[DISCUSS] Graduation Next Steps
In our last incubator report [1] the 3 blockers were:
* Grow the community size and diversity
* Make another incubating release
* Construct an MRUnit website to replace the existing stub
We have since:
* Added a new committer
* 0.9.0-incubating will get released in the next few days
* We have a new website
From the beginning of incubation we have:
* Added 3 new committers/PPMC members
* Done 4 releases once 0.9.0-incubating is released
* Created a real website
I think it is time to draft a proposal. Once we get consensus we can start a VOTE thread within the PPMC.
If all goes well then we can start a DISCUSS thread on general@incubator and eventually a VOTE thread there.
Here is the proposal I came up with. As Chris suggested below I am also +1 on making Brock VP. I started the initial PMC list
with the current 3 active committers, I wasnt sure who of the mentors and previous Hadoop committers want to also be part of the PMC.
The proposal is just the canned one from [2] except I replaced MRUnit for ${Project} and put in Brock for VP along with the PMC members.
I guess besides the initial PMC list the only part to think about is the ${DESCRIPTION-AND-SCOPE} which I set to be: unit testing Apache Hadoop map
reduce jobs .
X. Establish the Apache MRUnit Project
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors deems it to be in the best
interests of the Foundation and consistent with the
Foundation's purpose to establish a Project Management
Committee charged with the creation and maintenance of
open-source software related to unit testing Apache Hadoop map
reduce jobs for distribution at no charge to the public.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that a Project Management
Committee (PMC), to be known as the "Apache MRUnit Project",
be and hereby is established pursuant to Bylaws of the
Foundation; and be it further
RESOLVED, that the Apache MRUnit Project be and hereby is
responsible for the creation and maintenance of software
related to unit testing Apache Hadoop map reduce jobs;
and be it further
RESOLVED, that the office of "Vice President, Apache MRUnit" be
and hereby is created, the person holding such office to
serve at the direction of the Board of Directors as the chair
of the Apache MRUnit Project, and to have primary responsibility
for management of the projects within the scope of
responsibility of the Apache MRUnit Project; and be it further
RESOLVED, that the persons listed immediately below be and
hereby are appointed to serve as the initial members of the
Apache MRUnit Project:
* Brock Noland brock@apache.org
* Jim Donofrio jdonofrio@apache.org
* Jarek Jarcec Cecho jarec@apache.org
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that Brock Noland
be appointed to the office of Vice President, Apache MRUnit, to
serve in accordance with and subject to the direction of the
Board of Directors and the Bylaws of the Foundation until
death, resignation, retirement, removal or disqualification,
or until a successor is appointed; and be it further
RESOLVED, that the initial Apache MRUnit PMC be and hereby is
tasked with the creation of a set of bylaws intended to
encourage open development and increased participation in the
Apache MRUnit Project; and be it further
RESOLVED, that the Apache MRUnit Project be and hereby
is tasked with the migration and rationalization of the Apache
Incubator MRUnit podling; and be it further
RESOLVED, that all responsibilities pertaining to the Apache
Incubator MRUnit podling encumbered upon the Apache Incubator
Project are hereafter discharged.

[VOTE] Graduate Apache MRUnit from Incubator
Posted by Jim Donofrio <do...@gmail.com>.
We seem to have reached consensus on this proposal. If no one minds I'll start with the +1's from the [DISCUSS] thread below. I'll leave the vote open 72 hours and if all goes well Brock as the VP can start a DISCUSS thread on general@incubator.apache.org and eventually a VOTE thread there. We should be able to make the board meeting for May 16

