[REPORT] Please review

Hello,

Please review the Podling report for SDAP below:


SDAP

SDAP is an integrated data analytic framework for Big Science problems.

SDAP has been incubating since 2017-10-22.

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

 1. Make official SDAP (Incubating) Release
 2. Improve/create user guide documentation
 3. Improve committer participation

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?

We are continuing to attract new committers.

How has the project developed since the last report?

SDAP is still working towards its first release. Work towards a repeatable
build pipeline has been started.

New functionality has been added to the Distributed Oceanographic Matchup
Service (DOMS) and Extensible Data Gateway Environment (EDGE) components
that allow for filtering in situ measurements by a standardized quality
flag.

How would you assess the podling's maturity?

There are several deployments of SDAP actively being used and interest is
high. However, active participation from project members is low. A push is
needed to cross the t's and dot the i's in regards to meeting the
requirements Apache has for releasing software so that we can claim a 1.0
version of SDAP.

Please feel free to add your own commentary.

  [X] Initial setup
  [X] Working towards first release
  [X] Community building
  [ ] Nearing graduation

Date of last release:

  XXXX-XX-XX

When were the last committers or PPMC members elected?

Maya Debellis was elected as a committer on 2019-02-08

Have your mentors been helpful and responsive or are things falling
through the cracks? In the latter case, please list any open issues
that need to be addressed.

Yes, mentors have been helpful and responsive.

Sorry- Justin got back to me last night, I saw this morning- he said yes
that's the right thing to do and that he saw the entry.

Hi all,

I joined the sdap list a while back when you were looking for Mentors and help for the initial release.
Since then I became IPMC member so I could also offer you to support in the release (and, if still needed) as mentor as well.

I will also be at ACNA so would be nice to get in contact and chat there!

Re: [REPORT] Please review

Thanks Trevor.

Since there are no further comments and deadline for submission is today, I
am comfortable with submitting this report. Am I supposed to edit the wiki
directly?

wrt your questions:
I believe Brian Wilson is planning on attending ApacheCon and talking about
SDAP and is currently working on putting together materials.
I think we're ok with a 1.0 release because this version of the code is
running in a few different places. The main problem with the release at
this point is understanding and complying with all the legal requirements
Apache has to call it a release. Also the fact that we're not releasing all
components to Maven (because they aren't Java components) makes
understanding the Apache release requirements documentation challenging.
Most of our release artifacts are actually docker images but we were told
we cannot push unreleased docker images to dockerhub, and it's still
unclear what the process is then for releasing artifacts that are not JAR
files. This is the discussion that was kicked off due to that issue:
https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/9cdc55e46a6fe23e1c0fcbdee6032f4949572311b0ded10cf6353be0@%3Cgeneral.incubator.apache.org%3E
but I did not have time to follow it entirely. Re-reading it now it seems
that there is still a bit of an open question as to what we're actually
supposed to do.

This looks good- thanks Frank.

Improving/creating docs is always hard.  It might be advisable to find
someone who can work on this and give them committer rights (I'm seeing one
hasn't been added since Feb, not horrible, but we want to keep growing the
community).  Improved docs will lead to more user adoption, which will
create more committer incentives and a pool of people to draw from.  Sort
of a chicken and egg problem.

Has there been any advocacy for the project? (e.g. are there any talks
coming up at Apache Con to get people interested? If not maybe a lightning
talk? Also blog posts). Advocacy can kick start the previously mentioned
feedback loop.

I'm seeing that we're pushing for v1.0 - i know ASF wide that is the thing
everyone is pushing for, however it's probably OK to do a v0.x release
first just to get the ball moving (in fact probably should have a 0.x
release first to check for bugs before pushing 1.0, just my two cents).

This is looking good and I'm signing off, those are my comments.
