JE: The podling is definitely finding their legs in creating and releasing
software, but very little progress has been made on growing the community
(no prospective members).
I am also happy with the state of trademarks for the podling.

Guacamole
Guacamole is an enterprise-grade, protocol-agnostic, remote desktop gateway.
Combined with cloud hosting, Guacamole provides an excellent alternative to
traditional desktops. Guacamole aims to make cloud-hosted desktop access
preferable to traditional, local access.
Guacamole has been incubating since 2016-02-10.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. **Making the first Guacamole release under the Apache Incubator**
2. Encouraging community participation and contribution
3. Accepting additional committers
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
It is clear that the continuing lack of a release is a major obstacle to
community development, especially given outstanding pull requests which
cannot be merged due to pre-release code freeze.
We believe that the source and documentation are finally up-to-date with
respect to Apache and the Incubator, and that we are ready to move forward
with the procedures surrounding the release. Any assistance in navigating
our first release would be greatly appreciated.
How has the community developed since the last report?
Community participation has remained roughly the same as last report.
Mailing
list participation is active but unchanged. Since last report, we have
received an additional 3 pull requests, and have engaged the contributors
for
code review. Code looks good, and response to feedback has been
professional,
but merge is blocked until we can get the first release out of the way.
How has the project developed since the last report?
All outstanding issues which were aimed at the project's first release
(0.9.10-incubating) have been completed, as have all bugs discovered
during
testing. We have made preparatory changes to the project website with the
release in mind.
The project's old SourceForge forums have finally been closed, replaced by
the mailing lists. The forums have been left in read-only mode for the
sake
of reference, with a stickied announcement notifying users of the move.
Date of last release:
2015-12-18 (0.9.9, prior to Apache Incubator)
When were the last committers or PMC members elected?
The most recent committer, Frode Langelo, was accepted into the
project by VOTE on 2016-04-03, with the required ICLA received on
2016-04-05.

contributors who were active before August have continued their
involvement by authoring new patches. Traffic to our developer mailing
list has grown by about 60%.
How has the project developed since the last report?
There have been 241 commits since the last report.
Our status website now has 16 of the 17 listed work items complete. We
had our first Apache release and have a wiki page describing how to
perform the release in detail. We scrubbed our code using the RAT tool
for copyright notices not compliant with the ASF rules. We wrote
guidelines for contributors on how to become a committer and added a
new committer. All developer documentation has now moved to the
Apache-hosted wiki.

Slider
Slider is a collection of tools and technologies to package, deploy, and
manage long running applications on Apache Hadoop YARN clusters.
Slider has been incubating since 2014-04-29.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Apache Slider community/PPMC has voted to move portions of Slider into
Apache Hadoop YARN as modules. It is possible that the remaining pieces
will be moved at a later point in time or become obsolete or evolve to
work closely with YARN. Slider PPMC will decide what makes the most
sense as we progress through this exciting time.
2. Getting more external users
3. Growth of a diverse set of developers/committers/PMC members is also
crucial towards the final state of Slider
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
No.
How has the community developed since the last report?
The Apache Hadoop YARN community/PMC and Apache Slider community/PPMC
had decided to move portions of Slider into YARN, to make fast and
significant
progress on: YARN-4692 - [Umbrella] Simplified and first-class support for
services in YARN. As a result, the Slider Core module (including Application
Master, Client and Java unit tests) has been rolled into an Apache Hadoop
YARN feature branch as a hadoop-yarn-slider-core module.
This effort is being captured in: YARN-5079 : Native YARN framework layer
for services. All the migrations are happening in a branch (namely
yarn-native-services) created of off Hadoop trunk. As a result of this,
we are already seeing interest in the Hadoop committers/PMC, who have
started to contribute and submit patches to Slider.
In order to support existing users of Slider, and to provide seamless
migration, there will be sufficient overlap between the time when a stable
state of long running services support is available in some future version
of YARN and the time till an independent Slider release is available. The
community/PPMC will also determine the future state of Slider as we
navigate through these changes.
The discussions on the Slider and YARN community DLs can be viewed here -
https://s.apache.org/0hoh
https://s.apache.org/MncV
For the benefit of those who would like to use Slider Core from the
Hadoop codebase, but continue to use classic Slider Agent and legacy
app-packages, a new branch (yarn-native-services) has been created
in classic Slider repo. This branch retains only the Agent (python) code
and the App Packages. It adds Slider Core module as a Hadoop
dependency. This allows users to consume the latest of Slider Core.
Future classic Slider releases can be made purely off of this branch.
Additionally an effort is being made to create an agent-less provider for
legacy app-packages, which could help users to completely migrate to
Hadoop codebase for creating long-running services with Slider. Expectation
from app-package owners would be to make minor modification of their
packages. Primary changes would be to shed the dependency on python
Agent code, effectively making packages much simpler than what they
look like today in classic Slider.
How has the project developed since the last report?
There has been fewer bug fixes on the classic Slider side as most of
the focus has been on developing features on native YARN services in
the Hadoop codebase. Work continues on support for complex services
(assemblies) and agent-less applications in Slider. The efforts on Slider
Core will continue in the new services branch created in YARN. Few
key features which were merged to classic Slider as well were -
SLIDER-875 - Ability to create an Uber application package with
capability to deploy and manage as a single business app, and
SLIDER-1107 - Generate app configuration files in AM. Several issues
identified by Coverity scans were resolved as well. Additionally few
patches were contributed by the community fixing functional and
performance issues. Slider community plans to ship a release in the
next quarter with all these features and bug fixes.

Spot
Apache Spot is a solution stack that provides the capability to ingest
network related telemetry (network flows, domain name service information
and
proxy server logs) and provide unsupervised machine learning capabilities to
identify suspicious activity. The information is organized and presented
using operational analytics so that a security analyst can investigate the
most suspicious connections. Apache Spot is built on an open data model
using
Apache Spark and Apache Hadoop.
Spot has been incubating since 2016-09-23.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
- Move infrastructure and development to ASF (code, issues, mailing list,
…)
- Build diverse community
- Demonstrate ability to create releases
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware
of?
We currently have a hard dependency via our LDA implementation that
requires a GPL license. A rewrite is in progress to move the code from
LDA-C to Spark LDA.
How has the community developed since the last report?
This is first report after accepting Apache Spot to incubator and we still
have not transitioned everything to ASF. We do however see increased
interest in the project, primarily on our Slack channel.

Tamaya
Tamaya is a highly flexible configuration solution based on an modular,
extensible and injectable key/value based design, which should provide a
minimal but extendible modern and functional API leveraging SE, ME and EE
environments.
Tamaya has been incubating since 2014-11-14.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Extend Community
2. Improve Documentation and release base components
3. Graduate als TLP in 2017 after next releases
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
After our next releases and improving our homepage we'd like to graduate as
a TLP in 2017.
How has the community developed since the last report?
We have increasing feedback of use cases to be covered and also a few
bug reports, so Tamaya is used by developers and companies.
Additionally we are doing regular bi-weekly hangouts and have defined a
well defined roadmap to release and restructure our project.
Apart from that we gathered feedback from JavaOne 2016: official
Configuration JSR proposal and Anatole had a talk there.
The conflicts that arose in the past seem to be solved as some of the
mentors and early committers have left the project. Since we've
established our hangouts we have the feeling of beeing more connect and
able to work towards a common goal.
How has the project developed since the last report?
Apart from the main project we established new repositories to hold
extensions and sandbox modules. In order to get rid of the problematic
webpage generation we decided to start from scratch.
In addition to making the API more smooth, we try to keep the base
repository/project as lean as possible and prepare a next release.
Due to various technical issues (infrastructure behaves differently from
local builds and checkouts) we did not meet our deadline on getting a
release out by the end of October.

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. Continued releases, and updated dependencies
2. Grow up user and contributor communities, seeing more contribution/PR
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware

We are still targeting the development of the user community. For that, we
discussed about improving and polishing the website. Today, it's obvious
that it's not easy to understand what Unomi can do and actually does. The
purpose is to give more use cases and introduction on the mailing list.
Some small improvements have been performed in that way.
How has the project developed since the last report?
The second Apache Unomi 1.1.0-incubating has been released.
We updated key dependencies and provided new features in
addition of the bug fixes. We also fixed the LGPL issue in the binary
distribution.

Re: [DRAFT] Incubator PMC Board Report - November 2016
Posted by "John D. Ament" <jo...@apache.org>.
Ack'd. Please see the final draft. All podlings received sign offs so I
didn't email any individual dev lists. Interested PPMC members should be
subscribed to general@ while the podling is under incubation, to be aware
of incubator wide discussions.
As an aside, I would recommend that more mentors look at your report in the
future, but I see nothing wrong with it (it's more of a mentor engagement
problem).

