# Incubator PMC report for February 2020

The Apache Incubator is the entry path into the ASF for projects and
codebases wishing to become part of the Foundation's efforts.

This monthly report is in markdown so that it's easier to read. If you are 
not viewing this in that format, it can be seen here: 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/INCUBATOR/February2020
There are presently 46 podlings incubating. In January, podlings executed
11 X distinct releases. We added three new IPMC members and sixteen IPMC 
members retired. There was two requested IP clearance, one hashad an issue, 
and the problem with last months IP clearance has been resolved.
We have one new podling this month YuniKorn; another is under discussion 
AgensGraph. No projects graduated last month. Myriad has retired, and 
both Tamaya and isTaverna are considering leaving the Incubator. At least 
one podling is heading towards graduation in the next few months.

ItTwo waspodlings noticeddid thatnot areport dozenand ofwill sobe podlingsasked wereto misisngreport multipleagain PPMC members next month;
they include PageSpeed and Taverna. This is the second time Taverna has
failed to report and looking on their list they are discussing retiring
from the Incubator. PageSpeed reached out to say they will report next
month.

It was noticed that a dozen of so podlings were missing multiple PPMC 
members signed up to their private mailing lists. Each podling was 
contacted, and just about all of them have corrected this. Three podlings 
MXNet, SDAP and Spot are still working on it.

Several IPMC members are not signed up to the IPMC private list and may not 
be providing the oversight needed by their role. A board proposal has been 
put forward to remove them from the IPMC.

These IPMC members have been emailed twice in the last month asking them to 
sign up. About 30% of the people identified have responded, and have signed 
up or asked to no longer be IPMC members. Most of them are ASF members, so 
even if they were removed, they could ask to join again.

A dozen inactive mentors were contacted offlist and asked if they want to 
continue in the role, several have responded they wish to step down, and a 
couple have done so. 

The IPMC roster was also cleaned up with the removal of several people who 
had previously stood down or passed away.

TubeMQ is no longer having issues bootstrapping, but needed guidance with
their report.

We were contacted by a researcher from the University of California to sign 
a letter of support for a project to study incubating projects. While the 
Incubator is supportive of research like this, some concerns were raised 
about the scope of the letter, and it was not signed.

### IPMC/Shepherd notes:



--------------------
## DataSketches

DataSketches is an open source, high-performance library of stochastic
streaming algorithms commonly called "sketches" in the data sciences.
Sketches are small, stateful programs that process massive data as a stream
and can provide approximate answers, with mathematical guarantees, to
computationally difficult queries orders-of-magnitude faster than
traditional, exact methods.

DataSketches has been incubating since 2019-03-30.

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

  1. Be more communicative and document our code changes more clearly.
  2. We need to have more substantive discussions on dev@ especially about our growing 
     TODO list and how we plan to address them -- create a roadmap as a guide for 
     others to contribute.
  3. Find / Attract new code committers outside Yahoo!

### 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?
  We are presenting at more conferences which has attracted some interest.
  We are definitely getting more traffic on our forum, GitHub issues
  and email lists.  We recently added two channels on the-asf@slack: #datasketches 
  and #datasketches-dev. The traffic has been fairly low on Slack as well as
  the forum. We could do more to publicize the slack channels.  I could be 
  optimistic and believe the low traffic is due to the holidays -- or that the
  code just works :)  
  
  Nonetheless, the download traffic measured by repository.a.o 
  has grown exponentially since our first Apache release on Sep 23. We are over 1000 
  unique IPs/ month and had a recent high of 22K downloads/ month.  Bear in mind
  that this is all traffic that has migrated from the older, pre-Apache artifacts 
  at com.yahoo.datasketches and is already higher than our peak downloads prior to 
  Apache. These numbers also do not reflect any downloads of our Zip artifacts 
  from a.o./dist (which includes our C++ artifacts) or other external download 
  repositories (for example, specific to PostgreSQL).

