Re: Speaking of podling reports

Posted by Matthew Hayes <ma...@gmail.com>.
I'd like to share some updates.  I've remove the section about removing
committers from the "Becoming a Committer" page below.

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/DATAFU/Becoming+a+Committer

I've asked committers if they would like to join the PMC.  I've updated the
"Graduation Resolution" below with those folks that accepted.  The
remaining people declined to remain committers.

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/DATAFU/Graduation+Resolution

I've kicked off the release process for 1.3.3, which includes the sha512
fix.  This release will address one of the graduation comments about the
SHA-512 file extension being wrong.  I'm working on the remaining issues
raised that have been filed in
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DATAFU-131

Re: Speaking of podling reports

Posted by Matthew Hayes <ma...@gmail.com>.
Thanks Roman.  I fixed the conflicts in the report.  Please take a look.

Regarding your comments,

1) Having committers stay indefinitely makes sense to me.  I'll update the
wiki page.
2) Having PMC == committers also makes sense to me.  I'll email all the
current committers if they are willing to join the PMC.
3) I'll kick off a release vote soon with the sha512 fix.

There seems to be some merging artifacts on the report. Can you please

In most projects -- yes. So how about we just do it the default way and
call it a day? Any strong objections?

John is NOT correct. There's nothing in the policy that states that. 4
PMC is fine,
but see bellow...

...for all of my podlings I have advocated PMC == committers at the graduation
point. I think it sets up a very healthy culture for the project.

Is this something you guys are willing to consider?

Now, of course, you will still have to *ask* existing committers if they would
like to join a PMC (given an additional set of responsibilities) but typically
most people say yes.

Great. So lets see if we can do this final push for graduation in the coming
month or so.

Thanks,
Roman.

Hi Roman,

I started a discussion
<https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-general/201710.mbox/browser>
on
graduation in October.  Some feedback was

1) concern over number of committers vs. number of PMC members (here
<https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-general/201710.mbox/%3Cop.y7jw80af4ntv07%40desktop-v42f38k%3E>
 and here
<https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-general/201710.mbox/%3CCAOqetn_tXYM0MgZ_QUJg9xDiWUr2_VG5Msde96fmvBuBQriK-w%40mail.gmail.com%3E>
)
2) process for how committers are removed (here
<https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-general/201710.mbox/%3CCAFAMeYLxX5VD-t7Z4MQkKQ6y_M8BEdU975tjsUbAY7B5qVu3Zw%40mail.gmail.com%3E>
)
3) various website issues and an issue regarding sha512 checksum extension (
here
<https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-general/201710.mbox/%3CCAOGo0VZN4mLw-eS-Oz8W1hVhS70Y_BwwikJjRi9Sx3n0s8sFMg%40mail.gmail.com%3E>
)

I don't know if any action is required for #2; this was based on Fineract's
process, which seemed reasonable to us.  Do committers usually remain
indefinitely?  I don't have a strong opinion either way.

For #1, I thought from previous discussions that having 4 PMC members was
sufficient.   John said 5 members was the bare minimum.  I'm sure if we
asked more committers would be willing to join the PMC.  Mike suggested
asking who would like to remain a committer going forward after
graduation.  Generally, immediately after graduation should the committer
list equal the PMC list?  i.e. should we ask who would like to remain as
both a committer and and PMC member?

For #3, most of the issues raised with the website have been fixed.  Most
of the Whimsy checks for DataFu
<https://whimsy.apache.org/pods/project/datafu> are now green, aside from
Events and Image, which don't seem to pass for anyone, and License, which
seems like an invalid check to me.  I'm working on addressing the remaining
issues for #3.  The sha512 issue requires a new release, which we should do
anyways.