Re: [DRAFT] Incubator PMC Board Report - November 2016
Posted by "John D. Ament" <jo...@apache.org>.
Ack'd. Please see the final draft. All podlings received sign offs so I
didn't email any individual dev lists. Interested PPMC members should be
subscribed to general@ while the podling is under incubation, to be aware
of incubator wide discussions.
As an aside, I would recommend that more mentors look at your report in the
future, but I see nothing wrong with it (it's more of a mentor engagement
problem).

> Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

> 1. Apache Slider community/PPMC has voted to move portions of Slider into
> Apache Hadoop YARN as modules. It is possible that the remaining pieces
> will be moved at a later point in time or become obsolete or evolve to
> work closely with YARN. Slider PPMC will decide what makes the most
> sense as we progress through this exciting time.
> 2. Getting more external users
> 3. Growth of a diverse set of developers/committers/PMC members is also
> crucial towards the final state of Slider
>
> Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
> aware of?
>
> No.
>
> How has the community developed since the last report?
>
> The Apache Hadoop YARN community/PMC and Apache Slider community/PPMC
> had decided to move portions of Slider into YARN, to make fast and
> significant
> progress on: YARN-4692 - [Umbrella] Simplified and first-class support for
> services in YARN. As a result, the Slider Core module (including Application
> Master, Client and Java unit tests) has been rolled into an Apache Hadoop
> YARN feature branch as a hadoop-yarn-slider-core module.
> This effort is being captured in: YARN-5079 : Native YARN framework layer
> for services. All the migrations are happening in a branch (namely
> yarn-native-services) created of off Hadoop trunk. As a result of this,
> we are already seeing interest in the Hadoop committers/PMC, who have
> started to contribute and submit patches to Slider.
>
> In order to support existing users of Slider, and to provide seamless
> migration, there will be sufficient overlap between the time when a stable
> state of long running services support is available in some future version
> of YARN and the time till an independent Slider release is available. The
> community/PPMC will also determine the future state of Slider as we
> navigate through these changes.
>
> The discussions on the Slider and YARN community DLs can be viewed here -
>
> https://s.apache.org/0hoh
> https://s.apache.org/MncV
>
> For the benefit of those who would like to use Slider Core from the
> Hadoop codebase, but continue to use classic Slider Agent and legacy
> app-packages, a new branch (yarn-native-services) has been created
> in classic Slider repo. This branch retains only the Agent (python) code
> and the App Packages. It adds Slider Core module as a Hadoop
> dependency. This allows users to consume the latest of Slider Core.
> Future classic Slider releases can be made purely off of this branch.
>
> Additionally an effort is being made to create an agent-less provider for
> legacy app-packages, which could help users to completely migrate to
> Hadoop codebase for creating long-running services with Slider. Expectation
> from app-package owners would be to make minor modification of their
> packages. Primary changes would be to shed the dependency on python
> Agent code, effectively making packages much simpler than what they
> look like today in classic Slider.
>
> How has the project developed since the last report?
>
> There has been fewer bug fixes on the classic Slider side as most of
> the focus has been on developing features on native YARN services in
> the Hadoop codebase. Work continues on support for complex services
> (assemblies) and agent-less applications in Slider. The efforts on Slider
> Core will continue in the new services branch created in YARN. Few
> key features which were merged to classic Slider as well were -
> SLIDER-875 - Ability to create an Uber application package with
> capability to deploy and manage as a single business app, and
> SLIDER-1107 - Generate app configuration files in AM. Several issues
> identified by Coverity scans were resolved as well. Additionally few
> patches were contributed by the community fixing functional and
> performance issues. Slider community plans to ship a release in the
> next quarter with all these features and bug fixes.

> Tamaya
>
> Tamaya is a highly flexible configuration solution based on an modular,
> extensible and injectable key/value based design, which should provide a

> Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

> 1. Extend Community
> 2. Improve Documentation and release base components
> 3. Graduate als TLP in 2017 after next releases
>
> Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be

>
> After our next releases and improving our homepage we'd like to graduate as
> a TLP in 2017.

>
> How has the community developed since the last report?
>
> We have increasing feedback of use cases to be covered and also a few
> bug reports, so Tamaya is used by developers and companies.
> Additionally we are doing regular bi-weekly hangouts and have defined a
> well defined roadmap to release and restructure our project.
> Apart from that we gathered feedback from JavaOne 2016: official

> How has the project developed since the last report?
>
> Apart from the main project we established new repositories to hold
> extensions and sandbox modules. In order to get rid of the problematic

> In addition to making the API more smooth, we try to keep the base
> repository/project as lean as possible and prepare a next release.
> Due to various technical issues (infrastructure behaves differently from
> local builds and checkouts) we did not meet our deadline on getting a

> Slider
>
> Slider is a collection of tools and technologies to package, deploy, and
> manage long running applications on Apache Hadoop YARN clusters.
>
> Slider has been incubating since 2014-04-29.
>
> Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
>
> 1. Apache Slider community/PPMC has voted to move portions of Slider into
> Apache Hadoop YARN as modules. It is possible that the remaining pieces
> will be moved at a later point in time or become obsolete or evolve to
> work closely with YARN. Slider PPMC will decide what makes the most
> sense as we progress through this exciting time.
> 2. Getting more external users
> 3. Growth of a diverse set of developers/committers/PMC members is also
> crucial towards the final state of Slider
>
> Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
> aware of?
>
> No.
>
> How has the community developed since the last report?
>
> The Apache Hadoop YARN community/PMC and Apache Slider community/PPMC
> had decided to move portions of Slider into YARN, to make fast and
> significant
> progress on: YARN-4692 - [Umbrella] Simplified and first-class support for
> services in YARN. As a result, the Slider Core module (including Application
> Master, Client and Java unit tests) has been rolled into an Apache Hadoop
> YARN feature branch as a hadoop-yarn-slider-core module.
> This effort is being captured in: YARN-5079 : Native YARN framework layer
> for services. All the migrations are happening in a branch (namely
> yarn-native-services) created of off Hadoop trunk. As a result of this,
> we are already seeing interest in the Hadoop committers/PMC, who have
> started to contribute and submit patches to Slider.
>
> In order to support existing users of Slider, and to provide seamless
> migration, there will be sufficient overlap between the time when a stable
> state of long running services support is available in some future version
> of YARN and the time till an independent Slider release is available. The
> community/PPMC will also determine the future state of Slider as we
> navigate through these changes.
>
> The discussions on the Slider and YARN community DLs can be viewed here -
>
> https://s.apache.org/0hoh
> https://s.apache.org/MncV
>
> For the benefit of those who would like to use Slider Core from the
> Hadoop codebase, but continue to use classic Slider Agent and legacy
> app-packages, a new branch (yarn-native-services) has been created
> in classic Slider repo. This branch retains only the Agent (python) code
> and the App Packages. It adds Slider Core module as a Hadoop
> dependency. This allows users to consume the latest of Slider Core.
> Future classic Slider releases can be made purely off of this branch.
>
> Additionally an effort is being made to create an agent-less provider for
> legacy app-packages, which could help users to completely migrate to
> Hadoop codebase for creating long-running services with Slider. Expectation
> from app-package owners would be to make minor modification of their
> packages. Primary changes would be to shed the dependency on python
> Agent code, effectively making packages much simpler than what they
> look like today in classic Slider.
>
> How has the project developed since the last report?
>
> There has been fewer bug fixes on the classic Slider side as most of
> the focus has been on developing features on native YARN services in
> the Hadoop codebase. Work continues on support for complex services
> (assemblies) and agent-less applications in Slider. The efforts on Slider
> Core will continue in the new services branch created in YARN. Few
> key features which were merged to classic Slider as well were -
> SLIDER-875 - Ability to create an Uber application package with
> capability to deploy and manage as a single business app, and
> SLIDER-1107 - Generate app configuration files in AM. Several issues
> identified by Coverity scans were resolved as well. Additionally few
> patches were contributed by the community fixing functional and
> performance issues. Slider community plans to ship a release in the
> next quarter with all these features and bug fixes.

Re: [DRAFT] Incubator PMC Board Report - November 2016
Posted by "John D. Ament" <jo...@apache.org>.
All,
Below is the current draft of the board report. We still have many
podlings who are missing mentor sign off. Mentors for DataFu, CMDA,
Fineract and Hivemall please review and sign off. Otherwise end of day
tomorrow the reports will be pulled and podlings put on monthly/extended by
1 month.

