Re: [VOTE] Accept Taverna into the Apache Incubator
Apart from the typo, I thought it was necessary for the VOTE thread to contain the full text of the proposal. This has been the case for (almost) all previous acceptance votes. I assume the text is required so the mail archives have a full record of what was actually voted on. The Wiki page might subsequently change or be deleted.

This has been the case for (almost) all previous acceptance votes. The Lens one I copied from didn't :-) Version static link: https://wiki.apache.org/incubator/TavernaProposal?rev=10 and copied below. Andy I assume the text is required so the mail archives have a full record of what was actually voted on. The Wiki page might subsequently change or be deleted. Abstract Taverna is an open source and domain-independent suite of tools used to design and execute data-driven workflows. Proposal The Taverna suite includes: * Taverna Workbench, a desktop application written in Java for graphically composing, editing and executing workflows composed of distributed Web services and local tools * Taverna Command Line Tool, which allows execution of workflows from a command line * Taverna Server, which provides a REST and SOAP API for executing workflows * Taverna Player, a Web interface the Taverna Server written in Ruby towards, providing a high-level view of workflow executions and their results and allowing further integrations with other Ruby on Rails applications Taverna allows browsing through and combining different service types in workflows, allowing them to integrate steps of arbitrary REST and SOAP Web services with command line tools (local and via SSH), scripts (Beanshell, R, Jython), and finally to visualize the results. The goal of the Taverna suite is to help researchers to access distributed datasets and processing capabilities by the construction of (data) pipelines, and also to simplify the execution of these pipelines in various environments. The Taverna suite of products is already successful and in wide use across different domains. The software is currently licensed as LGPL 2.1, with copyright owned by the University of Manchester. External contributors have all signed Apache-like CLAs. Background Taverna workflows coordinate inputs and outputs between computational processes and Web services. The workflow is designed in a graphical interface which shows the workflow as a series of boxes connected with arrows representing processes (i.e. executable services) and their data connections. Different processes in a workflow can be command line tools, REST and WSDL Web services; which are used for combining steps such as data acquisition, filtering, cleaning, integrating, analysis and visualization. Taverna calls these processes services, as they generally are provided by remote (third-party) servers.These kind of computational workflows, also known as pipelines or dataflows, focus on the movement of data rather than the execution order of the underlying processes. Features such as implicit iterations (where an input list of values causes multiple process executions) and parallel invocations (independent processes are executed as soon as their data is available) are intrinsic to a dataflow system, not requiring any particular constructs by the workflow designer.As a visual programming environment, workflows aids collaboration and reuse of workflows. At the highest level, a workflow represents the conceptual level of an analysis, allowing understanding, discussion and communication of the overall analysis protocol. More detail can be revealed and modified for individual steps. At the individual process level, the workflow defines execution specifics such as operations, parameters and command line tools.Sharing of the workflow definitions allows re-use and re-purposing of the computational analysis. During workflow execution, provenance can be collected from every step, allowing deep inspection of intermediate values for the purpose of debugging and validation. Rationale There is a strong need to lower the barrier of entry to datasets and computational resources widely available on the Internet, to increase their use by researchers who understand the computational steps needed to produce their results, but who are not necessarily expert programmers. Taverna has already shown its success and popularity in a wide range of scientific disciplines. Initial Goals Transition mailing lists to Apache (keep existing subscribers, but invite more) Taverna developer workshop (2014-10-30) Fully investigate/resolve incompatibly licensed dependencies Stage git repositories for move at https://github.com/taverna-incubator : Update headers/metadata to indicate Apache License 2.0 Restructure git repositories (to ~ 10 repos?)
