SystemML status update for August 2016

  
  SystemML provides declarative large-scale machine learning (ML) that aims at
  flexible specification of ML algorithms and automatic generation of hybrid
- runtime plans ranging from single node, in-memory computations, to distributed
+ runtime plans ranging from single node, in-memory computations, to
- computations such as Apache Hadoop MapReduce and Apache Spark.
+ distributed computations running on Apache Hadoop MapReduce and Apache
+ Spark.
  
  SystemML has been incubating since 2015-11-02.
  
  Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
  
-   1.
-   2.
-   3.
+   - Grow SystemML community: increase mailing list activity,
+     increase adoption of SystemML for scalable machine learning, encourage
+     data scientists to adopt DML and PyDML algorithm scripts, respond to
+     user feedback to ensure SystemML meets the requirements of real-world
+     situations, write papers, and present talks about SystemML.
+   - Continue to produce releases.
+   - Increase the diversity of our project's contributors and committers.
  
  Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
  aware of?
  
+   NONE.

+   Our mailing list from May through July had 237 messages including a wide
+   range of topics. We have gained 6 new contributors since May 1st. On GitHub,
+   the project has been starred 365 times and forked 129 times. Fred Reiss
+   spoke at Spark Summit on June 7 about building custom machine learning
+   algorithms with SystemML. Mike Dusenberry presented about SystemML on May 19
+   at Datapalooza Denver. Elgohary, Boehm, Haas, Reiss, and Reinwald published
+   Compressed Linear Algebra for Large-Scale Machine Learning.

- Date of last release:
+   We produced our second Apache release, version 0.10.0-incubating. The
+   project has had 205 commits since May 1, and 187 issues have been reported on
+   our JIRA site and 127 issues have been resolved. 70 pull requests have been
+   created since May 1, and 63 of these have been closed.
