## 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 unfinished issues to address before graduating:

  Improve the community participation (other Apache projects should 
actively be linked to this project, since they "have the content")
  (Re)define the short-, mid-, and long-term goals of the project.
  Select an approach to handle non coding / non document related tasks 
(e.g., community related activities on events)
  Create a strategy how this projects contributes to or is supported by 
other Apache projects
  Create a tutorial on how the tools provided by this project can be used 
to create own content
  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.

  In order to improve this collaboration we suggest to investigate the 
status of other project’s documentation in a systematic approach, 
especially with an eye on available training related material.

visibility of the project and its goals.

  Besides requests for contributions from individual contributors from 
other Apache projects we want to show what the Apache Training project can 
offer to those projects.

  We should build on the assumption that synergy and network effects can 
help us to increase the community around training and skill management 
topics.

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

  Some new training material has been provided, for details, please look at 
the project repo commit comments.

  PR activity continuous on a low level since the last report.

  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 of the project’s structure: Goals and strategy needs 
refinement.
  Working towards first release: What type of artifacts to release is not 
clear, due to unclear goals and strategy.
  Community building: The community exists of a very small number of people 
but is more or less invisible, as of today (April 2023).
  Nearing graduation: Currently, we are far away from graduation.

### When were the last committers or PPMC members elected?

  November 2020

### Have your mentors been helpful and responsive?

  Mentors have been responsive and helpful when reached out to.

### Is the PPMC managing the podling's brand / trademarks?

  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.

## OpenDAL

Open Data Access Layer: Access data freely, painlessly, and efficiently.

OpenDAL has been incubating since 2023-02-27.

### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

  1. Grow the community (attracting more committers, contributors, users)   
  2. Publish Apache releases (resolving logistics on Apache release)   
  3. Improve project structure and documentation

### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?

  None

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

  OpenDAL has now been adopted by llama-hub to provide support for cloud 
object storage services. Additionally, we have noticed that a command-line 
tool called dilu has been using OpenDAL. We are also planning to provide 
webhdfs support for object store in the near future.

  In the past month, we have had close to 20 new contributors and elected 
two new committers.

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

  - Core: We are now pushing for support for copy/rename.
  - Cli: The implementation of the oli command-line tool is still ongoing, 
and we support configuration files and some common operations such as `ls` 
and `cat`.
  - Bindings: We now have a basic Ruby binding implementation, and further 
improvements have been made to Python and Node.js bindings.

## Pekko

Pekko is a toolkit and an ecosystem for building highly concurrent,
distributed, reactive and resilient applications for Java and Scala.

Pekko has been incubating since 2022-10-24.

### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:  

  1. Complete the work on updating the file headers and docs to reflect the 
new branding and licensing.  
  2. Get the core web site and documentation up.
  3. Get a milestone release done - at least for the core modules. This 
would facilitate the wider OSS community. We would hope that other OSS 
projects that currently support Akka would look to also support Apache 
Pekko.  

### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?  
  Nothing of note

### How has the community developed since the last report?  
  We recently added a new committer (Arnout Engelen).

### How has the project developed since the last report?  
  Some reasonable progress with getting the code migrated.

availability for software products
