search engines and other tools that need to
access data located in corporate repositories. By abstracting the problem into a
framework, applications can code to a set of well-defined interfaces instead of
having to use a different interface for each connector.

Connector Framework is an extendible incremental crawler, which uses a database
to manage configuration and crawl history, and provides reasonably high
performance in accessing content in multiple repositories for the main purpose
of search engine indexing. Connector Framework also establishes a
repository-specific security model which can be used to limit search user access
to repository content based on a user's identity. Connector Framework also
includes existing connectors and authorities for:

• File system • Windows shares • JDBC-supported databases • RSS feeds • General 
websites • LiveLink [from OpenText]

• Documentum [from EMC] • SharePoint [from Microsoft]

• Meridio [from Meridio] • Memex [from Memex] • FileNet [from IBM]

Key design points for Connector Framework are as follows:

• Extendability - you can add new connectors for new repositories, and new
authorities for specific repository security models • Incrementality - the 
ability to process only what changed between crawls, in
a repository-specific manner • Restartability - using a database with ACID 
properties to insure that crawls
are safe against process interruption or machine shutdown • Security - 
establishing a model of security tokens that allows a search
engine to enforce a repository's security model • Limited footprint - ability 
to operate reliably within a fixed amount of
process memory, regardless of configuration • Performance - management of 
connector-specific resources to maximize overall
thoughput • Transparency - ability to generate reports on the activity of all 
crawls and
repository connections

Background

MetaCarta originally approached Grant Ingersoll from the Lucene PMC about
donating their existing connector framework to the Lucene PMC. After some
discussion about accepting it as a software grant, the PMC decided it would be
best to incubate the project first.

Rationale

The Connector Framework fills an often significant gap in the Lucene experience,
namely, how to get content locked away in a content repository into
Lucene/Solr/Nutch/Mahout/Tika. Naturally, many other tools (search engines and
others) will also have this same problem. A Connector Framework would also be
useful for someone wishing to migrate between content repositories, too.

Current Status

Connector Framework has been under development and in use in the field for close
to five years, deployed on a MetaCarta search appliance. Almost all development
of the project has been done by Karl Wright ( kwri...@metacarta.com ). Some
individual connectors were developed initially by contractors hired by
MetaCarta, Inc., but maintenance and further development is currently handled by
the MetaCarta team.

Development of Connector Framework can therefore be viewed as core framework
development, plus development of individual connectors. Core framework
development is currently not a terribly collaborative process, as there are no
maintainers of the core functionality other than Mr. Wright. Development of new
connectors has been done in the past in a much more collaborative way by
supplying a developer with a development kit, and then integrating the
resulting connector (with whatever changes might have been necessary) into the
source tree.

Reasonable efforts have been made to maintain the generality of the code base
during the time that MetaCarta has owned it. Nevertheless, certain
MetaCarta-specific changes have been made which may require review

Lucene Connector Framework Proposal - Looking for one more mentor

2010-01-03 Thread Grant Ingersoll
Hi, 

The Lucene PMC is looking for one more mentor for a new project we hope to 
incubate based on some initial code from MetaCarta called the Lucene 
ConnectorFramework.  Most of the details are in 
http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/LuceneConnectorFrameworkProposal, but we're 
not quite done there yet to call a vote.  One of the things we are missing is 
one last mentor, so I thought I'd reach out to the community and see if anyone 
is willing to step up and help mentor.

Thanks,
Grant

However if I am doing groups on people I do not get the droids group
but I remembered that you said you have set it up.


I don't have that Karma.  That would have to be a JIRA infra request,  
I think.  I set up a Droids group in the SVN auth.  However, I don't  
think we need an explicit Droids UNIX group (just look at all the  
others there)


What we need is someone in the incubator group to add the directory.   
I _think_ all Incubator committers can be in that group, judging by  
the people who are already in that group.  Maybe that's just an INFRA

No ACK needed, as it was the Incubator PMC itself who just voted.


Regarding the svn move ATM there are two trees under development
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/labs/droids/trunk
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/labs/droids/branch/LABS-144/

Where the latest has become kind of trunk. We can merge them if this
will ease the work of migrating.


I don't think you need anything more complicated than an svn move of
labs/droids to incubator/droids. Whether or how you want to merge
branches is a project decision that's up to you and the other
committers.

Re: [Vote] accept Droids into incubation

2008-10-04 Thread Grant Ingersoll
 only one company is known to use Droids in a productive
environment however there is a constant interest in a generic robot
framework expressed by various Apache committers. For many potential
users the existing tools are to complicated or too much focused on a
specific usecase which will help to gain a bigger user base.

Once the project gets started we can quickly build the wget style  
droids

to a feature level of existing tools based on plugin development that
reuses code from sources mentioned below. After that we believe to be
able to quickly grow the developer and user communities based on the
benefits of a generic framework offering reusable plugins and  
different

droids over custom alternatives.

