DRAFT report February 2016 -- please review
Incubator PMC report for February 2016
The Apache Incubator is the entry path into the ASF for projects and
codebases wishing to become part of the Foundation's efforts.
There are 49 podlings currently undergoing incubation.
* Community
New IPMC members:
- Greg Trasuk
* New Podlings
- iota (formerly Tempo)
- Beam (formerly Dataflow)
* Graduations
None this month.
* Releases
The following releases entered distribution during the month of
January:
- 2016-01-07 Apache Trafodion 1.3.0-incubating
- 2016-01-08 Apache Slider 0.90.2-incubating
- 2016-01-13 Apache HTrace 4.0.1-incubating
- 2016-01-14 Apache Singa 0.2.0
- 2016-01-17 Apache Malhar v3.3.0-incubating
- 2016-01-21 Apache Zeppelin 0.5.6-incubating
- 2016-01-25 Apache Ranger 0.5.1
- 2016-01-26 Apache Twill 0.7.0-incubating
- 2016-01-28 Apache FreeMarker 2.3.24-rc01-incubating
Wave's release candidate finally received its 3rd and 4th IPMC +1 votes,
nearly three months after it was submitted to general@incubator on
November 3rd, 2015.
* IP Clearance
- Thomas Weise, Siyuan Hua, Jean-Baptiste Note, and Datatorrent Inc.
donated Kafka on YARN (KOYA), an "app-package" built for use with Apache
Slider (incubating).
* Legal / Trademarks
More podlings have begun reviewing names prior to entry into the Incubator
in order to avoid the inconvenience of mid-incubation name change to
users, developers and Apache Infra.
- The proposed "Dataflow" podling adopted the name "Beam" because the
Dataflow brand was not donated -- Google will continue to provide
"Google Cloud Dataflow".
- The proposed "Tempo" podling renamed itself "iota", in part to avoid the
possibility of confusion with a similarly named project.
* Miscellaneous
- Several podlings experienced difficulties implementing Apache
requirements for LICENSE and NOTICE. Draft documentation provided by
Todd Lipcon was discussed.
- Some incoming proposals have started adopting the "Additional Interested
Contributors" section, which allows people to express interest in the
project while deferring the sensitive subject of commit privileges.

How has the project developed since the last report?
1. We have developed a few more analysis tools to support multi-variable
diagnostic analyses. The new tools are random forest importance ranking
and empirical orthogonal function.
2. We have enhanced the web browser capability of our analysis tools. We
make a callable URL for each service call with user specified
configuration to run the service. With the URL, one can easily share
their analysis configuration and result with their colleagues.
3. The provenance support system is further enhanced by adding a function
to generate a knowledge graph with customizable options for the
entities involved and connections between the entities.
4. We developed a docker image for the analysis system and deployed in our
development server.

Shepherd/Mentor notes:
Chris Nauroth (cnauroth):
Once again, I'll echo concerns about lack of activity and potential
long-term viability of the project.
Julian Hyde (jhyde):
I share Chris's concerns. The project claim that activity is happening
in private; if so, it would be hugely beneficial to make that activity
public. Having said that, filing a report on time and appointing a
committer is activity, and that is appreciated.

