[DISCUSS] 2019 Q2 (APR) Apache SensSoft Podling Report Draft

Hi Folks, 

Posting this to dev for discussion. Please review and post comments, concerns, mods to this thread no later than Friday, March 29th. Following that, I will post the final version on dev.

Mentors: this report needs to be signed and uploaded to the Incubator Wiki no later than Wednesday, April 3rd. 

Thank you. Report draft follows:



Apache SensSoft

Apache SensSoft is a generalized user behavioral logging platform for web pages and thin-client applications

Apache SensSoft has been incubating since 2016-07-13.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

  1. Grow the Apache SensSoft (Incubating) Committer/Community Base.
  2. Complete our Podling name change
  3. Complete the issues highlighted at the SensSoft Roadmap [1]

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware
of?

We have completed our PODLINGNAMESEARCH workflow and our new name Apache Flagon has been approved by VP of marketing [2]. 

We have posted tickets to change the name of our core assets (JIRA, Website, GitBox Repos) [3], to coincide with changing website text, other content-based references to Apache SensSoft.

We are preparing for additional releases, immediately following our full transition to the Apache Flagon Namesake (UserALE.js v. 2.0.0, 2.1.0; poss. Flagon 1.0.0). 

How has the community developed since the last report?

The community has been:

-discussing reaching out to other open source projects to identify other potential communities (analytical technologies) to drive developments, as well as increase interest in the Podling.

-discussing research applications with university research labs in machine learning and social computing.

-discussing adoption of the technology with interested entities and identifying/eliminating barriers to adoption. 

-updating documentation on wiki and READMEs to improve community growth

How has the project developed since the last report?

Project maturity roadmaps (Wiki) and version release plans (JIRA) continue to be maintained.
JIRA boards continue to be maintained

Core products have been maintained for modernization and for security posture.

New features have been added to enhance adoption and make Apache SensSoft competitive with open-source business analytics services (e.g., OWA).

How would you assess the podling's maturity?
Please feel free to add your own commentary.

Despite challenges posed by dispersion of the original committers, the project is finding its footing again and continues to be desirable for consumption and relevant amidst alternatives. The impending name change is an opportunity for rebranding and acceleration of community growth.

Thanks Dave. Thanks for posting our report.

Let’s get our heads together soon on a community growth strategy. For the next week or so, I’m slogging through docs and code to flip Flagon.

HI Joshua,

Apologies for the delay - it's been a busy travel period for me.

The report looks good from my perspective.  With your good work keeping the
project up to date and the new name search completed, it feels like the
project can start to kick on from here.

I've posted the report to the Wiki and added my sign off.

Cheers,
Dave
