Hi, I’ve not posted the draft incubator report to this list the last couple of times I created it and that’s been amiss of me.
There is still a large number of outstanding podling reports so please get those in. Here’s my current draft text of the front part of the report. Does anyone have anything to add or any suggested corrections? Incubator PMC report for September 2018 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 presently 53 podlings incubating. During the month of August, podlings executed 8 distinct releases and there are several ongoing votes on releases for September. Some long standing release votes were resolved. We added three new IPMC members. Serval podlings are heading towards graduation. We had one project, Gossip, retire to the attic. There were no IP clearances. A number of podlings (X) that didn't report has decreased and Pony Mail has finally reported. Discussion continues about with to do about missing mentors and some actions should be taken in the next month including contacting mentors and asking if they still want to continue in the role. This may result in a number of mentors needed to be replaced, and currently it is not known what mentor capacity the IPMC has. We've had a number of members join the IPMC to mentor projects this month which is encouraging. Given the low levels of activity on some projects (as indicated by sign off rates and a sampling of email list activity) this is a serious issue for the IPMC. There's also been discussion on some podlings spending too long in incubation and hopefully that will lead to a few more graduations and retirements in the near future. Changes have been suggested to the podling report and incubator proposal template that should help in small ways with the above situations. A podling, Superset, has been making releases not in line with the Apache release policy. I've asked the podling to correct this and it's mentors to help out. The podling has been almost 2 years in incubation and has made a large number of "unofficial" releases (50+). * Community New IPMC members: - Andriy Redko - Christofer Dutz - William Colen People who left the IPMC: None * New Podlings - Zipkin - DLab - Marvin-AI (being voted on) * Podlings that failed to report, expected next month TODO * Graduations None this month. * Releases The following releases entered distribution during the month of August: - ServiceComb Chassis 1.0.0 - ServiceComb Service-Centre 1.0.0 - Pulsar 2.1.0 - Echarts 4.1.0 - Toree 0.2.0 - Openwhisk CLI 0.9.0 - Airflow 1.10.0 - Unomi 1.3.0 * IP Clearance None * Legal / Trademarks No issues or discussions. * Infrastructure No issues. * Miscellaneous Gossip podling was retired.
