# Incubator PMC report for August 2020 The Apache Incubator is the entry path into the ASF for projects and codebases wishing to become part of the Foundation's efforts. TODOThe add narrative ## Community ### New IPMC members: ### People who left the IPMC: ## New Podlings ## Podlings that failed to report, expected next month ## Graduations - list podling here The board has motions for the following: - Your podling here? ## Releases The following releases entered distribution during the month of July: ## IP Clearance ## Legal / Trademarks ### Update on license and branding issues with releases and distributions in MXNet The PPMC continues to make progress in resolving license and branding issues. During the a recent release vote on 1.7.0, with the help from Justin, a few more source distribution and branding issues were found. Here is the status on the issues, tracked in INCUBATOR-253. As of now, the PPMC resolved 12 issues, with 11 still left. Most of the outstanding issues hinge on one key outstanding question, which is whether the components in MXNet that are produced by CUDA NVCC constitutes Category X code. PPMC member employed by Nvidia helped connect Nvidia's representatives including Michael O'Connor, Director of Deep Learning, who have been supportive in the efforts of clarification. Progress is tracked in LEGAL-516. MXNet 1.7.0 release vote was put on hold for addressing the branding issues in third-party releases and for an IP clearance process. So far, PPMC members from Intel (Tao), Nvidia (Dick), and Amazon (Leonard, Henri, Qing, Sheng) have acted to help resolve the issues. #### Status 1. Source and convenance binary releases containing Category X licensed code. (pending) - Source code releases do not contain Category X code, no issue. - Takedown of binary releases on repository.apache.org is on hold, pending resolution on LEGAL-516. - PyPI releases are considered to be third-party and are discussed in the branding/trademark section. 2. Website giving access to downloads of non released/unapproved code. (resolved) - Website contained links to nightly development builds which have been removed [5]; 3. Website giving access to releases containing Category X licensed code. (resolved) - Website contained links to third-party distributions incorporating Category X components (see summary from license review above). Disclaimers were added to the website clarifying the third-party status of the releases and their licenses. [5] 4. Web site doesn't given enough warning to users of the issues with non-(P)PMC releases or making it clear that these are not ASF releases. (resolved) - Website contained links to third-party distributions incorporating Category X components (see summary from license review above). Disclaimers were added to the website clarifying the third-party status of the releases and their licenses. [5] 5. Maven releases containing Category X licensed code. (pending) - Takedown of binary releases on repository.apache.org initiated [6]. The scope depends on the resolution of LEGAL-516. 6. PyPI releases containing Category X licensed code. (pending) - There are no PyPI releases by the PPMC. Whether the releases are compliant with branding guidelines depend on the resolution of LEGAL-516. 7. Docker releases containing Category X licensed code. (pending) - There are no Docker releases by the PPMC. Whether the releases are compliant with branding guidelines depend on the resolution of LEGAL-516. 8. Docker releases containing unreleased/unapproved code. (resolved) - There are no Docker releases by the PPMC. The PPMC verified that all releases are based on unmodified commits in MXNet, which is approved from brand management [3]. 9. Trademark and branding issues with PyPI and Docker releases. (pending) - There are no PyPI or Docker releases by the PPMC. In addition, as they all contain binary from unmodified MXNet code, the whether they are compliant in branding now solely depends on whether they contain Category X licensed code. Refer to item 6, 7, 8. 10. Trademark and brand issues with naming of releases. (pending) - There are no binary releases by the PPMC besides the repository.apache.org releases in item 5. 11. Developer releases available to users and public searchable https://repo.mxnet.io / https://dist.mxnet.io (resolved) - Links to the nightly development builds were removed from the MXNet website and a robot.txt file was added to prevent indexing of the sites. These websites are removed from Google search index. 12. Releases and other nightly builds on https://repo.mxnet.io / https://dist.mxnet.io containing Category X licensed code (pending) - Neither of the two site contains releases. Whether the binaries there contain Category X components depends on the resolution of LEGAL-516. 