Incubator PMC report for November 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 currently 63 podlings incubating - no change from last month.
The Geode podling has begun discussions around graduation. There were two
new IPMC members added this past month. The IPMC approved 17 releases this
month as well.
* Community
New IPMC members:
- Felix Meschberger
- Stephan Ewen
People who left the IPMC:
- None
* New Podlings
- None
* Graduations
The board has motions for the following:
- None
* Releases
The following releases entered distribution during the month of
October:
- Apache Unomi 1.1.0-incubating 2016-10-03
- Apache Impala 2.7.0-incubating 2016-10-04
- Apache Fluo 1.0.0-incubating 2016-10-05

* IP Clearance
- None
* Legal / Trademarks
- Incoming podlings are pushing more for GitHub as master approaches.
- In addition, the usage of GitHub Issues continues to be asked.
- Better alignment between all impacted parties is needed for both of
these.
* Infrastructure
- While the loss of a server is never convenient, the report manager
gives huge kudos to the infra team for replacing the moin-moin wiki server
quickly, avoiding much impact on this months report.
* Miscellaneous
- None
* Credits
- Report Manager: John D. Ament

Guacamole
Guacamole is an enterprise-grade, protocol-agnostic, remote desktop gateway.
Combined with cloud hosting, Guacamole provides an excellent alternative to
traditional desktops. Guacamole aims to make cloud-hosted desktop access
preferable to traditional, local access.
Guacamole has been incubating since 2016-02-10.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. **Making the first Guacamole release under the Apache Incubator**
2. Encouraging community participation and contribution
3. Accepting additional committers
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
It is clear that the continuing lack of a release is a major obstacle to
community development, especially given outstanding pull requests which
cannot be merged due to pre-release code freeze.
We believe that the source and documentation are finally up-to-date with
respect to Apache and the Incubator, and that we are ready to move forward
with the procedures surrounding the release. Any assistance in navigating
our first release would be greatly appreciated.
How has the community developed since the last report?
Community participation has remained roughly the same as last report.
Mailing
list participation is active but unchanged. Since last report, we have
received an additional 3 pull requests, and have engaged the contributors
for
code review. Code looks good, and response to feedback has been
professional,
but merge is blocked until we can get the first release out of the way.
How has the project developed since the last report?
All outstanding issues which were aimed at the project's first release
(0.9.10-incubating) have been completed, as have all bugs discovered
during
testing. We have made preparatory changes to the project website with the
release in mind.
The project's old SourceForge forums have finally been closed, replaced by
the mailing lists. The forums have been left in read-only mode for the
sake
of reference, with a stickied announcement notifying users of the move.

Cool project, but sadly we have a very low activity
--------------------
Slider
Slider is a collection of tools and technologies to package, deploy, and
manage long running applications on Apache Hadoop YARN clusters.
Slider has been incubating since 2014-04-29.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Apache Slider community/PPMC has voted to move portions of Slider into
Apache Hadoop YARN as modules. It is possible that the remaining pieces
will be moved at a later point in time or become obsolete or evolve to
work closely with YARN. Slider PPMC will decide what makes the most
sense as we progress through this exciting time.
2. Getting more external users
3. Growth of a diverse set of developers/committers/PMC members is also
crucial towards the final state of Slider
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
No.
How has the community developed since the last report?
The Apache Hadoop YARN community/PMC and Apache Slider community/PPMC
had decided to move portions of Slider into YARN, to make fast and
significant
progress on: YARN-4692 - [Umbrella] Simplified and first-class support for
services in YARN. As a result, the Slider Core module (including Application
Master, Client and Java unit tests) has been rolled into an Apache Hadoop
YARN feature branch as a hadoop-yarn-slider-core module.
This effort is being captured in: YARN-5079 : Native YARN framework layer
for services. All the migrations are happening in a branch (namely
yarn-native-services) created of off Hadoop trunk. As a result of this,
we are already seeing interest in the Hadoop committers/PMC, who have
started to contribute and submit patches to Slider.
In order to support existing users of Slider, and to provide seamless
migration, there will be sufficient overlap between the time when a stable
state of long running services support is available in some future version
of YARN and the time till an independent Slider release is available. The
community/PPMC will also determine the future state of Slider as we
navigate through these changes.
The discussions on the Slider and YARN community DLs can be viewed here -
https://s.apache.org/0hoh
https://s.apache.org/MncV
For the benefit of those who would like to use Slider Core from the
Hadoop codebase, but continue to use classic Slider Agent and legacy
app-packages, a new branch (yarn-native-services) has been created
in classic Slider repo. This branch retains only the Agent (python) code
and the App Packages. It adds Slider Core module as a Hadoop
dependency. This allows users to consume the latest of Slider Core.
Future classic Slider releases can be made purely off of this branch.
Additionally an effort is being made to create an agent-less provider for
legacy app-packages, which could help users to completely migrate to
Hadoop codebase for creating long-running services with Slider. Expectation
from app-package owners would be to make minor modification of their
packages. Primary changes would be to shed the dependency on python
Agent code, effectively making packages much simpler than what they
look like today in classic Slider.
How has the project developed since the last report?
There has been fewer bug fixes on the classic Slider side as most of
the focus has been on developing features on native YARN services in
the Hadoop codebase. Work continues on support for complex services
(assemblies) and agent-less applications in Slider. The efforts on Slider
Core will continue in the new services branch created in YARN. Few
key features which were merged to classic Slider as well were -
SLIDER-875 - Ability to create an Uber application package with
capability to deploy and manage as a single business app, and
SLIDER-1107 - Generate app configuration files in AM. Several issues
identified by Coverity scans were resolved as well. Additionally few
patches were contributed by the community fixing functional and
performance issues. Slider community plans to ship a release in the
next quarter with all these features and bug fixes.

Spot
Apache Spot is a solution stack that provides the capability to ingest
network related telemetry (network flows, domain name service information
and
proxy server logs) and provide unsupervised machine learning capabilities to
identify suspicious activity. The information is organized and presented
using operational analytics so that a security analyst can investigate the
most suspicious connections. Apache Spot is built on an open data model
using
Apache Spark and Apache Hadoop.
Spot has been incubating since 2016-09-23.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
- Move infrastructure and development to ASF (code, issues, mailing list,
…)
- Build diverse community
- Demonstrate ability to create releases
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware
of?
We currently have a hard dependency via our LDA implementation that
requires a GPL license. A rewrite is in progress to move the code from
LDA-C to Spark LDA.
How has the community developed since the last report?
This is first report after accepting Apache Spot to incubator and we still
have not transitioned everything to ASF. We do however see increased
interest in the project, primarily on our Slack channel.

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.
- Continue to produce releases.
- Increase the diversity of our project's contributors and committers.
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?
Our mailing list from August through October had 375 messages on a wide
range
of topics. We have gained 4 new contributors to the main project since
August
1st. Our website has been redesigned with the help of several design
engineers
and we have commits from 3 new contributors to the website project. On
GitHub,
the project has been starred 417 times and forked 156 times.

Tamaya
Tamaya is a highly flexible configuration solution based on an modular,
extensible and injectable key/value based design, which should provide a
minimal but extendible modern and functional API leveraging SE, ME and EE
environments.
Tamaya has been incubating since 2014-11-14.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Extend Community
2. Improve Documentation and release base components
3. Graduate als TLP in 2017 after next releases
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
After our next releases and improving our homepage we'd like to graduate as
a TLP in 2017.
How has the community developed since the last report?
We have increasing feedback of use cases to be covered and also a few
bug reports, so Tamaya is used by developers and companies.
Additionally we are doing regular bi-weekly hangouts and have defined a
well defined roadmap to release and restructure our project.
Apart from that we gathered feedback from JavaOne 2016: official
Configuration JSR proposal and Anatole had a talk there.
The conflicts that arose in the past seem to be solved as some of the
mentors and early committers have left the project. Since we've
established our hangouts we have the feeling of beeing more connect and
able to work towards a common goal.
How has the project developed since the last report?
Apart from the main project we established new repositories to hold
extensions and sandbox modules. In order to get rid of the problematic
webpage generation we decided to start from scratch.
In addition to making the API more smooth, we try to keep the base
repository/project as lean as possible and prepare a next release.
Due to various technical issues (infrastructure behaves differently from
local builds and checkouts) we did not meet our deadline on getting a
release out by the end of October.