=== Inexperience with Open Source ===

All the initial developers have worked on open source before and many
are committers and PMC members within other Apache projects.

=== Homogenous Developers ===

The initial developers come from a variety of backgrounds and with a
variety of needs for the proposed toolkit.

=== Reliance on Salaried Developers ===

Some of the developers are paid to work develop certain  
functionality on

this, but the proposed project is not the primary task for anyone.

=== Relationships with Other Apache Products ===

TBN

=== A Excessive Fascination with the Apache Brand ===

All of us are familiar with Apache and we have participated in Apache
projects as contributors, committers, and PMC members. We feel that  
the

Apache Software Foundation is a natural home for a project like this.

== Documentation ==

The main documentation is distributed with the code

* [http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/labs/droids/trunk/docs/ Docu]
* [http://people.apache.org/~thorsten/droids/ DocuDeployed]

== Initial Source ==

Droids will start with the code base that have been developed in the
Apache Labs project:

* [http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/labs/droids/trunk/ code base]

== Source and Intellectual Property Submission Plan ==

All seed code and other contributions will be handled through the  
normal

Apache contribution process.

We will also contact other related efforts for possible cooperation

FYI, I have sent my request to join the PMC.  I will add my name to  
the Mentor list, which should give us three.

Correct. But IIRC, Grant is a ASF Member and can therefor just send a

Ah, cheers for the clarification. :)

2008-09-24 Thread Grant Ingersoll
Looks like we need one more mentor.  Is it redundant to put myself as  
one since I'm already the champion and a listed committer?

This is a proposal to enter the incubator.

See http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/DroidsProposal for the most

As Champion we have Grant Ingersoll gsingers at apache dot org from

Droids is an Apache Labs project and we are still looking for some
mentors for this proposal.

We look forward to comments and discussion.

= Droids, an intelligent standalone robot framework =

=== Abstract ===

Droids aims to be an intelligent standalone robot framework that  
allows

to create and extend existing droids (robots).

=== Proposal ===

As a standalone robot framework Droids will offer infrastructure  
code to
create and extend existing robots. In the future it will offer as  
well a

web based administration application to manage and controll the
different droids which will communicate with this app.

Droids makes it very easy to extend existing robots or write a new one
from scratch, which can automatically seek out relevant online
information based on the user's specifications. Since the flexible
design it can reuse directly all custom business logic that are  
written

in java.

In the long run it should become umbrella for specialized droids that
are hosted as sub-projects. Where an ultimate goal is to integrate an
artificial intelligence that can control a swarm of droids and  
actively

plan/react on different tasks.

=== Background ===

The initial idea for the Droids project was voiced in February 2007  
from
Thorsten Scherler mainly because of personal curiosity and developed  
as

a labs project. The background of his work was that Cocoon trunk (2.2)
did not provide a crawler anymore and Forrest was based on it, meaning
we could not update anymore till we found a crawler replacement.  
Getting

more involved in Solr and Nutch he saw the request for a generic
standalone crawler.

For the first version he took nutch, ripped out and modified the
plugin/extension framework. However the second version were not  
based on
it anymore but was using Spring instead. The main reason was that  
Spring

has become a standard and helped to make Droids as extensible as
possible.

Soon the first plugins and sample droids had been added to the code
based.

=== Rationale ===

There is ever more demand for tools that automatically do determinate
tasks. Search engines such as Nuts are normally very focused on a
specific functionality and are not focused on extensibility.  
Furthermore

there are manly focused on crawling, requesting certain pages and
extract links to other pages, which in our opinion is only one small
area for automated robots. While there are a number of existing  
crawler

libraries for various task, each of them comes with a custom API and
there are no generic interface for automatically determining which
crawler (droids) to use for a specific task.

The Droids project attempts to remove this duplication of efforts. We
believe that by pooling the efforts of multiple projects we will be  
able

to create a generic robot framework that exceeds the capabilities and
quality of the custom solutions of any single project. The focus of
Droids is not a single crawler but more to offer different reusable
components that custom droids (robots) can use to automate certain
tasks. An intelligent standalone robot framework project will not only
provide common ground for the developers of crawler but as well for  
any

other automated application (robots) libraries.

=== Initial Goals ===

The initial goals of the proposed project are:

* Viable community around the Droids codebase
* Active relationships and possible cooperation with related projects
and communities (e.g. reusing Tika for text extraction)
* Generic robot API for crawling, extracting structured text content
and/or new task, filtering task and handle the content
* Flexible extension and plugin development to create a wide range of
functionality
* Fuel develop of various droids and bring the current wget style
crawler to state-of-the-art level

== Current Status ==

=== Meritocracy ===

All the initial committers are familiar with the meritocracy  
principles

of Apache, and have already worked on the various source codebases. We
will follow the normal meritocracy rules also with other potential
contributors.

