Re: Question: Defining an official birthday for an Apache Airflow community meetup
We never had any "official birthday" - but the first commit date is a good candidate. But I think graduation to TLP in Apache is also a good one (8 Jan 2019) https://news.apache.org/foundation/entry/the-apache-software-foundation-announces44 However, 4 days to prepare for an event might be a bit **short** time ;) J.

Re: Question: Defining an official birthday for an Apache Airflow community meetup
Thank you so much for sharing this! Personally, I was thinking that October 7, the date of the very first commit, could be a nice candidate for an “Airflow birthday.” (back then it was called Flux, not Airflow 😀) 2025년 12월 31일 (수) PM 2:40, Amogh Desai 님이 작성: > Hello Yeonguk, > > I do not know an official birthday / a recognised day/date, but I am > tempted to mention > that we celebrated 10 years of Airflow in Airflow Summit 2024 in San > Francisco. > > Keynote: > > https://airflowsummit.org/sessions/2024/10-years-of-airflow-history-insights-and-looking-forward/ > > Thanks & Regards, > Amogh Desai > > > On Wed, Dec 31, 2025 at 10:06 AM Yeonguk Choo > wrote: > > > Hi everyone, > > > > I’m planning to host an *Apache Airflow birthday community event in Korea > > next year*, and I’d love to align it with a date that feels meaningful > and > > acceptable to the broader community. > > > > Since Airflow has several important milestones (such as the initial > commit, > > entering the Apache Incubator, and graduating as an Apache Top-Level > > Project), I wanted to ask the community: > > > > *Is there a date that is generally considered the “birthday” of Apache > > Airflow?* > > If not, *which milestone do you think would be the most appropriate to > > celebrate for a community event?* > > > > Any thoughts, historical context, or precedents from past celebrations > > would be greatly appreciated. > > > > Thanks in advance, and I hope to celebrate Airflow together with you all > > next year! 🎉 > > > > Best regards, > > Yeonguk > > -- > > 추영욱 Yeonguk Choo > > > > Mobile +82-10-8815-8118 > > Email [email protected] > > FB23 00B5 EAA3 EBF0 FDD6 C2B9 BE7A 512C BC72 067A > > >
Re: Question: Defining an official birthday for an Apache Airflow community meetup
Hello Yeonguk, I do not know an official birthday / a recognised day/date, but I am tempted to mention that we celebrated 10 years of Airflow in Airflow Summit 2024 in San Francisco. Keynote: https://airflowsummit.org/sessions/2024/10-years-of-airflow-history-insights-and-looking-forward/ Thanks & Regards, Amogh Desai On Wed, Dec 31, 2025 at 10:06 AM Yeonguk Choo wrote: > Hi everyone, > > I’m planning to host an *Apache Airflow birthday community event in Korea > next year*, and I’d love to align it with a date that feels meaningful and > acceptable to the broader community. > > Since Airflow has several important milestones (such as the initial commit, > entering the Apache Incubator, and graduating as an Apache Top-Level > Project), I wanted to ask the community: > > *Is there a date that is generally considered the “birthday” of Apache > Airflow?* > If not, *which milestone do you think would be the most appropriate to > celebrate for a community event?* > > Any thoughts, historical context, or precedents from past celebrations > would be greatly appreciated. > > Thanks in advance, and I hope to celebrate Airflow together with you all > next year! 🎉 > > Best regards, > Yeonguk > -- > 추영욱 Yeonguk Choo > > Mobile +82-10-8815-8118 > Email [email protected] > FB23 00B5 EAA3 EBF0 FDD6 C2B9 BE7A 512C BC72 067A >
Question: Defining an official birthday for an Apache Airflow community meetup
Hi everyone, I’m planning to host an *Apache Airflow birthday community event in Korea next year*, and I’d love to align it with a date that feels meaningful and acceptable to the broader community. Since Airflow has several important milestones (such as the initial commit, entering the Apache Incubator, and graduating as an Apache Top-Level Project), I wanted to ask the community: *Is there a date that is generally considered the “birthday” of Apache Airflow?* If not, *which milestone do you think would be the most appropriate to celebrate for a community event?* Any thoughts, historical context, or precedents from past celebrations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, and I hope to celebrate Airflow together with you all next year! 🎉 Best regards, Yeonguk -- 추영욱 Yeonguk Choo Mobile +82-10-8815-8118 Email [email protected] FB23 00B5 EAA3 EBF0 FDD6 C2B9 BE7A 512C BC72 067A
