Added SystemML podling report

  
  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
+ runtime plans ranging from single node, in-memory computations, to
- computations such as Apache Hadoop MapReduce and Apache Spark.
+ 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:
  
-   1.
-   2.
-   3.
+   - 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.

+   Our mailing list from February through April had 199 messages involving
+   topics such as algorithms, DML functionality, usability, and bug fixes. In
+   addition, we have had many discussions on our JIRA site and in pull request
+   conversations. Fred Reiss presented at Spark Summit East on February 17 about
+   SystemML internals. Berthold Reinwald spoke at the Spark Technology Center on
+   March 9 about scalable machine learning with SystemML. Niketan Pansare spoke
+   on April 28 at Datapalooza in Austin and on April 29 at Rice University about
+   declarative machine learning at scale with SystemML. Researchers in Germany
+   are working to add Flink as an additional SystemML backend. On GitHub, the
+   project has been starred 267 times and forked 92 times.

- Date of last release:
+   We produced our first Apache release, version 0.9.0-incubating. Numerous
+   additions have been made to the project, including core functionality,
+   usability improvements, and documentation. The project has had 204 commits
+   since February 1. In the same time frame, 155 new issues have been reported
+   on our JIRA site and 77 issues have been resolved. 114 pull requests opened
+   since Febrary 1 have been closed. We are preparing to produce our second
+   incubator release.