access Apache Spark. It enables interactive workloads between applications
and
a Spark cluster. As a Jupyter Notebook extension, it provides the user with
a
preconfigured environment for interacting with Spark using Scala, Python, R
or
SQL.
Toree has been incubating since 2015-12-02.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Make a release: The community is working on RC from 0.1.x branch. Master
has moved to start support for Spark 2.0. Currently working on RC3.
2. Grow a diverse community: We should put some emphasis on growing the
community and making it diverse (the rule is at least three independent
contributors) In progress. Project elected new PPMC member.
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware
of?
NONE, previous issue with LGPL dependency has been RESOLVED as the JeroMQ
dependency has now been released as MPL license.
How has the community developed since the last report?
1. Active communication in mailing list and gitter with early adopters
2. No worries about transitioning from old Spark Kernel code.
3. More external contributions being made. Mainly focused on master to
stabilize Spark 2.0 support
How has the project developed since the last report?
1. Working on 1st release. Got an RC3 going on for a vote
2. Addressing issues opened by community

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. Continued releases, and updated dependencies
2. Grow up user and contributor communities, seeing more contribution/PR
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 are still targeting the development of the user community. For that, we
discussed about improving and polishing the website. Today, it's obvious
that it's not easy to understand what Unomi can do and actually does. The
purpose is to give more use cases and introduction on the mailing list.
Some small improvements have been performed in that way.
How has the project developed since the last report?
The second Apache Unomi 1.1.0-incubating has been released.
We updated key dependencies and provided new features in
addition of the bug fixes. We also fixed the LGPL issue in the binary
distribution.
The Unomi rules and conditions engine has been improved as well.

Re: [DRAFT] Incubator PMC Board Report - November 2016
Posted by "John D. Ament" <jo...@apache.org>.
All,
Below is the current draft of the board report. We still have many
podlings who are missing mentor sign off. Mentors for DataFu, CMDA,
Fineract and Hivemall please review and sign off. Otherwise end of day
tomorrow the reports will be pulled and podlings put on monthly/extended by
1 month.

Guacamole
Guacamole is an enterprise-grade, protocol-agnostic, remote desktop gateway.
Combined with cloud hosting, Guacamole provides an excellent alternative to
traditional desktops. Guacamole aims to make cloud-hosted desktop access
preferable to traditional, local access.
Guacamole has been incubating since 2016-02-10.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. **Making the first Guacamole release under the Apache Incubator**
2. Encouraging community participation and contribution
3. Accepting additional committers
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
It is clear that the continuing lack of a release is a major obstacle to
community development, especially given outstanding pull requests which
cannot be merged due to pre-release code freeze.
We believe that the source and documentation are finally up-to-date with
respect to Apache and the Incubator, and that we are ready to move forward
with the procedures surrounding the release. Any assistance in navigating
our first release would be greatly appreciated.
How has the community developed since the last report?
Community participation has remained roughly the same as last report.
Mailing
list participation is active but unchanged. Since last report, we have
received an additional 3 pull requests, and have engaged the contributors
for
code review. Code looks good, and response to feedback has been
professional,
but merge is blocked until we can get the first release out of the way.
How has the project developed since the last report?
All outstanding issues which were aimed at the project's first release
(0.9.10-incubating) have been completed, as have all bugs discovered
during
testing. We have made preparatory changes to the project website with the
release in mind.
The project's old SourceForge forums have finally been closed, replaced by
the mailing lists. The forums have been left in read-only mode for the
sake
of reference, with a stickied announcement notifying users of the move.

Cool project, but sadly we have a very low activity
--------------------
Slider
Slider is a collection of tools and technologies to package, deploy, and
manage long running applications on Apache Hadoop YARN clusters.
Slider has been incubating since 2014-04-29.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Apache Slider community/PPMC has voted to move portions of Slider into
Apache Hadoop YARN as modules. It is possible that the remaining pieces
will be moved at a later point in time or become obsolete or evolve to
work closely with YARN. Slider PPMC will decide what makes the most
sense as we progress through this exciting time.
2. Getting more external users
3. Growth of a diverse set of developers/committers/PMC members is also
crucial towards the final state of Slider
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
No.
How has the community developed since the last report?
The Apache Hadoop YARN community/PMC and Apache Slider community/PPMC
had decided to move portions of Slider into YARN, to make fast and
significant
progress on: YARN-4692 - [Umbrella] Simplified and first-class support for
services in YARN. As a result, the Slider Core module (including Application
Master, Client and Java unit tests) has been rolled into an Apache Hadoop
YARN feature branch as a hadoop-yarn-slider-core module.
This effort is being captured in: YARN-5079 : Native YARN framework layer
for services. All the migrations are happening in a branch (namely
yarn-native-services) created of off Hadoop trunk. As a result of this,
we are already seeing interest in the Hadoop committers/PMC, who have
started to contribute and submit patches to Slider.
In order to support existing users of Slider, and to provide seamless
migration, there will be sufficient overlap between the time when a stable
state of long running services support is available in some future version
of YARN and the time till an independent Slider release is available. The
community/PPMC will also determine the future state of Slider as we
navigate through these changes.
The discussions on the Slider and YARN community DLs can be viewed here -
https://s.apache.org/0hoh
https://s.apache.org/MncV
For the benefit of those who would like to use Slider Core from the
Hadoop codebase, but continue to use classic Slider Agent and legacy
app-packages, a new branch (yarn-native-services) has been created
in classic Slider repo. This branch retains only the Agent (python) code
and the App Packages. It adds Slider Core module as a Hadoop
dependency. This allows users to consume the latest of Slider Core.
Future classic Slider releases can be made purely off of this branch.
Additionally an effort is being made to create an agent-less provider for
legacy app-packages, which could help users to completely migrate to
Hadoop codebase for creating long-running services with Slider. Expectation
from app-package owners would be to make minor modification of their
packages. Primary changes would be to shed the dependency on python
Agent code, effectively making packages much simpler than what they
look like today in classic Slider.
How has the project developed since the last report?
There has been fewer bug fixes on the classic Slider side as most of
the focus has been on developing features on native YARN services in
the Hadoop codebase. Work continues on support for complex services
(assemblies) and agent-less applications in Slider. The efforts on Slider
Core will continue in the new services branch created in YARN. Few
key features which were merged to classic Slider as well were -
SLIDER-875 - Ability to create an Uber application package with
capability to deploy and manage as a single business app, and
SLIDER-1107 - Generate app configuration files in AM. Several issues
identified by Coverity scans were resolved as well. Additionally few
patches were contributed by the community fixing functional and
performance issues. Slider community plans to ship a release in the
next quarter with all these features and bug fixes.

Spot
Apache Spot is a solution stack that provides the capability to ingest
network related telemetry (network flows, domain name service information
and
proxy server logs) and provide unsupervised machine learning capabilities to
identify suspicious activity. The information is organized and presented
using operational analytics so that a security analyst can investigate the
most suspicious connections. Apache Spot is built on an open data model
using
Apache Spark and Apache Hadoop.
Spot has been incubating since 2016-09-23.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
- Move infrastructure and development to ASF (code, issues, mailing list,
…)
- Build diverse community
- Demonstrate ability to create releases
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware
of?
We currently have a hard dependency via our LDA implementation that
requires a GPL license. A rewrite is in progress to move the code from
LDA-C to Spark LDA.
How has the community developed since the last report?
This is first report after accepting Apache Spot to incubator and we still
have not transitioned everything to ASF. We do however see increased
interest in the project, primarily on our Slack channel.

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.
- Continue to produce releases.
- Increase the diversity of our project's contributors and committers.
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?
Our mailing list from August through October had 375 messages on a wide
range
of topics. We have gained 4 new contributors to the main project since
August
1st. Our website has been redesigned with the help of several design
engineers
and we have commits from 3 new contributors to the website project. On
GitHub,
the project has been starred 417 times and forked 156 times.

Tamaya
Tamaya is a highly flexible configuration solution based on an modular,
extensible and injectable key/value based design, which should provide a
minimal but extendible modern and functional API leveraging SE, ME and EE
environments.
Tamaya has been incubating since 2014-11-14.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Extend Community
2. Improve Documentation and release base components
3. Graduate als TLP in 2017 after next releases
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
After our next releases and improving our homepage we'd like to graduate as
a TLP in 2017.
How has the community developed since the last report?
We have increasing feedback of use cases to be covered and also a few
bug reports, so Tamaya is used by developers and companies.
Additionally we are doing regular bi-weekly hangouts and have defined a
well defined roadmap to release and restructure our project.
Apart from that we gathered feedback from JavaOne 2016: official
Configuration JSR proposal and Anatole had a talk there.
The conflicts that arose in the past seem to be solved as some of the
mentors and early committers have left the project. Since we've
established our hangouts we have the feeling of beeing more connect and
able to work towards a common goal.
How has the project developed since the last report?
Apart from the main project we established new repositories to hold
extensions and sandbox modules. In order to get rid of the problematic
webpage generation we decided to start from scratch.
In addition to making the API more smooth, we try to keep the base
repository/project as lean as possible and prepare a next release.
Due to various technical issues (infrastructure behaves differently from
local builds and checkouts) we did not meet our deadline on getting a
release out by the end of October.

