[ANNOUNCE] Apache OpenWhisk Wskdeploy (incubating) 0.9.8 released

[Vincent S Hou]

Hi everyone,

We are pleased to announce that Apache OpenWhisk Wskdeploy (incubating) 0.9.8 
are released.

Apache OpenWhisk Wskdeploy is a utility to help you describe and deploy any 
part of the OpenWhisk programming model using a Manifest file written in YAML.

The download links of the current release is available at:
https://openwhisk.apache.org/downloads.html

Vincent Hou
On behalf of the OpenWhisk team

=
*DISCLAIMER*
Apache OpenWhisk Wskdeploy(incubating) is an effort undergoing incubation at The
Apache Software
Foundation (ASF), sponsored by Incubator.
Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further
review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision
making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful
ASF projects.
While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness
or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be
fully endorsed by the ASF.

Re: [DISCUSS] - Graduation of Apache Joshua

[Pierre Smits]

Of course the PPMC decides what they want to bring forward to the IPMC to
vote on, after the conclusion of this thread.

IMO: If you all agree, you can just eliminate it from the content of the
upcoming '[VOTE] - Graduation of Apache Joshua' thread.

Re: [DISCUSS] - Graduation of Apache Joshua

Good point Pierre, thanks. It's probably a remnant from an older template.
How should we fix that ? Is there a completely new template and/or should
we just remove that ?

RESOLVED, that the initial Apache Joshua PMC be and hereby is

tasked with the creation of a set of bylaws intended to

encourage open development and increased participation in the

Apache Joshua Project; and be it further

intentional or just a copy-paste remnant from another graduation

[DISCUSS] - Graduation of Apache Joshua

[Tommaso Teofili]

Dear all,

at Apache Joshua podling we discussed and voted a while back for the
graduation of the project to TLP [1]. It then took a while to take it up to
the next step of coming up with a draft resolution [2] and bring it to this
list.
So please help us drive Apache Joshua to TLP.

Regards,
Tommaso

Re: We want to contribute brpc to ASF, looking for champion and mentor ,please help

[Tan,Zhongyi]

Hi， JB，
Below are our answers to your questions，
Please check，
Thanks.

1. brpc doesn't depend on any other Apache projects. brpc currently
depends on the following external project:
   - leveldb
   - openssl
   - protobuf
   - gperftools (optional)
   - glog (optional)
   - gtest

2. brpc is alternative for C++ rpc fcramework，implementations for other
languages are not competitive enough (comparing to gRPC) to be
opensourced.  Besides the basic RPC function, brpc(C++) provides
additional features than gRPC:
   - Clients and servers can talk in multiple protocols: baidu internal
protocol, http, thrift, http2(communicable with gRPC, the PR is under
reviewing) and tens of other protocols.
   - Proved better performance in different scenarios, by eliminating
locks on hotpaths and using goroutine-like concurrency(bthread) with cache
friendly data structures
   - More useful debugging utilities to help C++ programers build solid
online services.
   - Various access patterns such as one-to-one, one-to-many(fan out),
streaming, which simplify implementation of complex distributed services.
