Incubator PMC/Board report for October 2011 (kafka-dev@incubator.apache.org)
Dear Kafka Developers,
This email was sent by an automated system on behalf of the Apache Incubator PMC.
It is an initial reminder to give you plenty of time to prepare your quarterly
board report.
The board meeting is scheduled for Wed, 19 October 2011, 10 am Pacific. The report
for your podling will form a part of the Incubator PMC report. The Incubator PMC
requires your report to be submitted one week before the board meeting, to allow
sufficient time for review.
Please submit your report with sufficient time to allow the incubator PMC, and
subsequently board members to review and digest. Again, the very latest you
should submit your report is one week prior to the board meeting.
Thanks,
The Apache Incubator PMC
Submitting your Report
----------------------
Your report should contain the following:
* Your project name
* A brief description of your project, which assumes no knowledge of the project
or necessarily of its field
* A list of the three most important issues to address in the move towards
graduation.
* Any issues that the Incubator PMC or ASF Board might wish/need to be aware of
* How has the community developed since the last report
* How has the project developed since the last report.
This should be appended to the Incubator Wiki page at:
http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/October2011
Note: This manually populated. You may need to wait a little before this page is
created from a template.
Mentors
-------
Mentors should review reports for their project(s) and sign them off on the
Incubator wiki page. Signing off reports shows that you are following the
project - projects that are not signed may raise alarms for the Incubator PMC.

Sorry for the delay. Just added October's report. Text is attached below.
# Kafka
(introduced to Apache incubator on Jul 4, 2011)
Kafka provides an extremely high throughput distributed
publish/subscribe messaging system. Additionally, it supports
relatively long term persistence of messages to support a wide variety
of consumers, partitioning of the message stream across servers and
consumers, and functionality for loading data into Apache Hadoop for
offline, batch processing.
A list of the most important issues to address in the move towards graduation
1. Successful podling release.
2. Invite diverse new active committers
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware of?
Not at this time.
How has the community developed since the last report?
We are getting very close to release the very first version of Kafka
in Apache. A couple of RCs have been proposed and we are still fixing
various license header issues reported by rat.
The proposed RC fixed more than 40 issues. The main feature added in
the RC is end-to-end compression support.
How has the project developed since the last report?
Activities in the mailing list remain high. Several patches from
non-committers have been submitted, reviewed and committed.

Alan, can we still report and get signoff today. Or is the 12th
deadline a hard one?
