Incubator PMC/Board report for Apr 2012 ([ppmc])


Dear podling,

This email was sent by an automated system on behalf of the Apache Incubator PMC.
It is an initial reminder to give you plenty of time to prepare your quarterly
board report.

The board meeting is scheduled for Wed, 18 April 2012, 10:00:00 PST. The report 
for your podling will form a part of the Incubator PMC report. The Incubator PMC 
requires your report to be submitted 2 weeks before the board meeting, to allow 
sufficient time for review and submission (Wed, Apr 4th).

Please submit your report with sufficient time to allow the incubator PMC, and 
subsequently board members to review and digest. Again, the very latest you 
should submit your report is 2 weeks prior to the board meeting.

Thanks,

The Apache Incubator PMC

Submitting your Report
----------------------

Your report should contain the following:

 * Your project name
 * A brief description of your project, which assumes no knowledge of the project
   or necessarily of its field
 * A list of the three most important issues to address in the move towards 
   graduation.
 * Any issues that the Incubator PMC or ASF Board might wish/need to be aware of
 * How has the community developed since the last report
 * How has the project developed since the last report.
 
This should be appended to the Incubator Wiki page at:

  http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/April2012

Note: This manually populated. You may need to wait a little before this page is
      created from a template.

Mentors
-------
Mentors should review reports for their project(s) and sign them off on the 
Incubator wiki page. Signing off reports shows that you are following the 
project - projects that are not signed may raise alarms for the Incubator PMC.

Hi Raffaele,
Sure, infra has no 'standard' way to support this but they have EC2
credits that they can let us use.  They just wanted to know sizing
(memory, disk, cpu) and time up front so they can manage costs across
the foundation.  I dropped the conversation before because it didn't
seem like we had the bandwidth here to pursue it but I or you can
restart it if you like?

Personally, I'd encourage you guys to use any spare cycles to roll a
release - alpha, buggy, no matter, just get a release out:)

Hi guys, I was wondering whether any idea came up regarding performance
testing and benchmarking. Can we ask the infrastructures team for some
spare time of a machine with +8gb ram? Is there any other way?

    Raffaele

Here is the report (ready to be signed off at
http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/April2012). The only issue that comes up
to my mind (I didn't mention it, though, not sure it's the right place) is
the still missing roadmap to a first apache release and to a process
measuring performance under load. Let me know what you think about it.