Re: [DISCUSS] Graduation Next Steps

Chris,
Thanks for the guidance, I added Patrick Hunt and Nigel Daley to the initial PMC:
X. Establish the Apache MRUnit Project
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors deems it to be in the best
interests of the Foundation and consistent with the
Foundation's purpose to establish a Project Management
Committee charged with the creation and maintenance of
open-source software related to unit testing Apache Hadoop map
reduce jobs for distribution at no charge to the public.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that a Project Management
Committee (PMC), to be known as the "Apache MRUnit Project",
be and hereby is established pursuant to Bylaws of the
Foundation; and be it further
RESOLVED, that the Apache MRUnit Project be and hereby is
responsible for the creation and maintenance of software
related to unit testing Apache Hadoop map reduce jobs;
and be it further
RESOLVED, that the office of "Vice President, Apache MRUnit" be
and hereby is created, the person holding such office to
serve at the direction of the Board of Directors as the chair
of the Apache MRUnit Project, and to have primary responsibility
for management of the projects within the scope of
responsibility of the Apache MRUnit Project; and be it further
RESOLVED, that the persons listed immediately below be and
hereby are appointed to serve as the initial members of the
Apache MRUnit Project:
* Brock Noland brock@apache.org
* Patrick Hunt phunt@apache.org
* Nigel Daley nigel@apache.org
* Eric Sammer esammer@apache.org
* Aaron Kimball kimballa@apache.org
* Konstantin Boudnik cos@apache.org
* Garrett Wu gwu@apache.org
* Jim Donofrio jdonofrio@apache.org
* Jarek Jarcec Cecho jarec@apache.org
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that Brock Noland
be appointed to the office of Vice President, Apache MRUnit, to
serve in accordance with and subject to the direction of the
Board of Directors and the Bylaws of the Foundation until
death, resignation, retirement, removal or disqualification,
or until a successor is appointed; and be it further
RESOLVED, that the initial Apache MRUnit PMC be and hereby is
tasked with the creation of a set of bylaws intended to
encourage open development and increased participation in the
Apache MRUnit Project; and be it further
RESOLVED, that the Apache MRUnit Project be and hereby
is tasked with the migration and rationalization of the Apache
Incubator MRUnit podling; and be it further
RESOLVED, that all responsibilities pertaining to the Apache
Incubator MRUnit podling encumbered upon the Apache Incubator

Re: [DISCUSS] Graduation Next Steps
Posted by "Mattmann, Chris A (388J)" <ch...@jpl.nasa.gov>.
Hi Jim,
+1 to graduate, and great work pushing this along so far. +1 for
Brock to be VP.
I'd consider being extra inclusive as far as anyone that's been a mentor or
PPMC member to date. I would include all mentors as the resolution won't likely
pass unless there are some senior ASF peeps on it. I would at least leave Patrick
(the project's Champion), and also consider adding Nige since he was a big supporter
of the project. At the ASF, merit doesn't expire, and if they've contributed ever, they are
strong members of the community whether they are actively contributing or not. Life
happens, so it's understandable peeps may drift from direct activity from time to time.
So, net effect, I'd add Patrick and Nige to the resolution. That being said...(and you're
going to say, hey, what the heck, he just got off his soap box about being extra inclusive,
and...) I've got enough projects on my plate and am super happy with the way that
the MRUnit community has grown and I've felt I've helped in my mentor role to date
and been useful *but*, I'd humbly request that you don't include me in the resolution.
Great job and I wish you guys the best. I'll hang around on the mailing list and help
where I can going forward, but no need to be on another committee for me.
So here's my proposed list:
> * Brock Noland brock@apache.org
> * Eric Sammer esammer@apache.org
> * Aaron Kimball kimballa@apache.org
> * Konstantin Boudnik cos@apache.org
> * Garrett Wu gwu@apache.org
> * Jim Donofrio jdonofrio@apache.org
> * Jarek Jarcec Cecho jarec@apache.org
* Patrick Hunt phunt@apache.org
* Nigel Daley nigel@apache.org
Cheers,
Chris

Hi,
This looks good me! Also, thank you for the honor of suggesting
myself as VP! :)
I would think that the committers mentioned on this page
http://incubator.apache.org/projects/mrunit.html would also be in the
list? Many of them have been active, if not on JIRA, recently.
