[DRAFT] Dubbo incubator Report - December 2018
Hi All,
Below is a draft of December's report, please feel free to add any comments.
===
Dubbo
Dubbo is a high-performance, lightweight, java based RPC framework.
Dubbo has been incubating since 2018-02-16.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Ensure more discussion and decision making to be happening on the
mailing list.
2. Release 2.7.0, the first release after package renaming.
3. Transfer more qualified external Dubbo ecosystem projects into Apache.
4. Add more committers and PPMC members.
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
None

No matter it's an increase or decrease compared to the previous quarter, we
are focusing more on processing issues and pull requests on the GitHub. In
my own opinion, I think this is quite critical to build a strong and active
community. That is, we hope we can process issues/PR more quickly in the
future :)

Add more explanations:
Since last report, the communities has welcomed 6 new committers and 2
new PPMC members. Comparing to last quarter, when we have 4 new
committers and no new PPMC members. The number of contributors have
grown from 119 to 144.
I think the following events have played key parts of helping the
community to grow:
0. Ian Luo and Jun Liu have delivered a a talk "Introducing Apache
Dubbo(Incubating): What is Dubbo and How it Works" in ApacheCon
Montreal.
1. With a discussion with mentors in ApacheCon Montreal, the Dubbo
community and learned a lot about how to build the community. One key
takeaway is that to keep the bar for becoming a committer low.
2. Dave Fisher has becoming our new mentor.
3. Apache project meetup in ShangHai has been held in Oct 13th
4. Our mentor Justin has visited Alibaba, and give a talk on
navigating through the incubator process
5. COSCon'18 has been held in Shenzhen, China, where Craig L.Russell,
Dave Fisher, and Justin have delivered a lot of wonderful talks about
ASF.
The closed PRs actually drops from 287 to 190, one of the reason I can
think is that some of the committers were busy with other things, with
their activities back and community continues to grow , I remain
positive that the stats can grow in next few months.

Hi,
While the statistic are interesting it’s better to tell the story behind them and why they have changed. For instance the mail and GitHub stats don’t really mean much on their own, but it would be nice to know why there’s been an increase in closed PRs (I don’t know). Or why that their been a sudden influx of committers and PMC members (I can take a guess at this). You may also want to mention any meetups, conferences and similar events that have happened that have helped community growth since the last report.
Thanks,
Justin
