Hi Ibrahim,
unfortunately, the "original" Livy team is not very active right now.
I'm on #livy on ASF Slack, it's very convenient to speed up
communication (even if all discussions/decisions should be done on the
mailing list).
Let me know if I can invite you.
Regards
JB

Ok, great!
No, I’m not on the ASF slack. Is the a better way of communicating with the
Livy team?

Hi Ibrahim,
Yes, I think Livy is almost OK about graduation.
Let's sync together about release plan and next steps.
Are you on ASF Slack ?

Thank you JB for the maturity matrix example.
It doesn't look like much work with Livy being out there with multiple
releases already available and a build process in place.
I'll be happy to volunteer as well, if needed, to have the next release
moving forward.
In the next week or so, I do need to have a build that works with Spark
3.x, so I guess I'll start looking at the build process and I believe
there
is a pull request for such support.
Cheers,
Ibrahim

Hi Ibrahim
the maturity matrix is a document listing the topics required for
graduation.
For instance, you can see the one I did for CarbonData:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CARBONDATA/Apache+Maturity+Model+Assessment+for+CarbonData
I agree with the release, and it's what I already proposed (I'm also
volunteer to deal with the release, and review the PR).

Totally agree with you, and I'll be happy to help to move this project
forward if I can.
I'm not sure what will be in the maturity matrix to allow a project to
graduate, but I do believe that we need the next release (v0.8 ?) soon
and
it might give the community an idea about the feature set available and
what's missing if any. On my side, there are a couple of pull requests
that
I'm interested in for sure.
Cheers,
Ibrahim

Hi Ibrahim
I discussed with some users, and IMHO, the podling is mature but the
community still needs to be expanded.
So, IMHO, the project should move forward towards graduation (it's
what
I proposed on the podling report this month).
Unfortunately, the activity is "low" on the mailing list, so, we
should:
1. prepare some communication actions (and a new release)
2. prepare the maturity matrix to identify the gaps to graduation
3. discuss about graduation and next steps

Hello Bikas et al.
I saw this thread (below) back in June but I haven't seen any update
on
the
issue since. The project is important to one of my clients and I'd
like
to
see it graduating and being supported moving forward.
Best regards,
Ibrahim

Subject: Graduate or retire
Hi all,
Apache Livy is a successful project that has met many of its initial
design
goals to provide interactive access to spark jobs. It appears to be
widely
used by many organizations and users. However, project development
has
been
inactive due to lack of demand for new features and relative
stability
of
the code base.
At this point there are 2 options for the project given its
incubating
status
1. Graduate - The project has been following the Apache way in
its
release process and community. It can graduate as long as there are 3
pmc
willing to continue to manage the project. Also, volunteers are
needed
to
complete the graduation checklist and help move the project through
the
graduation process.
* https://incubator.apache.org/guides/graduation.html
2. Retire - The project will be retired and no longer be
supported by
the ASF development process. Its website will be deleted and
generally
new
releases would not be available. The biggest drawback of this for the
user
community is that security patches like the recent CVE release in Feb
21
will not be made available. That can be a blocker for many
organizations.
* https://incubator.apache.org/guides/retirement.html
What does the community think about this situation and how to
proceed?
Should we graduate or retire?
When supporting graduation, please indicate willingness to drive the
graduation process and subsequently participate in the project pmc.
Bikas
