For Review -- Draft August Podling Report
Hi Mentors,
Can you please review the following draft Pirk podling report? I will post
it on the incubator report wiki once everyone is happy with it.
Thanks!
Ellison Anne
**********
Pirk
Pirk is a framework for scalable Private Information Retrieval (PIR).
Pirk has been incubating since 2016-06-17. The initial code for Pirk was
granted on 2016-07-11.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Establish a formal release process and schedule, allowing for
dependable release cycles in a manner consistent with the Apache
development process.
2. Establish a process which allows different release cycles for the core
framework, extensions/adaptors, and additional algorithms.
3. Grow the community to establish diversity of background and expertise.
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
None.
How has the community developed since the last report?
The mailing list activity, pull requests, and page views to the Apache Pirk
website (via Google Analytics) have greatly increased since the last
report.
How has the project developed since the last report?
The project has ensured that all dependencies are compliant with the Apache
License version 2.0 and that all code and documentation artifacts have the
correct Apache licensing markings and notice. The project has also
undertaken a refactor of some of the initial packages and provided more
robust support for user interaction.
Date of last release:
No releases have been made yet.
When were the last committers or PMC members elected?
Pirk is operating with its initial committers and PMC and has not yet
elected new committers or PMC members.

Drop a note to trademarks@apache.org, and cc: the private Pirk mailing
list, asking for an interpretation and approval of the information in that
JIRA.
I only say the 'private' Pirk list because trademarks@ is a private list,
and it is not appropriate to be mixing private and public lists in a
conversation.

Tim

Hi Billie,
Tim had submitted a JIRA request for the Pirk podling name search on
6.28.16:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PODLINGNAMESEARCH-108
However, it is still unassigned and thus unresolved/open. What do we need
to do in order to move it along?

Looks good to me. The important issues section typically contains items
from the graduation preparation list [1], and releases and community
building are the most common issues that podlings are working towards
addressing. So you're right on track there. Another good one is completing
the podling name search.

Sounds good to me.
I will volunteer to be the RM (it's good to learn how it's done early on) -
I will just need some wisdom and guidance from the mentors ;)
I did see this guide for NiFi:
https://nifi.apache.org/release-guide.html
And these for for Accumulo:
https://accumulo.apache.org/releasing
https://accumulo.apache.org/verifying_releases
Any others that we should follow?
I had stubbed out 'How to Make a Release' page on our website - we can fill
it in as we go along through the process.

+1 from me.
Given the activity on the project over the past few weeks, should we start
planning for a first Apache release (say mid-August).
