Proposed Podling Report
Hi All,
The following is the proposed podling report for the months of November,
December, and January. As this needs to be submitted by EOD today, please
respond with comments asap.
Apache Edgent is a programming model and micro-kernel style runtime that
can be embedded in gateways and small footprint edge devices enabling
local, real-time, analytics on the continuous streams of data coming from
equipment, vehicles, systems, appliances, devices and sensors of all kinds
(for example, Raspberry Pis or smart phones). Working in conjunction with
centralized analytic systems, Apache Edgent provides efficient and timely
analytics across the whole IoT ecosystem: from the center to the edge.
Edgent has been incubating since 2016-02-29.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Create and expand a diverse community of contributors and committers
around the Edgent project
2. Checking of all items in the project's Maturity Model (
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/EDGENT/Apache+Maturity+Model+For+Edgent
)
3. Create a second release of Apache Edgent with additional features and
fixes.
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
No
How has the community developed since the last report?
* A well attended meetup in San Francisco, CA about Apache Edgent was
held on January 18th. It covered introductory concepts of datastreaming,
the positioning of Edgent in the datastreaming universe, and examples and
use cases of Edgent. The meetup was attended by roughly 40 developers.
"Apache Edgent: Datastreaming and Analytics for IoT Devices "
https://www.meetup.com/SF-Data-Science/events/236682354/
* There has been at least one question both asked and answered on
Stackoverflow by a non-committer non-PPMC member of the community. (
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/41280097/joining-streams-of-different-types-in-apache-edgent
)
* Since the last report, at least 5 individuals have subscribed to the
Apache Edgent dev mailing list.
How has the project developed since the last report?
* The first release of Edgent as part of the Apache incubator was
created on 2016-12-15. This represents a large amount of work, including
numerous improvements to connectors, the console, and a complete overhaul
of the build system to use Gradle.
*According to JIRA, the project has added the following:
* November 2016: 6 new issues; 18 issues resolved.
* December: 18 new issues; 29 issues resolved.
* January: 15 new issues; 12 issues resolved
Date of last release:
* The most recent release of Apache Edgent was 2016-12-15.
When were the last committers or PMC members elected?
* In May 2016, we added two new committers and PPMC members, Kathy
Saunders and Queenie Ma.

A couple of days ago I was thinking of doing another release.
It would be more interesting if the release incorporated at least one moderate enhancement (e.g., EDGENT-377). Right now, not much of significance has been added, though there have been some changes and going through the process again would be valuable on its own.
I’ll kick off a thread for that.

Hi,
> I think the biggest barrier is building a diverse community.
Even though they work for one company they are a very diverse bunch - and I mean that in a nice way :-)
Now they have a release out they may attract more interests. It might be a good idea to do another release under incubation as well, but I think they could do so without any guidance, so certainly not a blocker.
Thanks,
Justin

I think the biggest barrier is building a diverse community. I think
all the committers and PPMC members understand and embrace their Apache
Hat very well, but all but one work for the same company. The community
is very welcoming has put effort int webcasts and meetups to try to
attract more people and I am sure that would continue to do that after
graduation, but I seem to recall that there was a magic number of at
least three entities represented before graduation, but must say I can't
find reference right now.

I encourage our committers and the larger community to express their opinion on this and also comment what you think you might still need from the mentors.

All,
I want to echo the sentiments I see in your mentors' comments. Great work. I'm wondering, is Edgent almost ready to graduate?
