DataSketches

DataSketches is an open source, high-performance library of stochastic

streaming algorithms commonly called "sketches" in the data sciences. 
Sketches

are small, stateful programs that process massive data as a stream and can

provide approximate answers, with mathematical guarantees, to 
computationally

difficult queries orders-of-magnitude faster than traditional, exact 
methods.

DataSketches has been incubating since 2019-03-30.

Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

  1. Finish IP Assignments

  2. Code Migration

  3. Perform a Release

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?

  We have the key committers signed up. We are all learning how

  to navigate in the Apache environment and how to find things.

ECharts

ECharts is a charting and data visualization library written in JavaScript.

ECharts has been incubating since 2018-01-18.

Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

  1. Apache domain name should be used for the Website. 
  

echartsjs.com and echarts.baidu.com should redirect to echarts.apache.org. 
 

 Currently they are not redirecting due to slow loading time in China. 
 

 We are working on with a CDN to improve the loading time in China.

  2. Website Analytics information should be accessed by PPMC members.

  We are going to create an Analytics account that can be accessed by PPMC 
  members.

  3. Develop more committers from the community.

  Currently there are some contributors in the community that have contributed

  continously and should be considered as new committers.

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be

aware of?

  We haven't come to a conclusion whether we could use Baidu Tongji in the 
  Website, 
  

which is a product quiet similar to Google Analytics.

  We've consulted John Kinsella <jlkinsel@gmail.com> as our mentor suggested, 
  but got

 no reply. See 
  https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/

efa62d1ace0cc27f7ee4e47df94c346e863b641
9f1d1e3ea6fe32c10@%3Cdev.echarts.apache.org%3E

  My suggestion is to use bothe Baidu Tongji and Google Analytics. The reason 
  is that

  Baitu Tongji has only Chinese UI, while Google Analytics may have the 
  potential of

  losing some data in China since many Google products are not accessible in 
  China.

  If IPMC and ASF Board are OK with it, we will start a vote for the plan.

How has the community developed since the last report?

  We have announced our first new committer from the community.

  More people come to contribute in the community, in the forms of code 
  changes, document

 mending, and so on.

How has the project developed since the last report?

  We released v4.2.1.

Edgent

Apache Edgent is a programming SDK and micro-kernel style runtime

that can be embedded in gateways and small footprint edge devices enabling

local, real-time, analytics on the continuous streams of data coming

from equipment, vehicles, systems, appliances, devices and sensors of

all kinds (for example, Raspberry Pis or smart phones). Working in

conjunction with centralized analytic systems, Apache Edgent provides

efficient and timely analytics across the whole IoT ecosystem: from the

center to the edge.

Edgent has been incubating since 2016-02-29.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

  1. Re-creating a working community

  2. Re-populating the PPMC

  3. Replenishing the group of mentors

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be

aware of?

  For the past months, there has been very few activity in the project

  There have been a hand full of Emails from external peoples in the

  last 3 months but the activity in the project has been solely by me

  (Julian) and Christofer Dutz writing emails without getting any form

  of response from the rest of the committers, PPMCs or mentors

  Julian held a Talk on the conference buildingiot 2019 with very positive

  response and we have an Edgent Meetup on May, 6. Where we hope to see some 
  new faces.

  The main problem we have is that the only active people in the project

  came in Late and are not that firm with the codebase. Currently, we

  have a codebase for which we have a detailed understanding of the build,

  but almost none of the code itself. Furthermore, there has been a lot of

  activity in other projects and generally edge processing has developed

  further in the recent years.

  Thus, there is some discussion going on about the core or the aim of the

 
  project to keep its significance and uniqueness.

How has the community developed since the last report?

  * Total, we have 82 subscribers to our mailing list, an increase of 5
  

since the last report.

  * There has been one questions asked by users and little

  discussions about these issues on the list

  * On April, 4th, Julian Feinauer has Talked about Edgent on the building

  iot 2019

  * On May, 6th, a Edgent Meetup is planned in Frankfurt

How has the project developed since the last report?

  * According to JIRA, 0 new issue were added and none were resolved in

  the last 90 days

How would you assess the podling's maturity?

  After the withdrawal of most of the active committers and PPCM members

  currently a new committer, PPMC and mentor-base has to be built.

  Currently we try to re-gain the focus of edgent to

  Start to rebuild the community and resume development.

I just double checked, but it seems our mentors are not existent

  there had been one or two issues where feedback was explicitly

  asked for, but both the PPMC as well as all mentors remained silent.

  Except Justin mentioning the absence of mentors. Christofer Dutz

  joined as new Mentor and is active in the project.

  The number of active developers is low, we are still working

  to follow up on the recommendation to create a release.

How has the project developed since the last report?

  - A first draft-release is being manually checked for policy compliance. 
  We expect

to be able to raise a thread on general soon to discuss/vote.

  - There has been some discussion how to get the project site in-order, 
  and there's

  a plan for that now (transfer modpagespeed.com to the AFS, duplicate 
  contents to

pagespeed.incubator.apache.org).

  2. Improve/create user guide documentation

  3. Improve committer participation

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?

  Committership has been accepted by a community member. SDAP was presented

  at a Data Science Workshop @ JPL

How has the project developed since the last report?

  SDAP is still working towards its first release. Mentors have provided some

  suggestions that will be taken into consideration for the Java parts of the

  project, but the python release process also needs to be better understood.

  A new tool has been published that helps with reading the output produced

  from the Matchup algorithm.

How would you assess the podling's maturity?

Training

The Training project aims to develop resources which can be used for 
training purposes in various media formats, languages and for various 
Apache and non-Apache target projects.

 

Training has been incubating since 2019-02-21.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

  1. Agree upon underlying technology stack and architecture for training 

  content
  2. Develop first training topic contents

  3. Set up our contribution process

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be

aware of?

  - no critical issues at this point in time

How has the community developed since the last report?

  - The project has been set up recently, so there is an

 initial 
  activation/development towards a community.

  - The dev mailing list is active. The total number of posts in March was 
  160 and in April 140

  - Total number of 

subscribers is 32 (25 in March)

How has the project developed since the last report?

  - The scope of the project deliverables 

and core procedures are still under 
  discussion (e.g. what makes a release?)

  - We have had our first few commits. They were for infrastructure (e.g. 
  website) and repository structure

  - We have been approached by a few more people wanting to donate content 
  and we hope to be able to accept it soon

  - We actually have the first issue for an actual content donation (Apache 
  Way, ZooKeeper and Git) and hope to have it included soon, the first ones 
  will probably be slow while we work on processes and best practices

Tuweni

Apache Tuweni is a set of libraries and other tools to aid development of

blockchain and other decentralised software in Java and other JVM languages.

Apache Tuweni has been incubating since 2019-03-25.

Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

  1. Grow the community;

  2. Have the works of the project comply with legal requirements of the ASF;

  3. Consistently releasing products;

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be

aware of?

  Currently there are no issues that require the involvement of either the

  Incubator PMC

 or the ASF board.

How has the community developed since the last report?

  As this is the first full month of the project incubating the development

  of the community

 has been low.

  The project started out with onboarding all parties showing interest

  at the pre-incubation discussions in general@incubator.a.o.

  The project consists of a healthy number of mentors and committers/PPMC

  Members.

## How has the project developed since the last report?

  All required INFRA services have been put in play to have the community

  collaborate.

  The project is working on getting more body to the whole set of information

  pages

 (website, wiki, etc.)

  The project is working on getting its first release product vetted and

  released, and is also

 working on getting the Incubator clutch details
  up to date.
