Fluss has been incubating since 2025-06-04. ### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating: 1. The second release (v0.9.0) under the ASF incubator 2. Grow the community and attract more committers, contributors and users. 3. Fill out the maturity model ### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of? None at this time. ### How has the community developed since the last report? 1. Add 2 new committers, currently with total 17 committers. 2. The Fluss PPMC created a [LinkedIn page](https://s.apache.org/fluss-linkedin), which now has 1,302 followers, doubling organically over the past three months. 3. [Regular Monthly Community Call](s.apache.org/fluss-community-call) for October and November; December’s call was skipped due to the holiday season. 4. An “Apache Fluss × Apache Iceberg” joint webinar is scheduled for January 20, 2026, featuring contributors from both communities. 5. Community presentations and outreach: * Jark Wu and Giannis Polyzos presented at Flink Forward Barcelona (2025-10-15) * Leonard Xu presented Fluss at QCon Shanghai (2025-10-24) * Giannis Polyzos spoke at Big Data Europe (2025-11-19) * Jark Wu presented to the CMU Database Group (2025-12-08) release voting, graduation discussions, and follow-ups on reporting and potential retirement, along with updates to Incubator training materials. Two new navigation paths for the Incubator Training site were introduced: browsing by theme and browsing by topic, making it easier to locate relevant material. A search page for Incubator training resources was also added to improve discoverability across the training content. Burr, Fluss and Geaflow were invited to take part in their six-month reviews and all accepted. Several new Incubator Field Guides were published. These provide practical, experience-based advice for mentors, PPMCs and IPMC members. The guides were created by reviewing and analysing real Incubator mailing list discussions from the past five years, documenting governance in action and how the Incubator has handled recurring issues, with limited AI assistance to identify patterns. Topics added include community governance, community proposals, edge cases, graduation identity, graduation readiness, graduation votes, incubation readiness, initial committer selection, licensing and provenance, naming and branding, naming and trademarks, proposal discussions, release announcements, release review issues, releases and release votes. A discussion took place regarding how podlings may establish official WeChat channels, along with broader guidance on the responsible use of chat and instant messaging platforms within incubation. A new guide on the use of emerging technologies was added, focusing on applying ASF values rather than creating new policy, preserving human accountability and highlighting privacy and licensing risks. The experimental podling health reports are being adopted and are showing measurable improvements in the quality and consistency of podling reporting. OpenServerless has begun discussion of its first release. Most podlings continue to make steady progress toward graduation. Livy continues graduation discussions, and Toree completed a release this month and plans to begin graduation discussions after the vote concludes. HugeGraph voted to graduate. A graduation discussion for Gluten uncovered several third-party branding issues, which the podling is addressing. ResilientDB and Polaris are likely to graduate soon. Baremaps is likely to retire. Pegasus is experiencing significant community attrition, with many core members having left, which has slowed development and is currently blocking both graduation discussions and release progress. The podling is working to encourage new contributors and plans to elect additional committers and PPMC members during 2026 to help revitalise the community. Fesod attempted its first incubating release (2.0.0-RC1) in late December, which surfaced a number of ASF compliance issues. The podling is addressing those issues and plans to begin a new release vote (2.0.0-RC2) shortly. One podling, PonyMail, failed to submit a report and will be asked to report next month. All submitted podling reports had mentors` sign-off. ## Community ### New IPMC members: ### People who left the IPMC: ## New Podlings ## Podlings that failed to report, expected next month ## Graduations - None The board has motions for the following: - HugeGraph ## Releases The following releases entered distribution during the month of December: - Iggy 0.6.0 ## IP Clearance - None ## Legal / Trademarks - N/A ## Infrastructure - N/A ## Table of Contents [Amoro](#amoro) [Fesod](#fesod) [Fluss](#fluss) [Gluten](#gluten) [HugeGraph](#hugegraph) [Livy](#livy) [Pegasus](#pegasus) [ResilientDB](#resilientdb) [GeaFlow](#geaflow) -------------------- ## Amoro Amoro is a Lakehouse management system built on open data lake formats like Apache Iceberg and Apache Paimon.
