Draft incubator report for September

Hi, I’ve not posted the draft incubator report to this list the last couple of times I created it and that’s been amiss of me. There is still a large number of outstanding podling reports so please get those in. Here’s my current draft text of the front part of the report. Does anyone have

Hi, I’m considering asking the podling to report monthly until this issue is sorted. What do others think? Thanks, Justin - To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail:

Re: Guidance : Gitter --> Slack

I see the channel now. I could not find it earlier, hence my trying to create it. Yes, it seems like someone set this up. So, am I correct in assuming that anyone can register an account on this slack workspace using any email account (e.g. does not need to be Apache.org emails)? Is that correct?

Re: [DISCUSS] Absent mentors

I hear what you’re saying. As a metric it’s better than nothing, but let’s not assume it is telling us everything. I believe that asking all mentors to sign off is a change in policy or at least in practice. (Neither the “Mentors’ guide”[1] nor the “Guide to being a mentor”[2] talks about

Hi Greg, Interesting. I just tried that and was shown "airflow is already taken by a channel, user, or user group". However, apache-airflow is available. I noticed channels for general. I figured general would be limited to the ASF mailing lists. -s On Sat, Sep 1, 2018 at 2:23 PM Greg Stein

Re: [DISCUSS] Absent mentors

There is a strong presumption here that a mentor is fulfilling their duty if and only if they sign the reports. I’m skeptical. I can think of cases where an engaged mentor does not sign reports (because someone else has done it), and vice versa where a disengaged mentor shows up once a quarter

Re: Guidance : Gitter --> Slack

How would I establish airflow.slack.com? Would I just go ahead and create the workspace? Or is there a preference to have Apache Infra create and own it? -s On Fri, Aug 31, 2018 at 7:08 PM Greg Stein wrote: > Slack has no F/OSS discounts, but they *do* have a discount for charities > like the

Re: Missing multiple board reports in a row

Hi Justin, thanks for reminding. I actually was busy with other projects and forgot that I probably have registered myself for another one. Could you please remind me what was that about? Sorry for inconvenience. Cheers, Dmitry On 1/09/2018 11:19 AM, Justin Mclean wrote: Hi, It lookalike you