13. Lack of clarity on all platforms for what is an ASF release and what is not. (resolved) - https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/releases?after=1.2.0 previously did not distinguish MXNet releases prior to MXNet joining the Incubator. Disclaimers were added. Other PPMC platforms do not contain references to non-ASF releases (MXNet releases made prior to MXNet joining the ASF). The PPMC is aware of old third-party releases created prior to MXNet joining the ASF which are still available, but can be clearly separated from the ASF MXNet releases due to the lack of reference to the Apache foundation. PPMC was able to find an exemplar such release at [7]. If there are concerns from the Incubator, PPMC can request the third-parties to take down these releases, as editing their Description to include references to events (MXNet joining Apache) is not supported due to immutability constraints. [8] 14. to 23. Branding and release of 3rd parties containing unreleased code. (pending) Known pages with issues: - https://docs.nvidia.com/deeplearning/frameworks/mxnet-release-notes/rel_20-03.html (item 14, pending) - PPMC reached out to Nvidia. Pending action from Nvidia on branding compliance and replying on whether unreleased code was included. - https://sourceforge.net/projects/apache-mxnet.mirror/ (item 15, pending) - PPMC reached out to SourceForge. SourceForge added (incubating) in name. - The mirror is automatic, which happens to contain MXNet release candidate in voting which is an artifact of MXNet's release process [9] - PPMC granted SourceForge's request for more time for engineering to filter out non-release tags. In any case, after completion of release process, the RC will be automatically removed. - DJL related links. - The following constitutes nominative use of MXNet and is approved by brand management committee [10]: - https://repo.gradle.org/gradle/simple/repo/ai/djl/mxnet/mxnet-native-mkl/1.7.0-b/ (item 16, resolved) - https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/ai.djl.mxnet (item 17, resolved) - https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/?O=0&SeB=nd&K=mxnet&SB=v&SO=d&PP=50&do_Search=Go (item 18, resolved) - https://djl.ai (item 19, resolved) - the DJL project have updated their language with regards to Apache MXNet [11] - AWS Marketplace related links - https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/NVIDIA-MXNet-by-NVIDIA/B07KLFW54D (item 20, resolved) - Per request from PPMC, NVIDIA removed this listing. - https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-yex2xx5kgdhea?qid=1595741035764&sr=0-1&ref_=srh_res_product_title (item 21, resolved) - Per request from PPMC, Intel removed this listing. - https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/B07YW8HVLD?qid=1595741035764&sr=0-4&ref_=srh_res_product_title (item 22, pending) - PPMC reached out to AWS through internal channel to try to establish contact with the listing owner. - https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/search/results?x=0&y=0&searchTerms=%22MXNet (item 23, pending) - PPMC reached out to AWS through internal channel to try to establish contact with the listing owner. #### Background on MXNet License and Trademark Issue Discovery (also in last board podling report, attached for completeness) In May 2020 The MXNet PPMC has proactively initiated a ASF policy compliance review [1] and a license review [2] with the Apache Legal team. The license review uncovered that - Building unmodified MXNet release source code with the optional Nvidia GPU support enabled may result in a binary subject to restrictions of Nvidia EULA (clarification in progress in LEGAL-516). - Some of the convenience releases that the PPMC members and committers uploaded to repository.apache.org contain potential Category X components. The policy review uncovered that: - Prior ASF guidance to the PPMC (December 2018 legal review [3]) was incomplete and did not include a reference to the "unwritten" rule that convenience binary distributions created by third-parties using ASF Trademarks must not include Category X components. Based on this discovery, the Draft Downstream Distribution Branding Policy was updated in June 2020 to include the "unwritten" requirement. Based on the updated guidance, PPMC discovered various third-party branding guideline incompliances. The policy review did not yet conclude on the questions if - The PPMC may create nightly development builds (audience restricted to dev list subscribers as per Release policy [4]) for the purpose of testing and developing MXNet; #### Background on Nvidia CUDA EULA components by third-parties (also in last board podling report, attached for completeness) PPMC members note that the issue of "Nvidia CUDA EULA infecting any application built with CUDA support" is an industry-wide problem. PPMC is not aware of any individual or corporation correctly labeling their binary distributions subject to the Nvidia CUDA EULA. Instead, PPMC found that for example