--------------------
Kudu
Kudu is a distributed columnar storage engine built for the Apache Hadoop
ecosystem.
Kudu has been incubating since 2015-12-03.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Continue to move over infrastructure (JIRA, etc) to ASF
2. Build a more diverse development and user community
3. Perform releases under the ASF
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?
- In January, we have received patches from three new contributors. The
patches were of varying size (from trivial to quite significant) but
we're encouraged that new developers are finding the patch submission
process approachable.
- Overall >110 patches were committed in January from 11 developers
representing three organizations. Discounting some large patches which
replaced our copyright boilerplate, license notices, etc, around
10-12kloc were changed in January. This is a substantial increase
compared to December which had only 29 patches, representing less than
1000 lines of changed code.
Lines of code are not a primary metric we track, but the above shows
that the community is getting back into rapid and lively development
after a lull during the holiday season. This is also evident in the dev
list traffic (1084 messages so far in January).
- Community members continue to give public talks about Kudu at various
conferences and meetups. Talks were delivered at meetups in Atlanta and
Palo Alto, and more are being scheduled for the coming months.
- The public Kudu Slack channel has proven fairly popular among both the
developer and user communities. The group now has 116 members, of which
~20 are typically active on an average weekday.
How has the project developed since the last report?
Since the last report, we've accomplished the following milestones:
- We set up a workflow and scripting for committers to easily push work
that has been reviewed on Gerrit into our official ASF repository. We
are following the best practices established by the AsterixDB podling.
- We moved over our user and developer discussions to ASF mailing lists
and discontinued usage of our old Google Groups. Migration of JIRA is an
ongoing project which we hope to close out this coming month.
- We set up publicly-accessible precommit builds so that non-Cloudera
contributors can see automated test results for their contributions.
- We adjusted our licensing boilerplate and documentation to comply with
our understanding of ASF policies. We also started to build scripting
for doing ASF-style source releases. We are planning on doing our first
release in the incubator in early Feb.
Date of last release:
None under the ASF. Outside of the ASF, we released 0.6.0 on 11/24/2015.
When were the last committers or PMC members elected?
None since initial incubation.

log4cxx2
Logging for C++
log4cxx2 has been incubating since 2013-12-09.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Create a release
2. Activate some community
3.
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
There's an ongoing discussion to move the project to attic unless it is
able to release in the next few months.
How has the community developed since the last report?
Not grown. However, the project aims to become a sub project of Apache
Logging again. Community growth is not much a matter for this podling, as
long as there are a few active contributors.
How has the project developed since the last report?
After the discussion about the activity of the project and the success of
the incubation process, there's currently a member willing to step through
the release process. The initial plan on incubation anyway was to primary
apply available patches and release those bug fixes.
Additionally, there's once more a discussion about the supported build
platforms, because currently the project heavily focusses on cpptasks,
which is not maintained and simply doesn't support current versions of all
formerly supported IDEs anymore. The current focus is on dropping
cpptasks and ANT for the build of the software and use autoconf and/or
cmake instead.

Milagro
Distributed Cryptography; M-Pin protocol for Identity and Trust
Milagro has been incubating since 2015-12-21.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Import the Software
2. Develop the community
3. Establish the project's identity
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
n/a
How has the community developed since the last report?
The community has voted to invite four further developers to join as
committers and PPMC members. Two of these were omissions from the Initial
Committers list; the others are new. We are in the process of inviting
them.
How has the project developed since the last report?
Milagro is still in the very early stages of incubation, and performing
the mechanical tasks of code movement and infrastructure setup is our
first priority.
We have started developing the community on the Apache mailinglists, but
have yet to move other activities to Apache.

Shepherd/Mentor notes:
Nick Burch (nick):
It's a shame that the large amount of private work done can't be
contributed back to the project, as that could've been a big help. We
are seeing activity again, and the work towards a release which could
help grow interest. More committers are needed, but no strong
candidates are currently visible, so outreach work is needed. Despite
these issues, the project certainly deserves another 3 months to see if
they can turn the corner.

S2Graph
S2Graph is a distributed and scalable OLTP graph database built on Apache
HBase to support fast traversal of extremely large graphs.
S2Graph has been incubating since 2015-11-29.

SystemML
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 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:
- 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.
- Produce a release (in progress).
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
NONE. We have resolved our blocking infrastructure issues related to
project JIRA.
How has the community developed since the last report?
Our mailing list in January had 123 messages (7 of which were Jenkins). We
have had several useful discussions on the mailing list concerning various
aspects of SystemML. We have had several additional discussions on our
JIRA site and in our Pull Request conversations. We have received
usability feedback which includes filing JIRA issues and mailing list
activity.
How has the project developed since the last report?
Numerous additions have been made to the project, including core
functionality, usability improvements, and documentation. The project has
had 96 commits since January 6. In the last 30 days, 126 new issues have
been reported on our JIRA site and 68 issues have been resolved. We are in
the process of producing our first Apache release, version 0.9.0. RC3
passed the SystemML PMC vote and is currently being voted on by the IPMC.

