## BifroMQ
BifroMQ is a Java-based, high-performance, distributed MQTT broker with native multi-tenancy support, designed for large-scale connections and message delivery.
BifroMQ has been incubating since 2025-04-22.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. Increase public exposure to expand the community user base and improve project visibility.
2. Continue delivering regular releases, streamline the release management process, and rotate the Release Manager role among key contributors.
3. Grow community participation beyond the original contributors, including attracting new reviewers and contributors.
### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
We understand that the trademark transfer has been completed based on publicly available trademark ownership information (e.g. via https://aiqicha.baidu.com/mark/s?q=BIFROMQ&t=7).
However, we would appreciate receiving an official confirmation from ASF (a scanned copy of the signed transfer agreement would be sufficient) so that our company can properly archive the transfer documentation for internal compliance purposes.
### How has the community developed since the last report?
We have observed increasing activity on GitHub and the dev@ mailing list.
Our mentor (Chris) helped initiate a valuable discussion with the Apache IoTDB community, which may lead to potential collaboration between the two projects.
We have set up a WeChat Account (“BifroMQ”) to publish Chinese translations of release announcements. All published content is derived from or links back to the official Apache BifroMQ website, and the account is not used for community discussions.
### How has the project developed since the last report?
We completed our first incubating release after 3 RC votes.

### Is the PPMC managing the podling's brand / trademarks?
Are 3rd parties respecting and correctly using the podlings
name and brand? If not what actions has the PPMC taken to
correct this? Has the VP, Brand approved the project name?
We attempted to rename our WeChat account by adding the “Apache” prefix, based on PPMC consensus reached on the private mailing list. However, the request was rejected by the WeChat platform due to tightened naming policies, which now require an official authorization document from ASF to use “Apache” as an account prefix.
We would appreciate guidance on whether there is a formal ASF process to request such an authorization letter for external platform compliance purposes.

## Caldera
Caldera provides a modular platform for modeling, scripting, and executing
adversary behavior. It allows users to construct emulation plans,
provides agents for communicating with the command and control
server, and enables users to evaluate security detections in a
structured, scalable, and repeatable way. With the use of plug-ins and
community-contributed features, Caldera supports a range of use cases
including adversary emulation, purple teaming, detection
engineering, and continuous security validation. Using Caldera,
defenders can emulate known threat actor behavior and perform other red team
activity to evaluate their organization’s defensive capabilities, test
analytics, and find detection gaps. As a modular tool based on the
MITRE ATT&CK framework, Caldera is designed to be extensible,
intelligence-driven, and automation-friendly.
Caldera has been incubating since 2025-12-19.

### IPMC/Shepherd notes:
--------------------
## OpenServerless
OpenServerless is an open source, cloud-agnostic, serverless platform. It
offers a complete environment for serverless applications development, based
on Kubernetes. With Apache OpenWhisk as its FaaS engine, it
provides an unified developer experience with a plethora of
services (SQL or noSQL databases, key-value stores, object
storage, LLMs services, function schedulers) managed by the platform's core:
the operator, along with tooling (the CLI) to simplify (and
interact with) deployments, integrated ide and starter
application and optimized runtimes integrated with the staters.
OpenServerless has been incubating since 2024-06-17.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. reactivate the build system that was phased out because of expired cloud credits - Nuvolaris provided the resources and we requestes also
2. create a self-contained distribution that builds from sources - already in place a kit to do that creating images in a local docker and the loading into a cluster
3. embed tasks in the cli binary as we cannot distribute something that self-updates from the cloud
### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
we are asking for resources to AWS to test in cloud
### How has the community developed since the last report?
New contributors and more adopters, including cloud providers like the Italian Government Cloud, the Polo Strategico Nazionale and 2 cloud italian
### How has the project developed since the last report?
We are completing the major features like the devcontainer and the embedded registry for custom actions auto-created

Comments: Can we have an update on release ? The podling seems to struggle about growing the community and very low activity on the mailing lists. It would be great to have an update and plan.
- [X] (openserverless) PJ Fanning
Comments: No obvious progress on a 1st release and podling is nearly 2 years old. Mailing list traffic is minimal. Really just GitHub automated msgs. I would disagree with the report's assertion that the podling is nearing graduation.
### IPMC/Shepherd notes:
--------------------
## Otava
Apache Otava (incubating), a command-line tool, written in Python, detects and alerts about statistically significant changes in performance test results (more generally, time-series data) stored in CSV files or a number of supported databases.
A typical use-case of Otava is as follows:
1. A set of performance tests is scheduled repeatedly, such as after each commit is pushed.
2. The resulting metrics of the test runs are stored in a time series database (Graphite) or appended to CSV files.
3. Otava is launched by a Jenkins/Cron job (or an operator) to analyze the recorded metrics regularly.
4. Otava notifies about significant changes in recorded metrics by outputting text reports or sending Slack notifications.
5. Otava is capable of finding even small, but persistent shifts in metric values, despite noise in data. It adapts automatically to the level of noise in data and tries to notify only about persistent, statistically significant changes, be it in the system under test or in the environment.
Otava has been incubating since 2024-11-27. Otava entered Incubation as Hunter.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. Establish frequent releases as a routine, repeatable process
2. Improve documentation to lower the entry barrier for users and contributors.
3. Define and document the desired long-term architecture. The goals of the long-term architecture are:
a. Modularity: Keep the core library lightweight while making external dependencies (data sources and notification channels) pluggable.
b. API stabilization: Clearly define and stabilize public interfaces prior to a 1.0.0 release.
### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
No.
### How has the community developed since the last report?
The community added one new committer and a PMC member, who contributeda a rewrite of the core changepoint detection algorithm and authored an introductory doc on changepoint detection theory in Otava.
Since the last report, there have been 4 additional contributors participated through patches and discussions. One contributor is a developer from RedPanda, who reports using Otava extensively for both continuous benchmarking and finding regressions in PRs. Another contributor developed a visualization tool that allows users to model and explore changepoint detection results across different time series. This tool improves understanding of the algorithm’s behavior and provides a practical aid for internal development and experimentation.
Additionally, open-source projects that position performance as a key feature (e.g., [hardwood](https://github.com/hardwood-hq/hardwood/issues/25)) have expressed interest in using Otava for continuous benchmarking.
### How has the project developed since the last report?
The project addressed 3 out of 4 main previously stated priorities:
1. Upgraded to supported Python versions. Re-implement the core changepoint detection algorithm and drop the dependency on signal-processing-algorithms.
2. Added a new PPMC member.
3. Publicity around the project. Since the last report, Henrik Ingo did a talk about Continuous Performance Engineering at FOSDEM 2026.
The remaining issue is making frequent releases a routine. As a first step, the project added a step-by-step release guide to facilitate repeatable releases.