Facebook claims distribution of PyTorch under BSD License (BSD-3) and Google claims distribution of Tensorflow under Apache 2.0 License, despite both being subject to the CUDA EULA. Thus, PPMC has contacted Nvidia Corporation and requested Nvidia Corporation to add clarifying language that applications based on the CUDA SDK with material additional functionality may be licensed under a license of the application owner's choice, consistent with existing industry "practice". The issue was also discussed with Nvidia and other Deep Learning Framework implementers during the Nvidia Deep Learning Framework Developer Council meeting, during which Nvidia promised to conclude their internal review and follow-up with the PPMC. PPMC thus recommends to give Nvidia the chance to clarify and improve their license. As Nvidia employs a team for working on MXNet, the PPMC is optimistic about receiving a detailed clarification and resolution from Nvidia. If Nvidia fails to clarify their license or the resolution is unsatisfactory within Q3 2020, the PPMC intends to notify any third-parties about their license infringement and ask them to take down or rename their redistributions as containing Category X pieces. #### Reference links [1]: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-515 [2]: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-516 [3]: https://s.apache.org/flvug [4]: http://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html#publication [5]: https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/commit/b6b40878f0aba2ba5509f3f3a4cd517a654847ce#diff-19bc831c1dab6d92d2efc3b87ec5c740 [6]: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-20442 [7]: https://pypi.org/project/mxnet/0.9.5/ [8]: https://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2017-December/031826.html [9]: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MXNET/Release+Process [10]: https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r3171eadc746ae1690c298a852321a7977a9bf98d651cf426f07af990%40%3Cgeneral.incubator.apache.org%3E [11]: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INCUBATOR-253?focusedCommentId=17172716&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-17172716 ## Infrastructure ## Miscellaneous ## Credits ## Table of Contents [AGE](#age) [Annotator](#annotator) [BlueMarlin](#bluemarlin) [DataSketches](#datasketches) [DolphinScheduler](#dolphinscheduler) [Doris](#doris) [ECharts](#echarts) [Heron](#heron) [Liminal](#liminal) [Livy](#livy) [NLPCraft](#nlpcraft) [PageSpeed](#pagespeed) [Pegasus](#pegasus) [Pinot](#pinot) [Ratis](#ratis) [S2Graph](#s2graph) [SDAP](#sdap) [Sedona](#sedona) [Toree](#toree) [Training](#training) [Tuweni](#tuweni) [Warble](#warble) [Weex](#weex) -------------------- ## AGE AGE is a multi-model database that enables graph and relational models built on PostgreSQL.

DataSketches has been incubating since 2019-03-30. ### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating: 1. Adding more committers. We have just added our first new committer since incubation! We have a few more individuals that have been consistent contributors to the project that we will soon want to go through the new committer election process. This is a big change from our last report where we had no candidates at all. 2. Fill out the Maturity Model 3. Prepare for Graduation. ### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of? We could use some help in finding people who would find working in the sketching algorithms area really interesting and would want to work with us to become committers. ### How has the community developed since the last report? The word is getting out! We presented talks at the USPTO 2020 tech conference and the Spark & AI 2020 conference, mentioned in the last report, with lots of good feedback. We will be co-authors in a tutorial on sketching technology at the upcoming ACM-KDD conference in August with one of the world's leading scientists in streaming algorithms and sketching. We have been invited to give a keynote talk at the upcoming DataCon2020 in Taiwan in early September. We have been accepted for a talk at ApacheCon again this year. We also are seeing a big increase in the number of single PRs coming from a number of different people, especially for our C++ components, which is very good news. This proves that there is growing interest in the project and there are folks out there that want to contribute to the project. ### How has the project developed since the last report? See the releases since the last report below. In addition we have made significant improvements to our website thanks to some external contributors! To the best of our knowledge all of our licensing and website issues have been addressed and have been implemented in formal releases or are in master-branch staging, awaiting the next release. ### How would you assess the podling's maturity?