### How has the project developed since the last report?
  Our releases are becoming easier, more polished and routine.
  Nonetheless, our website needs a lot of work (as mentioned above) and this will 
  become our focus for the next month or so. 

### How would you assess the podling's maturity?
Please feel free to add your own commentary.

## Doris

Doris is a MPP-based interactive SQL data warehousing for reporting and
analysis.

Doris has been incubating since 2018-07-18.

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

  1. Continue to build our community. It is glad to see that more developers joined us and became contributors. But we still need more leading developers to join the community who can participate in the discussion of Doris' road map, not just start-up members.
  2. Improve the documents and website as well. Currently, most of documents are in Chinese and most of English docs are translated by machine. We are working on it.
  3. The discussion on dev mail list is still very few. Most of discussion and decisions are still make in private or in GitHub issues. We should improve the utilization of mailing lists and discuss more public.

### 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?

Since the last report, we have added 21 contributors and 1 committer. There are currently 79 contributors and 15 committers.

More and more companies are considering choosing Doris as their solution, and more people are contributing to Doris. In the past three months, the number of contributors has increased from 58 to the current 79.

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

The community is working hard to improve the usability and functionality of the product so that more people can use Doris more easily to solve their problems. During this time, a total of 336 commits were merged and 333 issues were created.

Our new storage engine refactoring is almost coming to an end. After this work, some exciting features can be added, such as secondary index, etc.

## ECharts

ECharts is a charting and data visualization library written in JavaScript.

ECharts has been incubating since 2018-01-18.

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

  1. Status page ( https://incubator.apache.org/projects/echarts.html ) has not been updated and we are going to do this within a month.
  2. Official Website: We have redirected echarts.baidu.com to echartsjs.com and put a banner in echartsjs.com stating that the official Website is echarts.apache.org but we still need to come to a conclusion about whether CDN still has a problem with the access in China. If so, we should probably make echartsjs.com as a mirror site with a clear specification about the main site. If not, we should redirect echartsjs.com to echarts.apache.org.
  3. Currently the collaborator of [echarts npm package](https://www.npmjs.com/package/echarts) is ecomfe and we should move it to echarts.

### 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?
More people from the community become contributors, either in the form of answering questions in the issues, fixing the document or making pull requests with the code. We did more public introduction about the community and welcome others to contribute and it did show some positive effects recently.

### How has the project developed since the last report?
The monthly release became quite on time recently and in each release, we have several pull requests from the community.

### How would you assess the podling's maturity?

## Heron

A real-time, distributed, fault-tolerant stream processing engine.

Heron has been incubating since 2017-06-23.

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

  1. Fixing issues with licensing in the repo. [mostly done]
  2. Improving the amount of community discussion on the dev@ mailing list.
  3. n/adue to holiday disruptions and has 
  been
  slow to make its first ASF release. The release machinery is all in place 
  as of
  this month, and voting for the first release candidate should begin within 
  the week.

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

  The PPMC has been more actively communicating and plans to open up a weekly 
  call to more directly engage early users.

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

  The release machinery is in place, with Apache Rat being used to verify that
  licenses are in order. The PPMC is resolved to release the current state of 
  the project and generate momentum from there.

### How would you assess the podling's maturity?

  Mentors have been very helpful so far. They will be engaged around the 
  initial release, to help ensure that everything is in order.

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

  All the proper incubation disclaimers should be in the repository and on the
  website. The project is aware of no incidents of misuse of brand or 
  trademark.

  and more people are contributing to Doris. In the past three months, the 
  number of contributors has increased from 58 to the current 79.

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

  The community is working hard to improve the usability and functionality 
  of the product so that more people can use Doris more easily to solve their 
  problems. During this time, a total of 336 commits were merged and 333 
  issues were created.

  Our new storage engine refactoring is almost coming to an end. After this 
  work, some exciting features can be added, such as secondary index, etc.

## ECharts

ECharts is a charting and data visualization library written in JavaScript.