Toree has been incubating since 2015-12-02.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Make a release: The community is working on RC from 0.1.x branch. Master
has moved to start support for Spark 2.0. Currently working on RC3.
2. Grow a diverse community: We should put some emphasis on growing the
community and making it diverse (the rule is at least three independent
contributors) In progress. Project elected new PPMC member.
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware
of?
NONE, previous issue with LGPL dependency has been RESOLVED as the JeroMQ
dependency has now been released as MPL license.
How has the community developed since the last report?
1. Active communication in mailing list and gitter with early adopters
2. No worries about transitioning from old Spark Kernel code.
3. More external contributions being made. Mainly focused on master to
stabilize Spark 2.0 support

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. Continued releases, and updated dependencies
2. Grow up user and contributor communities, seeing more contribution/PR
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 are still targeting the development of the user community. For that, we
discussed about improving and polishing the website. Today, it's obvious
that it's not easy to understand what Unomi can do and actually does. The
purpose is to give more use cases and introduction on the mailing list.
Some small improvements have been performed in that way.
How has the project developed since the last report?
The second Apache Unomi 1.1.0-incubating has been released.
We updated key dependencies and provided new features in
addition of the bug fixes. We also fixed the LGPL issue in the binary
distribution.
The Unomi rules and conditions engine has been improved as well.

Re: [DRAFT] Incubator PMC Board Report - November 2016
Posted by "John D. Ament" <jo...@apache.org>.
All,
Below is the current draft of the board report. We still have many
podlings who are missing mentor sign off. Mentors for DataFu, CMDA,
Fineract and Hivemall please review and sign off. Otherwise end of day
tomorrow the reports will be pulled and podlings put on monthly/extended by
1 month.
John
Incubator PMC report for November 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 currently 63 podlings incubating - no change from last month.
The Geode podling has begun discussions around graduation. There were two
new IPMC members added this past month. The IPMC approved 17 releases this
month as well.
* Community

Guacamole
Guacamole is an enterprise-grade, protocol-agnostic, remote desktop gateway.
Combined with cloud hosting, Guacamole provides an excellent alternative to
traditional desktops. Guacamole aims to make cloud-hosted desktop access
preferable to traditional, local access.
Guacamole has been incubating since 2016-02-10.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. **Making the first Guacamole release under the Apache Incubator**
2. Encouraging community participation and contribution
3. Accepting additional committers
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
It is clear that the continuing lack of a release is a major obstacle to
community development, especially given outstanding pull requests which
cannot be merged due to pre-release code freeze.
We believe that the source and documentation are finally up-to-date with
respect to Apache and the Incubator, and that we are ready to move forward
with the procedures surrounding the release. Any assistance in navigating
our first release would be greatly appreciated.
How has the community developed since the last report?
Community participation has remained roughly the same as last report.
Mailing
list participation is active but unchanged. Since last report, we have
received an additional 3 pull requests, and have engaged the contributors
for
code review. Code looks good, and response to feedback has been
professional,
but merge is blocked until we can get the first release out of the way.
How has the project developed since the last report?
All outstanding issues which were aimed at the project's first release
(0.9.10-incubating) have been completed, as have all bugs discovered
during
testing. We have made preparatory changes to the project website with the
release in mind.
The project's old SourceForge forums have finally been closed, replaced by
the mailing lists. The forums have been left in read-only mode for the
sake
of reference, with a stickied announcement notifying users of the move.
Date of last release:
2015-12-18 (0.9.9, prior to Apache Incubator)

perform the release in detail. We scrubbed our code using the RAT tool
for copyright notices not compliant with the ASF rules. We wrote
guidelines for contributors on how to become a committer and added a
new committer. All developer documentation has now moved to the
Apache-hosted wiki.

Slider
Slider is a collection of tools and technologies to package, deploy, and
manage long running applications on Apache Hadoop YARN clusters.
Slider has been incubating since 2014-04-29.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Apache Slider community/PPMC has voted to move portions of Slider into
Apache Hadoop YARN as modules. It is possible that the remaining pieces
will be moved at a later point in time or become obsolete or evolve to
work closely with YARN. Slider PPMC will decide what makes the most
sense as we progress through this exciting time.
2. Getting more external users
3. Growth of a diverse set of developers/committers/PMC members is also
crucial towards the final state of Slider
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
No.
How has the community developed since the last report?
The Apache Hadoop YARN community/PMC and Apache Slider community/PPMC
had decided to move portions of Slider into YARN, to make fast and
significant
progress on: YARN-4692 - [Umbrella] Simplified and first-class support for
services in YARN. As a result, the Slider Core module (including Application
Master, Client and Java unit tests) has been rolled into an Apache Hadoop
YARN feature branch as a hadoop-yarn-slider-core module.
This effort is being captured in: YARN-5079 : Native YARN framework layer
for services. All the migrations are happening in a branch (namely
yarn-native-services) created of off Hadoop trunk. As a result of this,
we are already seeing interest in the Hadoop committers/PMC, who have
started to contribute and submit patches to Slider.
In order to support existing users of Slider, and to provide seamless
migration, there will be sufficient overlap between the time when a stable
state of long running services support is available in some future version
of YARN and the time till an independent Slider release is available. The
community/PPMC will also determine the future state of Slider as we
navigate through these changes.
The discussions on the Slider and YARN community DLs can be viewed here -
https://s.apache.org/0hoh
https://s.apache.org/MncV
For the benefit of those who would like to use Slider Core from the
Hadoop codebase, but continue to use classic Slider Agent and legacy
app-packages, a new branch (yarn-native-services) has been created
in classic Slider repo. This branch retains only the Agent (python) code
and the App Packages. It adds Slider Core module as a Hadoop
dependency. This allows users to consume the latest of Slider Core.
Future classic Slider releases can be made purely off of this branch.
Additionally an effort is being made to create an agent-less provider for
legacy app-packages, which could help users to completely migrate to
Hadoop codebase for creating long-running services with Slider. Expectation
from app-package owners would be to make minor modification of their
packages. Primary changes would be to shed the dependency on python
Agent code, effectively making packages much simpler than what they
look like today in classic Slider.
How has the project developed since the last report?
There has been fewer bug fixes on the classic Slider side as most of
the focus has been on developing features on native YARN services in
the Hadoop codebase. Work continues on support for complex services
(assemblies) and agent-less applications in Slider. The efforts on Slider
Core will continue in the new services branch created in YARN. Few
key features which were merged to classic Slider as well were -
SLIDER-875 - Ability to create an Uber application package with
capability to deploy and manage as a single business app, and
SLIDER-1107 - Generate app configuration files in AM. Several issues
identified by Coverity scans were resolved as well. Additionally few
patches were contributed by the community fixing functional and
performance issues. Slider community plans to ship a release in the
next quarter with all these features and bug fixes.

Spot
Apache Spot is a solution stack that provides the capability to ingest
network related telemetry (network flows, domain name service information
and
proxy server logs) and provide unsupervised machine learning capabilities to
identify suspicious activity. The information is organized and presented
using operational analytics so that a security analyst can investigate the
most suspicious connections. Apache Spot is built on an open data model
using
Apache Spark and Apache Hadoop.
Spot has been incubating since 2016-09-23.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
- Move infrastructure and development to ASF (code, issues, mailing list,
…)
- Build diverse community
- Demonstrate ability to create releases
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware
of?
We currently have a hard dependency via our LDA implementation that
requires a GPL license. A rewrite is in progress to move the code from
LDA-C to Spark LDA.
How has the community developed since the last report?
This is first report after accepting Apache Spot to incubator and we still
have not transitioned everything to ASF. We do however see increased
interest in the project, primarily on our Slack channel.