August, 2020 ### Have your mentors been helpful and responsive? Yes, in general. However, we do have to prod them with reminders to check-off our releases. Our releases have been taking longer and longer to get through the voting process especially when it is in the 2nd IPMC phase. A little help here would be appreciated. ### Is the PPMC managing the podling's brand / trademarks? To the best of our knowledge, yes. * Are 3rd parties respecting and correctly using the podlings name and brand? As far as we know, yes. * If not what actions has the PPMC taken to correct this? We have not had to face this issue yet. * Has the VP, Brand approved the project name? Yes, and it is clearly stated as such on http://incubator.apache.org/projects/datasketches.html ### Signed-off-by: - [X] (datasketches) Liang ChenApache Incubator is the entry path into the ASF for projects and codebases wishing to become part of the Foundation's efforts. There are presently 46 podlings incubating. In July, podlings executed 11 distinct releases. We added 1 IPMC members and none retired. There were no IP clearances in June. A couple of new podlings are still being discussed and proposals prepared. One projects APISIX graduated last month. This month we were missing reports from BlueMarlin, Liminal, NLPCraft, S2Graph, SDAP and Warble. Two podlings that failed to report are new which is concerning. Weex was unable to get sign off by its mentors. All will be asked to report next month. This is the third time that Warble has failed to report. As with last month, it's uncertain why a large number of podlings where unable to submit reports, but it's likely to be related to current external events. We've also seen more podlings needing to ask mentors and IPMC members to vote on releases and fewer mentors voting on releases. MXNet is slowing working on its issues with ASF release and distribution policy. But as with last month report, more issues have been found. The project has taken steps to correct items in both sets of issues, but there are still some outstanding concerns. There has been a constructive conversation with NVIDIA about changing the licensing terms to be compatible with the Apache license, and another 3rd party (DJL / Amazon) has MXNet corrected branding and trademark issues. But despite this progress, the MXNet PPMC seems reluctant to fix these issues promptly and not is not following advice given. An objection to guidelines on distributing releases on various platforms was brought up at the last minute (despite multiple conversations spanning over a year being held on these guidelines). This initiative has stalled. Technically the vote to approve these guidelines passed, but until the person clarifies or removes their objection, it's unclear how to proceed. The person did not respond to requests to clarify their objections. If this can't be resolved, it may require the board to step in. The Incubator has organised a track for the upcoming Apache@home conference. . Most discussions on the mailing list were around releases and on graduations and new proposals. SDAP sorted out its subscription/roster issues, but Spot still needs to do so despite multiple reminders. ## Community ### New IPMC members: ### People who left the IPMC: - None ## New Podlings - Sedona ## Podlings that failed to report, expected next month - BlueMarlin - Liminal - NLPCraft - S2Graph - SDAP - Warble - Weex (failed to get mentor sign off) ## Graduations - APISIX The board has motions for the following: - None ## Releases The following releases entered distribution during the month of July: - Annotator 0.1.0 - Daffodil 2.7.0 - DataSketches Hive 1.1.0 - DolphinScheduler 1.3.1 - NLPCraft 0.6.2 - NuttX 9.1.0 - Ratis 1.0.0 - Ratis third party 0.5.0 - Toree 0.4.0 - Tuweni 1.1.0 - Tvm v0.6.1 ## IP Clearance - none ## Legal / Trademarks - Onging issues with MXNet (see INCUBATOR-253) ## Infrastructure - None ## Miscellaneous - None ## Table of Contents [AGE](#age) [Annotator](#annotator) [DataSketches](#datasketches) [DolphinScheduler](#dolphinscheduler) [Doris](#doris) [ECharts](#echarts) [Heron](#heron) [Livy](#livy) [PageSpeed](#pagespeed) [Pegasus](#pegasus) [Pinot](#pinot) [Ratis](#ratis) [Sedona](#sedona) [Toree](#toree) [Training](#training) [Tuweni](#tuweni) [Weex](#weex) -------------------- ## AGE AGE is a multi-model database that enables graph and relational models built on PostgreSQL.

We have a few more individuals that have been consistent contributors to the project that we will soon want to go through the new committer election process. This is a big change from our last report where we had no candidates at all. 2. Fill out the Maturity Model 3. Prepare for Graduation. ### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of? We could use some help in finding people who would find working in the sketching algorithms area really interesting and would want to work with us to become committers. ### How has the community developed since the last report? The word is getting out! We presented talks at the USPTO 2020 tech conference and the Spark & AI 2020 conference, mentioned in the last report, with lots of good feedback. We will be co-authors in a tutorial on sketching technology at the upcoming ACM-KDD conference in August with one of the world's leading scientists in streaming algorithms and sketching. We have been invited to give a keynote talk at the upcoming DataCon2020 in Taiwan in early September. We have been accepted for a talk at ApacheCon again this year. We also are seeing a big increase in the number of single PRs coming from a number of different people, especially for our C++ components, which is very good news. This proves that there is growing interest in the project and there are folks out there that want to contribute to the project. ### How has the project developed since the last report? See the releases since the last report below. In addition we have made significant improvements to our website thanks to some external contributors! To the best of our knowledge all of our licensing and website issues have been addressed and have been implemented in formal releases or are in master-branch staging, awaiting the next release. ### How would you assess the podling's maturity?
