Re: September report
Here is a draft of a report. Hopefully I did this correctly. Please let me know what I need to correct and/or add. StreamsApache Streams is a lightweight processing engine for Activity Streams objects that can be export to multiple runtimes/frameworks.Streams has been incubating since 2012-11-20.Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation: 1. Growing the active developer community 2. Creating documentation for new users and new contributors 3. Increasing overall code quality in the projectAny issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to beaware of?N/AHow has the community developed since the last report? Merged 15 pull requests in the month of August from 4 different contributors. How has the project developed since the last report? Added new data providers (Facebook Instagram) Bug fixes in the elasticsearch writer Discussions on going about documentation and testing standards on the community list server.

Hi Roman, I'm sorry about the missing Streams report. The problem here is that the current committers, while pretty much active on Streams itself, still have trouble getting it into their skull and planning to draft up a report themselves, so that we (mentors) can sign it off... Previous reports so far had to be drafted up by the mentors to get it done in time, despite repeated nudges. The last time we warned the committers we would do this no more: part of learning the ropes and working towards graduation is that they also learn to take up this responsibility themselves. Regrettably, they again failed to pick this up and clearly I'm annoyed and disappointed :( Hopefully though this blunder and the fact they should 'fix' this already for the report next month will finally make them realize this is not something they can keep overlooking. To be clear, IMO the Streams committers are actually making good progress with the project itself, so from that perspective I do not think the IPMC has much to be worried about. They just need some spanking to get their act together with respect for the Foundation :) So hopefully this direct feedback will be enough 'spanking' ;) and we'll see a proper report delivered and signed off the next month. Kind regards, Ate Thanks, Roman. P.S. The biggest help with the summary is tracking releases -- so if somebody can help with at least that -- it'll be perfect! - To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
Re: September report
This is easier if you start from the template report that is on the wiki page. http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/September2014 Note that the deadline has passed already, so you will likely be asked to file your report next month. Some things that I don't see in this report are: - the amount of traffic on your mailing lists for the last few months - the number of commits on your project(s) for the last few months - when your last new committer was added, same for PMC - why your group has problems doing a simple and rare report on time - what challenges your project is working on - what is left to do before graduation On Mon, Sep 8, 2014 at 9:48 PM, Ryan Ebanks ryaneba...@gmail.com wrote: Here is a draft of a report.
