podling report draft - September 2019
Hi,
I finish the draft of the report.
Please supply the content if I miss something.
IoTDB is a data store for managing large amounts of time series data such
as timestamped data from IoT sensors in industrial applications.
IoTDB has been incubating since 2018-11-18.
1. Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
- Discuss a plan for releasing future versions (e.g., how long time to
release a new major/minor version)
- Discuss the roadmap of future versions (what features we want to do in
the next version)
- Write documents for introducing the system architecture and code
structures to make it easy to let contributors join.
2. Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
- No
3. How has the community developed since the last report?
- Some new contributors joined the community. E.g., PR#339 comes from a
new contributor and it is really an interesting feature.
- Some contributors (who are not committers yet) are more active than
before. E.g., Boris Zhu and Jack Tsai.
- More users began to report their issues. E.g., issue #171, #184 and #186.
As all the above contributions and contributors are not from the
institutions/companies where initial committers are, we think it is a good
signal that indicates more guys noticing the community.
4. How has the project developed since the last report?
- IoTDB releases its first Apache version: v0.8.0 !
- IoTDB is more stable and the performance is far better than before.
However, the version is incompatible with previous version (which are
released before IoTDB is denoted to ASF).
- In v0.8.0, many issues are resolved (see release notes:
http://iotdb.apache.org/#/Materials/Release%20Notes )
5. How would you assess the podling's maturity? Please feel free to add
your own commentary.

Hi,
I update the draft according to Chris and Justin's suggestions. If there is
no more suggestion, I will update it to the confluence.

I would not list this as am issue, the question is does it block graduation? In this case it does not as there is no need for a plan like this. Not having a plan may be better and fit in more with a voluntary group of contributors.
IMO Having documentation to help new contributors is far more important.
Thanks,
Justin

Hi Chris,
I agree. At least for me, I think it is difficult to finish all steps for
releasing just myself...
How about change the "Three most important unfinished issues to address
before graduating" as,
- Make the community (both the contributors and committers/PPMCs) more
diverse and learn to discuss things on the mailing list.
- More committers should know how to release a version.
- Have a plan for the future releasing (e.g., how long time to release a
new major/minor version).
I merged the 3 points into 2, and retain one from the draft.

I think some of the points needed for graduation should be :
- learn to discuss things on the mailinglist
- grow a mit diverse community (as it feels like all ppmcs seem to be well connected and for me there's the impression of off list coordination). So you definitely need some outsiders in the ppmc.
- during the release I had the impression most of the ppmcs were not doing their ppmc duties in thoroughly evaluating the rc. You need to learn how to release stuff. It worked this time because you had huge help by your mentors and by Julian.

Hi,
I finish the draft of the report.
Please supply the content if I miss something.
IoTDB is a data store for managing large amounts of time series data such
as timestamped data from IoT sensors in industrial applications.
IoTDB has been incubating since 2018-11-18.
1. Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
- Discuss a plan for releasing future versions (e.g., how long time to
release a new major/minor version)
- Discuss the roadmap of future versions (what features we want to do in
the next version)
- Write documents for introducing the system architecture and code
structures to make it easy to let contributors join.
2. Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
- No
3. How has the community developed since the last report?
- Some new contributors joined the community. E.g., PR#339 comes from a
new contributor and it is really an interesting feature.
- Some contributors (who are not committers yet) are more active than
before. E.g., Boris Zhu and Jack Tsai.
- More users began to report their issues. E.g., issue #171, #184 and #186.
As all the above contributions and contributors are not from the
institutions/companies where initial committers are, we think it is a good
signal that indicates more guys noticing the community.
4. How has the project developed since the last report?
- IoTDB releases its first Apache version: v0.8.0 !
- IoTDB is more stable and the performance is far better than before.
However, the version is incompatible with previous version (which are
released before IoTDB is denoted to ASF).
- In v0.8.0, many issues are resolved (see release notes:
http://iotdb.apache.org/#/Materials/Release%20Notes )