TinkerPop
TinkerPop is a graph computing framework written in Java
TinkerPop has been incubating since 2015-01-16.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Add more members to the PPMC.
2. Add more members to the committer list.
3. N/A (unless the mentors have ideas?)
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be

Nothing at this time.
How has the community developed since the last report?
We have 2 new committers: Dylan Millikin and Ted Wilmes. Ted Wilmes has
also joined the PPMC.
How has the project developed since the last report?
Since the last status report, 166 new JIRA issues have been created and127
have been resolved. Travis CI has been enabled so all PRs are
automatically built and tested upon submittal. Open discussions of project
related activities and decisions continue on the TinkerPop dev mailing
list.
We continue to reach out to other Apache projects to discuss integration
possibilities. Since the last report, we have had discussions with Apache
Flink and Apache S2Graph about adding TinkerPop support.
A number of graph providers have released new versions of their software
with TinkerPop support. These include Stardog, Blazegraph, and OrientDB
(via the community driven, orientdb-gremlin). This demonstrates a
continued community interest, and demand for TinkerPop support.
A tutorials section has been added to the TinkerPop homepage along with a
number of tutorials targeted at the TinkerPop beginner. The hope is that
this will lower the barrier of entry for new folks who are interested in
the graph space and TinkerPop in particular.

Hadrian Zbarcea (hadrian):
TinkerPop is making good progress. If they focus on the 2 points above
relating to growing the community I think they'll be ready to graduate.
--------------------
Twill
Twill is an abstraction over Apache Hadoop® YARN to reduce the complexity
of developing distributed applications.
Twill has been incubating since 2013-11-14.
Top three items to resolve before graduation:
- More engagement from the community.
- Improve documentations and examples.
- Increase adoption.
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
- None at this time.
How has the community developed since the last report?
- Graduation discussion is happening in dev mailing list
- Published release 0.7.0-incubating
- 10 new JIRA issues filed since last report
- 7 JIRA issues resolved since last report
- 1 new contributors submitted patches
How has the project developed since the last report?
- Version 0.8.0-incubating is being worked upon
- Support for Azure Blob Storage
Date of last release:
- 2016-01-26: 0.7.0-incubating
What are the plans for the next period?
- Encourage contributions from active users
- Identify potential committers
- Engage more on social channels (IRC and Twitter)
When were the last committers or PMC members elected?

Unomi
Unomi is a reference implementation of the OASIS Context Server
specification currently being worked on by the OASIS Context Server
Technical Committee. It provides a high-performance user profile and event
tracking server.
Unomi has been incubating since 2015-10-05.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Improve documentation on the website
2. Make some incubating releases
3. Grow the community size and diversity.
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?
We got feedbacks from users and interested people. They are now mostly
waiting for the 1.0.0-incubating release. That's our highest priority
right now.
How has the project developed since the last report?
Our focus was on Unomi 1.0.0-incubating release. Unfortunately, a couple
of issues (see next section) blocked the vote.
We are fixing those issues to submit a take 3 on 1.0.0-incubating release.
Date of last release:
Unomi 1.0.0-incubating (take 2) has been called to vote, but the vote
didn't passed due to:
* the src distribution included binaries
* the NOTICE file was incomplete
We were concerned by the NOTICE as it wasn't obvious and not clear (both
on the licensing howto and on the mailing list). Following Justin McLean
advices, we should be able to update the NOTICE (hopefully, this one will
be complete). We are now working on 1.0.0-incubating (take 3) release.
When were the last committers or PMC members elected?
None

Greets,
The Metron report, pasted below, was filed late (partly due to wiki
permission issues), but I see from the dev@metron archives that it was
prepared last week.
I also see that Billie Rinaldi approved the report in an email, so
I've taken the liberty of signing off on her behalf.
I'm happy to help out a new podling but please get in the habit of
filing your reports on time. :)