=== Community ===

There is not yet a clear Droids community. Instead we have a number of
people and related projects with an understanding that an intelligent
standalone robot framework project would best serve everyone's
interests. The primary goal of the incubating project is to build a
self-sustaining community around this shared vision.

=== Core Developers ===

The initial set of developers comes from various backgrounds, with
different but compatible needs for the proposed project.

=== Alignment ===

As a generic robot

2008-09-23 Thread Grant Ingersoll
So, I'm new to championing (but read the brief docs on the proposal  
guide).  One question I have is related to the Sponsoring PMC.  The  
proposal indicates two Sponsoring Entities.  When does that need to be  
resolved?  Or is this going to be a TLP?  Or, does it not matter?

The geo tools stuff is LGPL and the Geo API stuff appears to be a new license

limited to one or two files.

The jsr108 stuff seems like it could be removed, as it doesn't appear to be

IP Clearance form re INCUBATOR-77

2008-08-25 Thread Grant Ingersoll
I'm trying to resolve INCUBATOR-77 and I feel stuck on the wording in  
the clearance template:

Check and make sure that for all items included with the
  distribution that is not under the Apache license,  
we have

  the right to combine with Apache-licensed code and
  redistribute.
and
Check and make sure that all items depended upon by the
  project is covered by one or more of the following  
approved
  licenses: Apache, BSD, Artistic, MIT/X, MIT/W3C,  
MPL 1.1, or

  something with essentially the same terms.

Per the issue mentioned, there is an LGPL dependency right now that is  
going to be resolved.  Thus, I am not sure what to do.  Can we fill  
out this and proceed w/ the checking in the code, knowing that we  
can't release it until this is resolved or can I truly not finish  
filling out the IP clearance (https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/public/trunk/site-author/ip-clearance/local-lucene-solr.xml 
) until it is resolved?  Part of me thinks, that if we commit, but not  
release, that we will get some user volunteers to take up the issue of  
replacing the problematic code.  My understanding of the ASF (and  
based on Doug C.'s comment) is that we could commit as long as we  
don't release, but the clearance template seems to put up a gate that  
isn't necessarily there.


Please advise.

Thanks,
Grant

be careful and explicit.
niall: wants to see the q resolved. likes the name, sees no real  
objection.

niclas: conflict with debian; only worries about it.

of the rest, most like the name etch and seem to be just tossing  
the ball around.


the main other concern is that of confusion with Debian Etch vs.  
Apache Etch. There
was some discussion about whether etch could get to the top of the  
google list.


so, can we put the name question to bed? it was suggested that the  
podling could/should

decide the issue for itself, later. is there a problem with that?

are there any other concerns about the proposal which aren't  
addressed?

On Aug 8, 2008, at 4:28 AM, James Dixson (jadixson) wrote:


Simple put: a name change is work. Before I can accept the need to do
work, I want to clearly understand the benefits of doing it.

Etch, while new to open-source, does have some awareness in a  
technical
community ( http://developer.cisco.com/web/cuae ). We have been  
publicly
pitching and distributing etch in our community for several months  
now.
People have been using the technology and for our current community  
Etch
!= Debian. Granted, a couple of months is a short amount of time,  
but it
is something. Imposing a name change on our current community, with  
the

reasoning that the future community, would be unable to differentiate
between Apache Etch and the etch release Debian, would be  
disruptive.


I don't think the argument is necessarily that the future community  
can't distinguish between Apache Etch and Debian, I think the argument  
is that the future community won't be able to find it, period, which  
means the future community may well be smaller than it would be w/ a  
more distinctive name.


Put it this way, you search for Hadoop, the top 10 on Google is all  
Apache Hadoop.  You search for Etch and you will be lucky to crack the  
top 10, me thinks, but who knows maybe you'll get enough rank to  
displace the Etch-a-Sketch and it will be a non-issue.


Of course, the work thing I understand, too, although it seems like a  
global search and replace wouldn't be that bad.  You also certainly  
could change it over time, even after being accepted into incubation,  
I think, just as long as it's done before first release.


FWIW, I like the name Etch :-)

) have generously agreed to donate these projects to Lucene.  Details  
of the donation are at http://www.nsshutdown.com/projects/lucene/whitepaper/locallucene.htm


The Lucene PMC is working through the details of the software grant  
(paperwork for the most part.)


In the meantime, I would like to open the discussion of where this  
should live in Lucene.


The options are:

1. Split them up and make them each a part of Lucene and Solr and let  
the committers of those projects decide where things go
2. Create a separate Geo search subproject under Lucene TLP with it's  
own set of committers, etc. just like any of the other sub projects  
(Solr, Tika, Java, etc.)