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.
- Continue to produce releases.
- Increase the diversity of our project's contributors and committers.
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?
Our mailing list from August through October had 375 messages on a wide
range

Tamaya
Tamaya is a highly flexible configuration solution based on an modular,
extensible and injectable key/value based design, which should provide a
minimal but extendible modern and functional API leveraging SE, ME and EE
environments.
Tamaya has been incubating since 2014-11-14.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Extend Community
2. Improve Documentation and release base components
3. Graduate als TLP in 2017 after next releases
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
After our next releases and improving our homepage we'd like to graduate as
a TLP in 2017.
How has the community developed since the last report?
We have increasing feedback of use cases to be covered and also a few
bug reports, so Tamaya is used by developers and companies.
Additionally we are doing regular bi-weekly hangouts and have defined a
well defined roadmap to release and restructure our project.
Apart from that we gathered feedback from JavaOne 2016: official
Configuration JSR proposal and Anatole had a talk there.
The conflicts that arose in the past seem to be solved as some of the
mentors and early committers have left the project. Since we've
established our hangouts we have the feeling of beeing more connect and
able to work towards a common goal.
How has the project developed since the last report?
Apart from the main project we established new repositories to hold
extensions and sandbox modules. In order to get rid of the problematic
webpage generation we decided to start from scratch.
In addition to making the API more smooth, we try to keep the base
repository/project as lean as possible and prepare a next release.
Due to various technical issues (infrastructure behaves differently from
local builds and checkouts) we did not meet our deadline on getting a
release out by the end of October.

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. Continued releases, and updated dependencies
2. Grow up user and contributor communities, seeing more contribution/PR
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 are still targeting the development of the user community. For that, we
discussed about improving and polishing the website. Today, it's obvious
that it's not easy to understand what Unomi can do and actually does. The
purpose is to give more use cases and introduction on the mailing list.
Some small improvements have been performed in that way.
How has the project developed since the last report?
The second Apache Unomi 1.1.0-incubating has been released.
We updated key dependencies and provided new features in
addition of the bug fixes. We also fixed the LGPL issue in the binary
distribution.
The Unomi rules and conditions engine has been improved as well.

Re: [DRAFT] Incubator PMC Board Report - November 2016
Posted by "John D. Ament" <jo...@apache.org>.
All,
Below is the current draft of the board report. We still have many
podlings who are missing mentor sign off. Mentors for DataFu, CMDA,
Fineract and Hivemall please review and sign off. Otherwise end of day
tomorrow the reports will be pulled and podlings put on monthly/extended by
1 month.

Guacamole
Guacamole is an enterprise-grade, protocol-agnostic, remote desktop gateway.
Combined with cloud hosting, Guacamole provides an excellent alternative to
traditional desktops. Guacamole aims to make cloud-hosted desktop access
preferable to traditional, local access.
Guacamole has been incubating since 2016-02-10.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. **Making the first Guacamole release under the Apache Incubator**
2. Encouraging community participation and contribution
3. Accepting additional committers
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
It is clear that the continuing lack of a release is a major obstacle to
community development, especially given outstanding pull requests which
cannot be merged due to pre-release code freeze.
We believe that the source and documentation are finally up-to-date with
respect to Apache and the Incubator, and that we are ready to move forward
with the procedures surrounding the release. Any assistance in navigating
our first release would be greatly appreciated.
How has the community developed since the last report?
Community participation has remained roughly the same as last report.
Mailing
list participation is active but unchanged. Since last report, we have
received an additional 3 pull requests, and have engaged the contributors
for
code review. Code looks good, and response to feedback has been
professional,
but merge is blocked until we can get the first release out of the way.
How has the project developed since the last report?
All outstanding issues which were aimed at the project's first release
(0.9.10-incubating) have been completed, as have all bugs discovered
during
testing. We have made preparatory changes to the project website with the
release in mind.
The project's old SourceForge forums have finally been closed, replaced by
the mailing lists. The forums have been left in read-only mode for the
sake
of reference, with a stickied announcement notifying users of the move.
Date of last release:
2015-12-18 (0.9.9, prior to Apache Incubator)
When were the last committers or PMC members elected?
The most recent committer, Frode Langelo, was accepted into the
project by VOTE on 2016-04-03, with the required ICLA received on

2. Transition of user documentation to Apache hosting
3. Migration of pre-commit continuous integration testing to
publicly-available infrastructure
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
No
How has the community developed since the last report?
Our last report was in August. Since then, we have five new
contributors who have authored patches, while two relatively recent
contributors who were active before August have continued their
involvement by authoring new patches. Traffic to our developer mailing
list has grown by about 60%.
How has the project developed since the last report?
There have been 241 commits since the last report.
Our status website now has 16 of the 17 listed work items complete. We
had our first Apache release and have a wiki page describing how to
perform the release in detail. We scrubbed our code using the RAT tool
for copyright notices not compliant with the ASF rules. We wrote
guidelines for contributors on how to become a committer and added a
new committer. All developer documentation has now moved to the
Apache-hosted wiki.

Slider
Slider is a collection of tools and technologies to package, deploy, and
manage long running applications on Apache Hadoop YARN clusters.
Slider has been incubating since 2014-04-29.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Apache Slider community/PPMC has voted to move portions of Slider into
Apache Hadoop YARN as modules. It is possible that the remaining pieces
will be moved at a later point in time or become obsolete or evolve to
work closely with YARN. Slider PPMC will decide what makes the most
sense as we progress through this exciting time.
2. Getting more external users
3. Growth of a diverse set of developers/committers/PMC members is also
crucial towards the final state of Slider
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
No.
How has the community developed since the last report?
The Apache Hadoop YARN community/PMC and Apache Slider community/PPMC
had decided to move portions of Slider into YARN, to make fast and
significant
progress on: YARN-4692 - [Umbrella] Simplified and first-class support for
services in YARN. As a result, the Slider Core module (including Application
Master, Client and Java unit tests) has been rolled into an Apache Hadoop
YARN feature branch as a hadoop-yarn-slider-core module.
This effort is being captured in: YARN-5079 : Native YARN framework layer
for services. All the migrations are happening in a branch (namely
yarn-native-services) created of off Hadoop trunk. As a result of this,
we are already seeing interest in the Hadoop committers/PMC, who have
started to contribute and submit patches to Slider.
In order to support existing users of Slider, and to provide seamless
migration, there will be sufficient overlap between the time when a stable
state of long running services support is available in some future version
of YARN and the time till an independent Slider release is available. The
community/PPMC will also determine the future state of Slider as we
navigate through these changes.
The discussions on the Slider and YARN community DLs can be viewed here -
https://s.apache.org/0hoh
https://s.apache.org/MncV
For the benefit of those who would like to use Slider Core from the
Hadoop codebase, but continue to use classic Slider Agent and legacy
app-packages, a new branch (yarn-native-services) has been created
in classic Slider repo. This branch retains only the Agent (python) code
and the App Packages. It adds Slider Core module as a Hadoop
dependency. This allows users to consume the latest of Slider Core.
Future classic Slider releases can be made purely off of this branch.
Additionally an effort is being made to create an agent-less provider for
legacy app-packages, which could help users to completely migrate to
Hadoop codebase for creating long-running services with Slider. Expectation
from app-package owners would be to make minor modification of their
packages. Primary changes would be to shed the dependency on python
Agent code, effectively making packages much simpler than what they
look like today in classic Slider.
How has the project developed since the last report?
There has been fewer bug fixes on the classic Slider side as most of
the focus has been on developing features on native YARN services in
the Hadoop codebase. Work continues on support for complex services
(assemblies) and agent-less applications in Slider. The efforts on Slider
Core will continue in the new services branch created in YARN. Few
key features which were merged to classic Slider as well were -
SLIDER-875 - Ability to create an Uber application package with
capability to deploy and manage as a single business app, and
SLIDER-1107 - Generate app configuration files in AM. Several issues
identified by Coverity scans were resolved as well. Additionally few
patches were contributed by the community fixing functional and
performance issues. Slider community plans to ship a release in the
next quarter with all these features and bug fixes.

Spot
Apache Spot is a solution stack that provides the capability to ingest
network related telemetry (network flows, domain name service information
and
proxy server logs) and provide unsupervised machine learning capabilities to
identify suspicious activity. The information is organized and presented
using operational analytics so that a security analyst can investigate the
most suspicious connections. Apache Spot is built on an open data model
using
Apache Spark and Apache Hadoop.
Spot has been incubating since 2016-09-23.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
- Move infrastructure and development to ASF (code, issues, mailing list,
…)
- Build diverse community
- Demonstrate ability to create releases
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware
of?
We currently have a hard dependency via our LDA implementation that
requires a GPL license. A rewrite is in progress to move the code from
LDA-C to Spark LDA.
How has the community developed since the last report?
This is first report after accepting Apache Spot to incubator and we still
have not transitioned everything to ASF. We do however see increased
interest in the project, primarily on our Slack channel.