--------------------
Metron
Metron integrates a variety of open source big data technologies in order to
offer a centralized tool for security monitoring and analysis. Metron
provides capabilities for log aggregation, full packet capture indexing,
storage, advanced behavioral analytics and data enrichment, while applying
the most current threat-intelligence information to security telemetry
within a single platform.
Metron has been incubating since 12-08-2015
Three most important issues to address in the move towards
Graduation.
- Building a diverse community of developers for Metron
- Getting security practitioners to provide feedback on requirements
- Make an Apache release
Any issues that the Incubator PMC or ASF Board might wish/need to be aware
of?
- We are currently trying to produce the first Apache release of Metron
- We would like to request Apache infrastructure (a Jenkins server) for CI
How has the community developed since the last report
- We started working on implementing a variety of new features on Metron
- We did a Meetup in the DC area jointly with Capital One. We had over 75
people in attendance with many expressing interest in joining the Metron
project
How has the project developed since the last report
- This month we have closed 7 key Jiras and built up scripts for standing
up an integration and test environment for Metron that anyone in the
community can take advantage of

Great, hope that works out!

I'm thinking of last October, when Jukka resurfaced briefly.
http://markmail.org/message/t3je5zjoniu3shwx
http://s.apache.org/yi8
When Jukka took over as Chair, there were ~57 podlings, many of whom needed
some nudging towards either graduation or retirement. After an aggressive
push, that number fell to around ~30.
Last October, we had ~43 podlings and there were several pending graduations
and retirements. Now we have ~48.
http://incubator.apache.org/history/
The garden of the Incubator has not been left untended -- in particular, we've
been better about retirements. But we could stand to do a little more
nudging.

Hi Marvin,
As the report mentions, community growth/involvement is the most
important/only issue holding Blur back from graduating. I think a key
ingredient to progress on this could be someone stepping up to give some
"Intro to Blur" presentations (or some other outreach) to get the name out
there as an alternative to the other two popular search systems, which has
only happened sporadically thus far.
I must have missed an IPMC discussion of an "up or out" push somewhere... I
think it's a fair nudge in any case. I'll take it back to the Blur list
and see if we can come up with a plan either way...
Thanks,
--tim

Blur has now been incubating for a while: 3 1/2 years. The Incubator has a
lot of podlings right now and at some point there's going to be an "up or out"
push. What is holding back Blur from graduation and how can progress be

It's appreciated that CMDA took the time to produce detailed information on
project development. However, that alone does not make a report -- in fact,
it's not the most important part of a report. The ASF is technology-neutral
by design and while it nice to see activity described, the Board and the IPMC
don't interfere at the technical level and thus have limited use for such
info. How the *community* is developing is more germane.
This report is incomplete and has no Mentor signoff, so I expect to remove it
and ask CMDA to resubmit next month.

Thanks, Chris and Julian! That's great constructive criticism and we all hope

Please don't be discouraged -- the requirements of NOTICE are fundamentally
difficult and the first incubating release is always the hardest. Since most
of the IP clearance and licensing work only has to be done once, it gets
easier from here!

Yes -- this email is a snapshot draft, and what gets filed will be
taken from the wiki, including subsequent changes made to the wiki

> Unomi
>
> Unomi is a reference implementation of the OASIS Context Server
> specification currently being worked on by the OASIS Context Server
> Technical Committee. It provides a high-performance user profile and event
> tracking server.
>
> Unomi has been incubating since 2015-10-05.
>
> Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
>
> 1. Improve documentation on the website
> 2. Make some incubating releases
> 3. Grow the community size and diversity.
>
> 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?
>
> We got feedbacks from users and interested people. They are now mostly
> waiting for the 1.0.0-incubating release. That's our highest priority
> right now.
>
> How has the project developed since the last report?
>
> Our focus was on Unomi 1.0.0-incubating release. Unfortunately, a couple
> of issues (see next section) blocked the vote.
>
> We are fixing those issues to submit a take 3 on 1.0.0-incubating release.
>
> Date of last release:
>
> Unomi 1.0.0-incubating (take 2) has been called to vote, but the vote
> didn't passed due to:
>
> * the src distribution included binaries
> * the NOTICE file was incomplete
>
> We were concerned by the NOTICE as it wasn't obvious and not clear (both
> on the licensing howto and on the mailing list). Following Justin McLean
> advices, we should be able to update the NOTICE (hopefully, this one will
> be complete). We are now working on 1.0.0-incubating (take 3) release.
