[DISCUSSION] Apache SystemML podling graduation

Apache SystemML has been under incubation since November 2015 and so far
the project has accomplished 5 official Apache Releases, voted 4 new
committers/PPMC members and has welcomed a new mentor. The community also
continues to evangelize the project at universities, blog posts, public
webcasts as well as in multiple conferences.

It's time to discuss the graduation of SystemML

The SystemML PPMC graduation discussion can be found here:
https://www.mail-archive.com/dev@systemml.incubator.apache.org/msg01457.html

If SyatemML were to graduate, the proposed board resolution is being
discussed/drafted at:
https://www.mail-archive.com/dev@systemml.incubator.apache.org/msg01728.html

The optional maturity model is available at:
http://systemml.apache.org/maturit <http://systemml.apache.org/maturity>


Any thoughts, comments, questions?

Thanks !

John and Luciano,

I have also updated master to remove the screen captures with a comment to
clear future screen capture usage in ASF releases with ASF legal.

I am.  However, I'll point out that the last podling in this situation,
Kylin, did re-roll a release to fix the remaining issues, and was able to
get me to vote a +1 on their graduation.  I do not plan to vote a -1 on

I believe the reasons the last two releases passed cleanly has more to do
with who reviewed those releases and what they were looking for rather than
something new.  The LICENSE issues I noted have existed for 6 months, those
two releases are less than 6 months old.  Simply not enough time on my side
to review all releases.

Each of SystemML's releases have gotten better, it just concerns me that in
their last release they agreed to fix things in the next release - which is
conceivably outside the incubator.

Does this mean you are opposed to SystemML graduating at this point?

Luciano's reference to releases 0.12 and 0.13 passing without
problems, as well as (at least) 3 ASF members on the proposed PMC make
me confident about graduating.

Measuring a community isn't the only part of graduation.  Verifying that
they know how to create a release is part of that process.  While there is
no perfect release, we do expect all licensing issues to be cleared up by
the time they graduate, and the current release indicates they are not.
The fact that they want to have a follow up release to fix them indicates
that they think they're still incubating.

+1 to that

The community has proven the ability to run the project in the Apache way
and has been very open and responsive to resolve issues raised from IPMC.

+1. Sounds like it's passed time to discuss graduation.

There's no such thing as a perfect release, and the measure of a community
is not its ability to make a perfect release, but its ability to deal with,
and learn from, a release issue.

Re: [DISCUSSION] Apache SystemML podling graduation

Posted by Luciano Resende <lu...@gmail.com>.
John,

Although the latest release had one small license issue due to recent
changes, I don't consider that a blocking for graduation, particularly when
we look at the past couple releases that passed without any issues trough
IPMC.

SystemML 0.12 release candidate vote at General
https://www.mail-archive.com/general@incubator.apache.org/msg58449.html

SystemML 0.13 release candidate vote at General
https://www.mail-archive.com/general@incubator.apache.org/msg58803.html

Also, we have been doing some rotation on the RM for SystemML to make sure
others on the PPMC are comfortable building releases.

Luciano,

I suspect from a community standpoint SystemML is ready to go.

I'm concerned about their ability to create ASF compliant releases.  Their
current release under vote is problematic, specifically the contents of the
LICENSE file.  I would like to see the podling leave the incubator with a
perfect release.