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.
- Continue to produce releases.
- Increase the diversity of our project's contributors and committers.
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?

Tamaya
Tamaya is a highly flexible configuration solution based on an modular,
extensible and injectable key/value based design, which should provide a
minimal but extendible modern and functional API leveraging SE, ME and EE
environments.
Tamaya has been incubating since 2014-11-14.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Extend Community
2. Improve Documentation and release base components
3. Graduate als TLP in 2017 after next releases
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
After our next releases and improving our homepage we'd like to graduate as
a TLP in 2017.
How has the community developed since the last report?
We have increasing feedback of use cases to be covered and also a few
bug reports, so Tamaya is used by developers and companies.
Additionally we are doing regular bi-weekly hangouts and have defined a
well defined roadmap to release and restructure our project.
Apart from that we gathered feedback from JavaOne 2016: official
Configuration JSR proposal and Anatole had a talk there.
The conflicts that arose in the past seem to be solved as some of the
mentors and early committers have left the project. Since we've
established our hangouts we have the feeling of beeing more connect and
able to work towards a common goal.
How has the project developed since the last report?
Apart from the main project we established new repositories to hold
extensions and sandbox modules. In order to get rid of the problematic
webpage generation we decided to start from scratch.
In addition to making the API more smooth, we try to keep the base
repository/project as lean as possible and prepare a next release.
Due to various technical issues (infrastructure behaves differently from
local builds and checkouts) we did not meet our deadline on getting a
release out by the end of October.

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. Continued releases, and updated dependencies
2. Grow up user and contributor communities, seeing more contribution/PR
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 are still targeting the development of the user community. For that, we
discussed about improving and polishing the website. Today, it's obvious
that it's not easy to understand what Unomi can do and actually does. The
purpose is to give more use cases and introduction on the mailing list.
Some small improvements have been performed in that way.
How has the project developed since the last report?
The second Apache Unomi 1.1.0-incubating has been released.
We updated key dependencies and provided new features in
addition of the bug fixes. We also fixed the LGPL issue in the binary
distribution.
The Unomi rules and conditions engine has been improved as well.

Guacamole
Guacamole is an enterprise-grade, protocol-agnostic, remote desktop gateway.
Combined with cloud hosting, Guacamole provides an excellent alternative to
traditional desktops. Guacamole aims to make cloud-hosted desktop access
preferable to traditional, local access.
Guacamole has been incubating since 2016-02-10.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. **Making the first Guacamole release under the Apache Incubator**
2. Encouraging community participation and contribution
3. Accepting additional committers
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
It is clear that the continuing lack of a release is a major obstacle to
community development, especially given outstanding pull requests which
cannot be merged due to pre-release code freeze.
We believe that the source and documentation are finally up-to-date with
respect to Apache and the Incubator, and that we are ready to move forward
with the procedures surrounding the release. Any assistance in navigating
our first release would be greatly appreciated.
How has the community developed since the last report?
Community participation has remained roughly the same as last report.
Mailing
list participation is active but unchanged. Since last report, we have
received an additional 3 pull requests, and have engaged the contributors
for
code review. Code looks good, and response to feedback has been
professional,
but merge is blocked until we can get the first release out of the way.
How has the project developed since the last report?
All outstanding issues which were aimed at the project's first release
(0.9.10-incubating) have been completed, as have all bugs discovered

Slider
Slider is a collection of tools and technologies to package, deploy, and
manage long running applications on Apache Hadoop YARN clusters.
Slider has been incubating since 2014-04-29.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Apache Slider community/PPMC has voted to move portions of Slider into
Apache Hadoop YARN as modules. It is possible that the remaining pieces
will be moved at a later point in time or become obsolete or evolve to
work closely with YARN. Slider PPMC will decide what makes the most
sense as we progress through this exciting time.
2. Getting more external users
3. Growth of a diverse set of developers/committers/PMC members is also
crucial towards the final state of Slider
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
No.
How has the community developed since the last report?
The Apache Hadoop YARN community/PMC and Apache Slider community/PPMC
had decided to move portions of Slider into YARN, to make fast and
significant
progress on: YARN-4692 - [Umbrella] Simplified and first-class support for
services in YARN. As a result, the Slider Core module (including Application
Master, Client and Java unit tests) has been rolled into an Apache Hadoop
YARN feature branch as a hadoop-yarn-slider-core module.
This effort is being captured in: YARN-5079 : Native YARN framework layer
for services. All the migrations are happening in a branch (namely
yarn-native-services) created of off Hadoop trunk. As a result of this,
we are already seeing interest in the Hadoop committers/PMC, who have
started to contribute and submit patches to Slider.
In order to support existing users of Slider, and to provide seamless
migration, there will be sufficient overlap between the time when a stable
state of long running services support is available in some future version
of YARN and the time till an independent Slider release is available. The
community/PPMC will also determine the future state of Slider as we
navigate through these changes.
The discussions on the Slider and YARN community DLs can be viewed here -
https://s.apache.org/0hoh
https://s.apache.org/MncV
For the benefit of those who would like to use Slider Core from the
Hadoop codebase, but continue to use classic Slider Agent and legacy
app-packages, a new branch (yarn-native-services) has been created
in classic Slider repo. This branch retains only the Agent (python) code
and the App Packages. It adds Slider Core module as a Hadoop
dependency. This allows users to consume the latest of Slider Core.
Future classic Slider releases can be made purely off of this branch.
Additionally an effort is being made to create an agent-less provider for
legacy app-packages, which could help users to completely migrate to
Hadoop codebase for creating long-running services with Slider. Expectation
from app-package owners would be to make minor modification of their
packages. Primary changes would be to shed the dependency on python
Agent code, effectively making packages much simpler than what they
look like today in classic Slider.
How has the project developed since the last report?
There has been fewer bug fixes on the classic Slider side as most of
the focus has been on developing features on native YARN services in
the Hadoop codebase. Work continues on support for complex services
(assemblies) and agent-less applications in Slider. The efforts on Slider
Core will continue in the new services branch created in YARN. Few
key features which were merged to classic Slider as well were -
SLIDER-875 - Ability to create an Uber application package with
capability to deploy and manage as a single business app, and
SLIDER-1107 - Generate app configuration files in AM. Several issues
identified by Coverity scans were resolved as well. Additionally few
patches were contributed by the community fixing functional and
performance issues. Slider community plans to ship a release in the
next quarter with all these features and bug fixes.

Spot
Apache Spot is a solution stack that provides the capability to ingest
network related telemetry (network flows, domain name service information
and
proxy server logs) and provide unsupervised machine learning capabilities to
identify suspicious activity. The information is organized and presented
using operational analytics so that a security analyst can investigate the
most suspicious connections. Apache Spot is built on an open data model
using
Apache Spark and Apache Hadoop.
Spot has been incubating since 2016-09-23.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
- Move infrastructure and development to ASF (code, issues, mailing list,
…)
- Build diverse community
- Demonstrate ability to create releases
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware

We currently have a hard dependency via our LDA implementation that
requires a GPL license. A rewrite is in progress to move the code from
LDA-C to Spark LDA.
How has the community developed since the last report?
This is first report after accepting Apache Spot to incubator and we still
have not transitioned everything to ASF. We do however see increased
interest in the project, primarily on our Slack channel.

Tamaya
Tamaya is a highly flexible configuration solution based on an modular,
extensible and injectable key/value based design, which should provide a
minimal but extendible modern and functional API leveraging SE, ME and EE
environments.
Tamaya has been incubating since 2014-11-14.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Extend Community
2. Improve Documentation and release base components
3. Graduate als TLP in 2017 after next releases
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
After our next releases and improving our homepage we'd like to graduate as
a TLP in 2017.
How has the community developed since the last report?
We have increasing feedback of use cases to be covered and also a few
bug reports, so Tamaya is used by developers and companies.
Additionally we are doing regular bi-weekly hangouts and have defined a
well defined roadmap to release and restructure our project.
Apart from that we gathered feedback from JavaOne 2016: official
Configuration JSR proposal and Anatole had a talk there.
The conflicts that arose in the past seem to be solved as some of the
mentors and early committers have left the project. Since we've
established our hangouts we have the feeling of beeing more connect and
able to work towards a common goal.
How has the project developed since the last report?
Apart from the main project we established new repositories to hold
extensions and sandbox modules. In order to get rid of the problematic
webpage generation we decided to start from scratch.
In addition to making the API more smooth, we try to keep the base
repository/project as lean as possible and prepare a next release.
Due to various technical issues (infrastructure behaves differently from
local builds and checkouts) we did not meet our deadline on getting a
release out by the end of October.

