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 36 podlings incubating. In May, podlings executed 8
distinct releases. We added three new IPMC members, added one new podling
ShenYu, and one podling Weex retired.
There were no IP clearances in May. There are two new podlings under active
discussion, and no podlings graduated last month. This month there were no
misisng reports which is nice to see. Livy is discussing retirement.
Podlings cleaned up a few more podling release areas.
A podling needed to be reminded that 3 +1 PMC votes are required, and it's
a good idea to wait 72 hours before calling a release vote.
There was some discussion on making Helm releases and how that can work and
comply with ASF policies.
TubeMQ continued working on renaming itself to InLong.
The Incubator track for ApacheCon has been organised with two days of talks
on various subject split into two groups on the Incubator (releases and
mentoring) and Incubating projects.
As usual, most discussions on the mailing list were around releases, new
project proposals, new mentors, and we also found out that Minecraft wasn't
working.

1. Decision to graduate or retire
2.
3.
### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
The project is stable and being used for its desired purpose by a many
organizations and users.
Without any pressing need for new features there is no active development
happening.
If the project retires then its unclear how users would be able to get
security fixes like the one that got release in Feb 21.
Seeking the boards guidance on this situation.

### IPMC/Shepherd notes:
Justin Mclean: I'm not sure why that question is directed at the board
and I'm not sure they could answer it. IMO It would depend on if the
project continues development or not outside of Apache and how that group
of people handle security.

## Spot
Apache Spot is a platform for network telemetry built on an open data model
and Apache Hadoop.
Spot has been incubating since 2016-09-23.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. Revive community activity (Discussion in mailing lists, increase
frequency of commits)
2. Create a new roadmap and release plan that will improve adoption
3. Make it easier to contribute to the project (e.g. documentation,
framework).
### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
There is confusing communication with the organization. We submitted our
quarterly
report last month. The final report from last month noted that our
report was not
accepted because it was not signed off. However, we read the minutes
from the Board
that said all submitted reports were accepted, so we assumed we didn't
need to worry
about a report for another quarter. Last night at midnight we were
notified for the
first time that our report was due the same day. With less than 24 hours
notice, it
seems unlikely we'll be able to get sign-off from our mentor.
### How has the community developed since the last report?
We're continuing to solidify a short term and long term on a roadmap with
the community
that will allow more contributors to focus and work on different levels
of the project
(i.e. data modeling and schema design, use-cases, ingestion, ml, ui, dev
ops, docs, etc).
These discussions have been delayed this quarter due to COVID and getting
schedules aligned
relative to other workloads.
### How has the project developed since the last report?
The master branch of Apache Spot was largely developed for commercial but
freely
available Hadoop software (i.e. Cloudera, Hortonworks) that now have been
either
End of Life’d (or will be in 2022) in favor of the newer Cloudera Data
Platform
(CDP), or have been put behind a paywall to get updates. The cloud
provider
landscape has also changed drastically in the last few years and it's
time that
we start looking at better support for Quickstart options in each major
cloud
providers so we can further develop the project for the community with
wider
platform support, and give committers better options for creating
development
environments to more efficiently contribute to the project.
The following topics are planned for the next set of discussions with the
community
to determine what we focus on for the next several quarters:
* Add more native support on cloud infrastructure and software (i.e. AWS,
Azure, GCP)
* In the short-term we can focus on AWS EMR on standing up Spot and
fixing any issues
related to getting the software installed and working.
* In the long term we will want to support several cloud providers and
on-premise
options depending on the interest of the community.
* Add an infrastructure module to Spot to automate creating clusters in
each providers
we plan to support.
* Initially we can focus on Cloudformation support with AWS EMR.
* Our goal will be to generalize further in the long term with
Terraform across each provider.
* Investigate and explore alternative replacement for Spot UI (i.e.
Apache Supersets)
* In the short-term Apache Supersets may give us a basic authentication
and visualization
layer into the data landed and processed by Spot.
* In the long-term we will need to develop a more comprehensive
security and use-case
roadmap for the UI and determine if it makes sense to develop
something from scratch.
The next step will be to create Jira Epic’s and tasks for these items so
we can start to distribute the work across the community.

### IPMC/Shepherd notes:
Justin Mclean: The board signed off the incubator report but it can still
have reportsnot signed off by mentor. In your case it looks liked the
sign off come in late after the Incubator report was submitted, so sorry
for asking you to report again. Best to try and submit the report and have
it signed off by the due date if possible. Reminders are sent
to the incubator general list and you mentor(s) should be watching for
those. I would suggest you ask for another mentor so that you are not
dependant on just one person.

## StreamPipes
StreamPipes is a self-service (Industrial) IoT toolbox to enable non-
technical users to connect, analyze and explore (Industrial) IoT data
streams.
StreamPipes has been incubating since 2019-11-11.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. Grow the community
2. Make more releases
3. Complete Maturity assessment
### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
There are no issues right now.
### How has the community developed since the last report?
* In general, there was a little less activity on the mailing list during
the last reporting period, but a more diverse set of contributors has
actively participated in discussions.
* We had several pull requests from new contributors
* We had several proposed projects and applicants for Google Summer of
Code proposed by various PPMC members, but unfortunately, no projects were
selected
* 1 new PPMC member and 1 new committer elected (see below)
* Number of Twitter followers has increased (last report: 171, currently:
188)
* Number of Github stars increased (last report: 205, currently: 234)
### How has the project developed since the last report?
* Release 0.68.0 is delayed and still in the pipeline, but will hopefully
be finished this month
* We put large effort into fixing several bugs that affected the
stability of StreamPipes, e.g., auto restart of pipelines
* Several UI improvements (pipeline preview, improvements to the live
dashboard,
and many more) will be part of the next release which are intended to
attract more users
* Some new community members have added new pipeline elements to
StreamPipes
* Another major improvement are refactored SQL-based data sinks to the
extensions project

We are actively managing the brand and did not discover any issues
related to incorrect brand use.
Next step related to brand management is to incorporate the new logo into
the website and application.

### IPMC/Shepherd notes:
--------------------
## Wayang
Wayang is a cross-platform data processing system that aims at decoupling
the business logic of data analytics applications from concrete data
processing platforms, such as Apache Flink or Apache Spark. Hence, it tames
the complexity that arises from the "Cambrian explosion" of novel data
processing platforms that we currently witness.
Wayang has been incubating since 2020-12-16.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. Educate the new PPMCs to be able to do Apache releases
2. Do our first Apache release
3. Grow the community
### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
Until the moment of this report it was created and didn't have any issue,
because all the important issues got solved.
### How has the community developed since the last report?
The community members are in the applying process to present in a few
conferences to show Apache Wayang to the Processing Platform Community and
other communities that could be interested in the project.
Also, different members of the community had meetings with possible
contributors, however, nothing is concrete until the writing point of the
report.
Additional to that the community is searching for more developers that
can be part of it.
### How has the project developed since the last report?
The main focus is the first release. The team is focusing on cleaning the
code, refactoring some parts and preparing the documentation. However, it
is taking more time than the estimated one, but the community members are
pushing to have it done as soon as possible.