3. Other?

Re: [VOTE] Accept Hama into the Incubator

2008-05-14 Thread Grant Ingersoll

+1

Dear Incubator PMC,

There has been some discussion around the Hama proposal,
and we would now like to officially propose Hama to the Incubator
for consideration, with Grant Ingersoll's +1.

Please vote on accepting the Hama project for incubation. The full
Hama proposal is available at the end of this message and as a wiki
page at http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/HamaProposal. We ask the
Incubator PMC to sponsor the Hama podling, with myself, Ian Holsman,
and Jeff Eastman as the mentors.

The vote is open for the next 72 hours and only votes from the
Incubator PMC are binding.

[ ] +1 Accept Hama as a new podling
[ ] -1 Do not accept the new podling (provide reason, please)


== Abstract ==

Hama will develop a parallel matrix computational package based on
[http://hadoop.apache.org Hadoop] Map/Reduce.

== Proposal ==

Hama will develop a parallel matrix computational package, which
provides an library of matrix operations for the large-scale
processing development environment and Map/Reduce framework for the
large-scale Numerical Analysis and Data Mining, which need the
intensive computation power of matrix inversion, e.g. linear
regression, PCA, SVM and etc. It will be also useful for many
scientific applications, e.g. physics computations, linear algebra,
computational fluid dynamics, statistics, graphic rendering and many
more.

== Background ==

Currently, several shared-memory based parallel matrix solutions can
provide a scalable and high performance matrix operations, but matrix
resources can not be scalable in the term of complexity. And, Hadoop
HDFS Files and Map/Reduce can only used by 1D blocked algorithm.

== Rationale ==

Hama approach proposes the use of 3-dimensional Row and Column
(Qualifier), Time space and multi-dimensional Columnfamilies of
[http://hadoop.apache.org/hbase Hbase], which is able to store large
sparse and various type of matrices (e.g. Triangular Matrix, 3D
Matrix, and etc.) and utilize the 2D blocked algorithm. its
auto-partitioned sparsity sub-structure will be efficiently managed
and serviced by Hbase. Row and Column operations can be done in
linear-time, where several algorithms, such as ''structured Gaussian
elimination'' or ''iterative methods'', run in O(the number of
non-zero elements in the matrix / number of mappers) time on Hadoop
Map/Reduce.

== Current Status ==

In its current state, the 'hama' is buggy and needs filling out, but
generalized matrix interface and basic linear algebra operations was
implemented within a large prototype system. In the future, We need
new parallel algorithms based on Map/Reduce for performance of heavy
decompositions and factorizations. It also needs tools to compose an
arbitrary matrix only with certain data filtered from hbase array
structure.

== Meritocracy ==

The initial developers are very familiar with meritocratic open source
development, both at Apache and elsewhere. Apache was chosen
specifically because the initial developers want to encourage this
style of development for the project.

=== Community ===

Hama seeks to develop developer and user communities during  
incubation.


== Core Developers ==

The initial set of committers includes folks from the
[http://hadoop.apache.org Hadoop]  [http://hadoop.apache.org/hbase
Hbase] communities. We have varying degrees of experience with
Apache-style open source development, ranging from none to ASF
Members.

== Alignment ==

The developers of Hama want to work with the Apache Software
Foundation specifically because Apache has proven to provide a strong
foundation and set of practices for developing standards-based
infrastructure and server components.

== Known Risks ==
=== Orphaned products ===

Most of the active developers would like to become Hama Committers or
PMC Members and have long term interest to develop/maintain and
'''use''' the code.

=== Inexperience with Open Source ===

We has already a good experience with Apache open source development  
process.


=== Homogenous Developers ===

The current list of committers includes developers from several
different companies ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NHN NHN, corp],
TMAX software, Korea Research Institute of Bioscience and
Biotechnology, Students) plus many independent volunteers. The
committers are geographically distributed across the Europe, and Asia.
They are experienced with working in a distributed environment.

=== Reliance on Salaried Developers ===

It is expected that Hama development will occur on both salaried time
and on volunteer time, after hours. While there is reliance on
salaried developers (currently from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NHN
NHN, corp], but it's expected that other company's salaried developers
will also be involved), the Hama Community is very active and things
should balance out fairly quickly. In the meantime,
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NHN NHN, corp] might support the project
in the future by dedicating

[DISCUSS: IP CLEARANCE] Mahout Taste Software Grant

2008-05-01 Thread Grant Ingersoll

Hi,

This is my first time doing an IP clearance, so I was wondering if one  
of the incubator veterans could double check the mahout-taste.xml  
grant located in https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/public/trunk/site-author/ip-clearance 
 before I call a vote on it.