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. Continued releases, and updated dependencies
2. Grow up user and contributor communities, seeing more contribution/PR
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware

We are still targeting the development of the user community. For that, we
discussed about improving and polishing the website. Today, it's obvious
that it's not easy to understand what Unomi can do and actually does. The
purpose is to give more use cases and introduction on the mailing list.
Some small improvements have been performed in that way.
How has the project developed since the last report?
The second Apache Unomi 1.1.0-incubating has been released.
We updated key dependencies and provided new features in
addition of the bug fixes. We also fixed the LGPL issue in the binary

Re: [DRAFT] Incubator PMC Board Report - November 2016
Posted by "John D. Ament" <jo...@gmail.com>.
Ok, the gremlin has been identified - his names "johndament" apparently.
https://wiki.apache.org/incubator/ContributorsGroup?action=diff&rev1=326&rev2=327
Apparently this is the "culling process" that removes bad accounts from the
incubator wiki. It had a mind of its own. If anyone else lost edit
rights, please shoot an email to get readded.

> > For the benefit of those who would like to use Slider Core from the
> > Hadoop codebase, but continue to use classic Slider Agent and legacy
> > app-packages, a new branch (yarn-native-services) has been created
> > in classic Slider repo. This branch retains only the Agent (python) code
> > and the App Packages. It adds Slider Core module as a Hadoop
> > dependency. This allows users to consume the latest of Slider Core.
> > Future classic Slider releases can be made purely off of this branch.
> >
> > Additionally an effort is being made to create an agent-less provider for
> > legacy app-packages, which could help users to completely migrate to
> > Hadoop codebase for creating long-running services with Slider.
> Expectation
> > from app-package owners would be to make minor modification of their

> > Core will continue in the new services branch created in YARN. Few
> > key features which were merged to classic Slider as well were -
> > SLIDER-875 - Ability to create an Uber application package with
> > capability to deploy and manage as a single business app, and
> > SLIDER-1107 - Generate app configuration files in AM. Several issues

> Slider has been incubating since 2014-04-29.
>
> Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
>
> 1. Apache Slider community/PPMC has voted to move portions of Slider into
> Apache Hadoop YARN as modules. It is possible that the remaining
> pieces
> will be moved at a later point in time or become obsolete or evolve to
> work closely with YARN. Slider PPMC will decide what makes the most
> sense as we progress through this exciting time.
> 2. Getting more external users
> 3. Growth of a diverse set of developers/committers/PMC members is also
> crucial towards the final state of Slider
>
> Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
> aware of?
>
> No.
>
> How has the community developed since the last report?
>
> The Apache Hadoop YARN community/PMC and Apache Slider community/PPMC
> had decided to move portions of Slider into YARN, to make fast and
> significant
> progress on: YARN-4692 - [Umbrella] Simplified and first-class support for
> services in YARN. As a result, the Slider Core module (including
> Application
> Master, Client and Java unit tests) has been rolled into an Apache Hadoop
> YARN feature branch as a hadoop-yarn-slider-core module.
> This effort is being captured in: YARN-5079 : Native YARN framework layer
> for services. All the migrations are happening in a branch (namely
> yarn-native-services) created of off Hadoop trunk. As a result of this,
> we are already seeing interest in the Hadoop committers/PMC, who have
> started to contribute and submit patches to Slider.
>
> In order to support existing users of Slider, and to provide seamless
> migration, there will be sufficient overlap between the time when a stable
> state of long running services support is available in some future version
> of YARN and the time till an independent Slider release is available. The
> community/PPMC will also determine the future state of Slider as we
> navigate through these changes.
>
> The discussions on the Slider and YARN community DLs can be viewed here -
>
> https://s.apache.org/0hoh
> https://s.apache.org/MncV
>
> For the benefit of those who would like to use Slider Core from the
> Hadoop codebase, but continue to use classic Slider Agent and legacy
> app-packages, a new branch (yarn-native-services) has been created
> in classic Slider repo. This branch retains only the Agent (python) code
> and the App Packages. It adds Slider Core module as a Hadoop
> dependency. This allows users to consume the latest of Slider Core.
> Future classic Slider releases can be made purely off of this branch.
>
> Additionally an effort is being made to create an agent-less provider for
> legacy app-packages, which could help users to completely migrate to
> Hadoop codebase for creating long-running services with Slider. Expectation
> from app-package owners would be to make minor modification of their
> packages. Primary changes would be to shed the dependency on python
> Agent code, effectively making packages much simpler than what they
> look like today in classic Slider.
>
> How has the project developed since the last report?
>
> There has been fewer bug fixes on the classic Slider side as most of
> the focus has been on developing features on native YARN services in
> the Hadoop codebase. Work continues on support for complex services
> (assemblies) and agent-less applications in Slider. The efforts on Slider
> Core will continue in the new services branch created in YARN. Few
> key features which were merged to classic Slider as well were -
> SLIDER-875 - Ability to create an Uber application package with
> capability to deploy and manage as a single business app, and
> SLIDER-1107 - Generate app configuration files in AM. Several issues
> identified by Coverity scans were resolved as well. Additionally few
> patches were contributed by the community fixing functional and
> performance issues. Slider community plans to ship a release in the
> next quarter with all these features and bug fixes.

> 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.
> - Continue to produce releases.
> - Increase the diversity of our project's contributors and committers.

> NONE.
>
> How has the community developed since the last report?
> Our mailing list from August through October had 375 messages on a wide
> range
> of topics. We have gained 4 new contributors to the main project since
> August
> 1st. Our website has been redesigned with the help of several design
> engineers
> and we have commits from 3 new contributors to the website project. On
> GitHub,
> the project has been starred 417 times and forked 156 times.

> Niketan Pansare gave a talk with the title "Apache SystemML - Declarative
> Machine Learning at Scale" on October 7th in the CS graduate seminar at UC
> Merced. Matthias Boehm gave a talk on "Compressed Linear Algebra for
> Large-
> Scale Machine Learning" at TU Dresden on August 30th. We presented the
> papers
> "Compressed Linear Algebra for Large-Scale Machine Learning" (research
> paper +
> poster) and "SystemML: Declarative Machine Learning on Spark" (industry
> paper)
> at VLDB'16. The "Compressed Linear Algebra for Large-Scale Machine
> Learning"
> paper won the VLDB 2016 Best Paper Award. We gave two 90 minute tutorials
> at the
> BOSS'16 workshop, co-located with VLDB'16, and our paper "SPOOF:
> Sum-Product
> Optimization and Operator Fusion for Large-Scale Machine Learning" has
> been
> accepted at CIDR'17.

> Tamaya
>
> Tamaya is a highly flexible configuration solution based on an modular,
> extensible and injectable key/value based design, which should provide a
> minimal but extendible modern and functional API leveraging SE, ME and EE
> environments.

> Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

> 1. Extend Community
> 2. Improve Documentation and release base components
> 3. Graduate als TLP in 2017 after next releases
>
> Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be

>
> After our next releases and improving our homepage we'd like to graduate as
> a TLP in 2017.
>
>
> How has the community developed since the last report?
>
> We have increasing feedback of use cases to be covered and also a few
> bug reports, so Tamaya is used by developers and companies.
> Additionally we are doing regular bi-weekly hangouts and have defined a
> well defined roadmap to release and restructure our project.
> Apart from that we gathered feedback from JavaOne 2016: official
> Configuration JSR proposal and Anatole had a talk there.
>
> The conflicts that arose in the past seem to be solved as some of the
> mentors and early committers have left the project. Since we've
> established our hangouts we have the feeling of beeing more connect and
> able to work towards a common goal.
>
> How has the project developed since the last report?
>
> Apart from the main project we established new repositories to hold
> extensions and sandbox modules. In order to get rid of the problematic
> webpage generation we decided to start from scratch.
> In addition to making the API more smooth, we try to keep the base
> repository/project as lean as possible and prepare a next release.
> Due to various technical issues (infrastructure behaves differently from
> local builds and checkouts) we did not meet our deadline on getting a
> release out by the end of October.

> 1. Make a release: The community is working on RC from 0.1.x branch.
> Master
> has moved to start support for Spark 2.0. Currently working on RC3.
> 2. Grow a diverse community: We should put some emphasis on growing the
> community and making it diverse (the rule is at least three independent
> contributors) In progress. Project elected new PPMC member.

> How has the community developed since the last report?
>
> 1. Active communication in mailing list and gitter with early adopters
> 2. No worries about transitioning from old Spark Kernel code.
> 3. More external contributions being made. Mainly focused on master to
