>>>>>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. Project web site must be setup (ongoing).
>>>>>  2. Establish a collaboration model within the community and ensure a
>>>>>     common view on the main focus points.
>>>>>  3. Improve code base for being ready for a first release around Q1
>>>>>2015.
>>>>>
>>>>>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?
>>>>>  Many of the committers have successfully filed the ICLA and also
>>>>>started
>>>>>  to contribute, some of them already by doing first patches. Feedback in
>>>>>  the community was overwhelming. We could also successfully place the
>>>>>  topic at conferences as well as in the German Java Magazin and other
>>>>>  events. Also interest of people during the Zurich Hackergarten in
>>>>>  November was great and will definitely lead to additional committers
>>>>>  early 2015.
>>>>>
>>>>>How has the project developed since the last report?
>>>>>  The project setup is going quite well. Initial committers are
>>>>>onboarding,
>>>>>  the initial code donation was successfully moved and other preconditions
>>>>>  like the project name, IP clearance, Jenkins etc. were successfully
>>>>>done.
>>>>>  Thanks to INFRA for their incredible support!

>>>>>Taverna has been incubating since 2014-10-20.
>>>>>
>>>>>Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
>>>>>
>>>>>  1. IP clearance to be signed by Univ of Manchester
>>>>>  2. Move source code, wiki, issues to apache.org. Restructure git repos.
>>>>>  3. Invite contributors who volunteered at October workshop
>>>>>
>>>>>Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be

>>>>>  Infrastructure bootstrapping takes a long time and requires a series of
>>>>>  requests. E.g. Taverna incubator has been approved, but does not get a
>>>>>  web-site without explicitly asking for it. Documentation for apache.org
>>>>>  infrastructure assumes you are already a long-term committer.
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>>How has the community developed since the last report?
>>>>>
>>>>>  Transition of mailing list succcessful (? - can we get some numbers?).
>>>>>
>>>>>  Most of the proposed initial committers have sorted CLAs

>>>>>  and received apache.org account - see
>>>>>  https://people.apache.org/committers-by-project.html#taverna
>>>>>
>>>>>  Many of the remaining initial committers have not been active in the
>>>>>  recent years. We're following up these (and others) through private
>>>>>  conversations. There's been some confusion with regards to the term
>>>>>  "committer" - some were scared and thought it meant they had to make
>>>>>  a committment to work on the source code!
>>>>>
>>>>>  Not much further development - worried that dev@taverna are scared away
>>>>>  by the long-dragged bootstrapping which dominates the list.
>>>>>
>>>>>How has the project developed since the last report?
>>>>>
>>>>>  Source code is being restructured at
>>>>>https://github.com/taverna-incubator
>>>>>  before being staged to import into git.apache.org
>>>>>
>>>>>  Normal development continues at https://github.com/taverna/ - due to
>>>>>  prepare the final 2.5.1 non-Apache release.
>>>>>
>>>>>  Stian Soiland-Reyes was at ApacheCon in Budapest, fruitful discussions
>>>>>  with mentor Andy Seaborne and Gavin McDonald from INFRA with regards to
>>>>>  the transitioning of Taverna's existing source code repository, wiki and
>>>>>  issue tracker (luckily git->git, confluence->confluence and jira->jira).
>>>>>
>>>>>Date of last release:

>>>>>  No release since incubation.
