Re: Podling Report Reminder - September 2018
Anyone from the PPMC can write the report.
(If you don't have wiki edit access,, just send it here and it'll be
transferred)

Re: Podling Report Reminder - September 2018

Thanks Andy for pinging.
I'm just back from annual leave. It's not a good sign that no-one else from
the Taverna PPMC stepped up, that is pretty much what is our challenge for
graduating now.
Here's draft report. Comments here.
--------------------
Taverna
Taverna is a domain-independent suite of tools used to design and execute
data-driven workflows.
Taverna has been incubating since 2014-10-20.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Re-engage PPMC members
2. Graduate?
3.
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
INFRA-16698 is pending comments from Daniel Gruno / IPMC on how
to manage incubator repositories on git-wip-us.apache.org that have
been retired (in our case transferred to another GitHub organizations).
The suggestion is to do a "git rm" and leave a README on the head commit
pointing to the new location.

How has the community developed since the last report?
2 Google Summer of Code students have been active over the summer with
strong guidance from mentors and getting pull requests merged.
However the rest of the community has been very quiet and not
commented much on the GSOC progress or pull requests.
How has the project developed since the last report?
Good progress from GSOC students, which code bases are now
due a new release to include their changes.
Two legacy git repositories were retired to not go through
graduation (INFRA-16698).
There is not much outstanding towards graduation, except
re-engaging the PMC members.
We will have to admit we are a slow project, which is
OK (many Apache projects are), yet still there seems
to be some kind of incubator fatigue - for
instance no-one else picked up the job of doing this
report although prompted to do so by a mentor.
How would you assess the podling's maturity?
Please feel free to add your own commentary.
