UserALE.js has had Apache releases and is actively maintained and developed 
against. Should be a new minor release later this quarter

UserALE.pyqt5 will be retired

STOUT and TAP will also be retired

We’re pulling relevant functionality from those to sub-projects into Distill, 
which will be released after a significant refactor.

We have some disclaimers notices in our READMEs, but agree should also go in 
DISCLAIMER file until projects are shelved or re-released. Good action.

Will coordinate with docs/website update

Will also beat bushes to get committers subscribed to the right lists.

[VOTE] Graduate Apache TVM as TLP

2020-10-19 Thread Tianqi Chen
Dear Incubator:

A month ago we brought up the discussion about graduating TVM as TLP. After
great discussions in the apache way [2],
we get good support from the incubator and also get helpful feedback about
producing another release.
The TVM PPMC always focused on getting consensus, and is fully committed to
building a better community,
as a result, we decided to withdraw the graduation until there has been
another release.

Now that the community has produced another release by two new release
managers from different organizations
and a after new round of discussion[1], we propose to formally vote on
TVM's graduation.

Please also see the community discussion thread[3], voting thread[4].

This is a formal voting thread about Apache TVM's graduation, please Vote:
[ ] +1 - Recommend graduation of Apache TVM as a TLP
[ ]  0 - I don't feel strongly about it, but don't object
[ ] -1 - Do not recommend graduation of Apache TVM because...

The VOTE will open for at least 72 hours.

Summary of community status:

Compliance

Compliance is what every project is required to do. These policies are set
to protect Apache’s brand,
encourage community over code and set a common foundation for the projects.
Usually compliance is well documented (as per-apache way, what is not
documented did not happen).
The TVM PPMC has been diligently upholding compliances, including, but not
limited to

- T0 Project website hosted at ASF https://tvm.apache.org/.
- T1 Produce apache release, no cat-X code.
- T2 No advertising non-release items as Apache release.
- T3 Protect Apache brand, working with trademark to resolve branding
concerns.
- T4 Clearly marks third party artifacts and makes sure they comply with
trademark policies.
- T5 Open development: everyone happens (also) happens on dev@
- T6 Consider all forms of contributions for committer nomination.
- T7 Make sure release processes are clearly documented, reproducible by
any committers.

Community

The “community over code” is one of the most important factors of
the Apache way.
The TVM PPMC has been working very hard to foster a healthy, diverse and
independent community,
and will continue to do so.

- C0: Consider all forms of contributions as merit.
- C1: Encourage community diversity by only nominating people from
different organizations.
- C2: Actively discusses, and brings in new committers from diverse
backgrounds.
The community grows healthily and is quite vibrant.

Postdoc (and student) positions in a study of the Incubator, and open source software success generally

2020-10-19 Thread Seth Frey
Hello Incubator and Foundation people,

I reached out last year while planning an academic study of the Incubator.  Our 
proposal got funded and we now have NSF support to do just that.  Most of you 
are in industry, but if you happen to know anyone looking for a postdoc (or a 
student position) who would enjoy studying you and your community, feel free to 
pass this along:
"""
Postdoc (and student) positions in the study of open source software success

We are hiring for a project at University of California Davis on OSS structure, 
governance, and success. These are NSF-funded positions of 2–5 years under an 
interdisciplinary team spanning computer science,  computational social 
science, and policy analysis. The postdoc position is seeking applications into 
November. The student positions may be filled this or next year.