ECharts has been incubating since 2018-01-18.

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

  1. Status page ( https://incubator.apache.org/projects/echarts.html ) has 
  not been updated and we are going to do this within a month.
  2. Official Website: We have redirected echarts.baidu.com to 
  echartsjs.com and put a banner in echartsjs.com stating that the official 
  Website is echarts.apache.org but we still need to come to a conclusion 
  about whether CDN still has a problem with the access in China. If so, we 
  should probably make echartsjs.com as a mirror site with a clear 
  specification about the main site. If not, we should redirect 
  echartsjs.com to echarts.apache.org.
  3. Currently the collaborator of [echarts npm 
  package](https://www.npmjs.com/package/echarts) is ecomfe and we should 
  move it to echarts.

  In the last month, our focus was on setting up some structures that help growing 
  the community:

  * Further people appeared on the mailing list expressing their interest to 
  develop StreamPipes components
  * We added issues in Jira that are targeted at new developers 
  (marked with a newbie tag)
  * We migrated the previously internal Wiki to Confluence and added developer 
  information to lower the entry barrier to contribute
  * Blog post on how to run StreamPipes on a Raspberry Pi, we now plan to publish 
  blog posts at regular intervals
  * Contact to sensor producer, and first integrations with their sensors, which 
  should help growing the ecosystem
  * Meeting with a manufacturing company to present StreamPipes and talk about 
  cooperation possibilities
  * We started to plan ApacheCon talks (also a joint talk together with Apache PLC4X)
  * The number of Twitter followers has increased (currently at 103)
  * The number of Github stars has increased (currently at 109)

### How has the project developed since the last report?
  * Successfully migrated complete development cycle to new GitHub and Docker 
  Hub repositories
  * Optimized containers to run on ARM architectures

  * We are currently preparing a new logo 
  * Currently, no issues are known related to brand misuse, but there are
  still some open issues concerning the transition to the ASF infrastructure
  (e.g., shutting down the old streampipes organization on Github to avoid confusion)
  * We've started to research best-practices related to brand management 
  (other ASF projects) and intend to add a section in the Confluence Wiki on 
  brand management.

## 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:

  1. Promote the information about Apache Training Project with increased 
     participation from community
  2. Create a tutorial on how the tools provided by this project can be used
 to 
   used to create own content
  3. Review current policies around contribution review and releases to find 
     find a pragmatic compromise 

### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
  - There currently is a lack of involvement by the PPMC in the project 
  which caused 
stagnation in mailing list participation and overall
  project progress.
  The PPMC is currently taking steps to address this by focusing on 
  promoting new 
committers and being more involved again. 
  - The current review and release process seems to be overly complex and 
  scary and
 hampers contributions. Discussions around relaxing this are
  ongoing.


### How has the community developed since the last report?
  Activity on the dev list has declined since the last report, total number 
  of posts 
was November 37, December 13, January (to be updated) 84.

### How has the project developed since the last report?
  - We have refactored the Maven structure to make adding new projects much 
  easier
 by using an archetype, this should help make the project more
  accessible to 
a lot of people.
  - ApacheCon themed templates are under development that will be available 
  for speakers
 at future conferences
  - An introductory Hadoop slide deck was contributed and is currently 
  undergoing 
review.

### 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.

### 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.

  We are seeing a few contributions in the bug reports and pull
  requests offered on the repository. The project is starting to gain good 
  traction.

### How has the project developed since the last report?
  The project has released a new maintenance release (0.10.0). 
  It is now working now on its next major release, moving to support Java 
  11+.

  Releasing is less and less of a daunting task now - with some automation 
  and
 documentation, one can issue a release without fear of missing bits 
  anymore.

  The podling is building its community. As part of this board report, 
  we moved to using Confluence to draft the report together before 
  submitting it.

  We also drafted a set of stories and use cases as a roadmap 
  with the goal of using this to also build the community:
