There are presently 37 podlings incubating. In April, podlings executed 4 distinct releases. We added 5 new IPMC members, and none retired. There was two IP clearance in April, and there was one new podling ShenYu, and another is under active discussion. No podlings graduated last month. This month we were missing reports from Livy, Pinot, and Weex. Livy has missed five reports in a row, a roll call was taken for Livy, and two PMC members responded. The IPMC will discuss retiring the project. A vote is in progress to retire Weex. Currently, Sedona and Spot reports do not have signoff by mentors and will also be asked to report next month. MXNet has new outstanding trademark and branding issues. In a review of a release of Doris, the IPMC found several serious trademark and branding issues. The PMC is working on them, but it looks like the current trademark owner wants to continue using the name, which means they're likely to confuse users and risk Doris graduating. In a review of a Liminal release, a dependency on an LGPL library chardet was found. It turns out this is a common dependency and will impact several TLPs, including Apache Airflow. The community is working out the best way to get this dependency relicensed (which seems unlikely), replaced with something else or making it optional. Good progress has been made, working with 3rd parties. An external project interviewed several IPMC members as part of a study to see what makes projects successful. The Incubator track for ApacheCon is being organised. Further cleanup was done in removing old releases from current podlings. Still to sort out their releases areas are Crail, Livy, MXNet, Nemo and Pinot. Some old outstanding JIRAs were cleaned up, and there was a discussion on fixing up retired podling websites. As usual, most discussions on the mailing list were around releases, new project proposals and selecting good names for podlings and finding new mentors. ## Community ### New IPMC members: - Atri Sharma - Jincheng Sun - Lidong Dai - Yu Li - Zhenxu Ke ### People who left the IPMC: - None ## New Podlings - ShenYu ## Podlings that failed to report, expected next month - Livy - Pinot - Weex ## Graduations - None The board has motions for the following: - None ## Releases The following releases entered distribution during the month of April: - Flagon Useralejs 2.1.1 - Hop 0.70 - Pinot 0.7.1 - Yunikorn 0.10.0 ## IP Clearance - tika-helm - Ballista ## Legal / Trademarks Note that legal policy has been clarified and made clear that: - Jars containing compiled code cannot be include in source releases - Category b code in any form cannot be include in source releases ## Infrastructure - None ## Miscellaneous - None ## Table of Contents [Annotator](#annotator) [Doris](#doris) [Heron](#heron) [Milagro](#milagro) [NLPCraft](#nlpcraft) [PageSpeed](#pagespeed) [SDAP](#sdap) [Sedona](#sedona) [Spot](#spot) [Toree](#toree) [Training](#training) [Tuweni](#tuweni) -------------------- ## DorisAnnotator DorisAnnotator isprovides aannotation MPP-basedenabling interactivecode SQLfor databrowsers, warehousing for reporting servers, and analysishumans.

With Livy, new applications can be built on top of Apache Spark that require fine grained interaction with many Spark contexts. Livy has been incubating since 2017-06-05. ### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating: 1. 2. 3. ### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of? ### How has the community developed since the last report? ### How has the project developed since the last report? IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of? Community building has been very slow and it has been a long time since the project added new committers or PPMC members. After a period of relative inactivity and a conversion of the codebase to TypeScript, the project is long overdue for a second release. The IPMC should expect to see the project vote on a second release before the next board report to demonstrate forward momentum. ### How has the community developed since the last report? There have been some one-off contributions to project documentation and questions raised by people evaluating the project for use, but there have not been sustained contributions or involvement from new folks yet. ### How has the project developed since the last report? The project is now making continuous development packages to make it easier for developers to test upcoming releases. There is now tooling in place for generating API documentation, with plans to integrate the generated documentation into the website. The existing interfaces have all been documented. These efforts are all focused around the current goal of building community by making it easier for developers to become familiar with the project. ### How would you assess the podling's maturity?

Yes. Mentors have been as available when needed, but the project will reach out to get advice on what else could be done to make the project more accessible to new contributors and to grow the community. ### Is the PPMC managing the podling's brand / trademarks?

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? Not at this time ### 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 on 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). 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 shortlong-term Apachewe Supersetswill mayneed giveto usdevelop a more basiccomprehensive security authentication and visualizationuse-case layerroadmap intofor the UI and datadetermine landedif andit makes sense to develop processedsomething byfrom Spotscratch. The next step - In the long-termwill be to create Jira Epic’s and tasks for these items so we willcan needstart 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. ### How would you assess the podling's maturity?

Training has been incubating since 2019-02-21. ### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating: 1. Improve the participation from community for Apache Training Project 2. Create a tutorial on how the tools provided by this project can be used to create own content 3. Review current policies around contribution review and releases to find a pragmatic compromise ### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of? The Training Project needs more contribution from other Apache Projects. It also needs feedback from other Apache Projects on the presentations and trainings developed till now. ### How has the community developed since the last report? Activity has remained low since the last report. There were 8 posts in last 3 months. We have to work on strategies to increase the queries for contributions from individual contributors. ### How has the project developed since the last report? New training slides were added on following topics: * Apache Airflow PR activity is less since the last report. ### How would you assess the podling's maturity? There are currently some issues with this podling that we are working to address, we believe that the issues are not yet critical and can be turned around from within the community but want to make the board aware of this early on. - [ ] Initial setup - [ ] Working towards first release - [X] Community building - [ ] Nearing graduation - [ ] Other: ### When were the last committers or PPMC members elected?

The name search process has not yet been started, as there is still time to do that if and when graduation draws nearer. The PPMC is actively monitoring usage of the Podlings current name on other sites. The Podling is not directly affiliating with any sponsors donating content and presenting an independent image on the webpage. ### Signed-off-by: - [X] (training) Craig Russell Comments: We may need more outreach to PMCs to ask them to add material. - [X] (training) Christofer Dutz Comments: - [X] (training) Justin Mclean Comments: - [X] (training) Lars Francke Comments: ### IPMC/Shepherd notes: -------------------- ## Tuweni Tuweni is a set of libraries and other tools to aid development of blockchain and other decentralized software in Java and other JVM languages.
