In May, podlings executed 8 distinct releases. We added three new IPMC members, added one new podling ShenYu, and one podling Weex retired. There were no IP clearances in May. There are two new podlings under active discussion, and no podlings graduated last month. This month there were no misisng reports which is nice to see. Livy is discussing retirement. Podlings cleaned up a few more podling release areas. A podling needed to be reminded that 3 +1 PMC votes are required, and it's a good idea to wait 72 hours before calling a release vote. There was some discussion on making Helm releases and how that can work and comply with ASF policies. TubeMQ continued working on renaming itself to InLong. The Incubator track for ApacheCon has been organised with two days of talks on various subject split into two groups on the Incubator (releases and mentoring) and Incubating projects. As usual, most discussions on the mailing list were around releases, new project proposals, new mentors, and we also found out that Minecraft wasn't working. ## Community ### New IPMC members: - Jeff Zhang - Nathan Hartman - Yu Li ### People who left the IPMC: - None ## New Podlings - ShenYu ## Retired Podling - Weex ## Podlings that failed to report, expected next month - None ## Graduations - list podling here The board has motions for the following: - Your podling here? ## Releases The following releases entered distribution during the month of May: - Age 0.4.0 - Doris 0.14.0 - Heron 0.20.0 - Liminal 0.0.2 - NLPCraft Java Client 0.7.5 - NLPCraft 0.7.5 - NuttX 10.1.0 - Sedona 1.0.1 ## IP Clearance - None ## Legal / Trademarks - Clarification on binary files in source releases, although it seems more of an issue to TLPs than podlings. ## Infrastructure - N/A ## Miscellaneous - N/A ## Table of Contents [AGE](#age) [brpc](#brpc) [Crail](#crail) [Hivemall](#hivemall) [Hop](#hop) [Livy](#livy) [Marvin-AI](#marvin-ai) [Nemo](#nemo) [Pinot](#pinot) [ShenYu](#shenyu) [Spot](#spot) [StreamPipes](#streampipes) [Wayang](#wayang) -------------------- ## brpcAGE brpcAGE is ana industrialmulti-grademodel database RPCthat frameworkenables forgraph buildingand reliablerelational andmodels high-built performanceon servicesPostgreSQL. brpcAGE has been incubating since 20182020-1104-1329. ### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating: 1.

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? There is confusing communication with the organization. We submitted our quarterly report last month. The final report from last month noted that our report was not accepted because it was not signed off. However, we read the minutes from the Board that said all submitted reports were accepted, so we assumed we didn't need to worry about a report for another quarter. Last night at midnight we were notified for the first time that our report was due the same day. With less than 24 hours notice, it seems unlikely we'll be able to get sign-off from our mentor. ### 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 for 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 Are things falling through the cracks? If so, please list any open issues that need to be addressed. Our mentors have been helpful and responsive. ### Is the PPMC managing the podling's brand / trademarks? Are 3rd parties respecting and correctly using the podlings name and brand? If not what actions has the PPMC taken to correct this? Has the VP, Brand approved the project name? The PPMC manages the podling's brand / trademarks. ### Signed-off-by: - [ ] (nemo) Hyunsik Choi Comments: - [X] (nemo) Byung-Gon Chun Comments: - [X] (nemo) Jean-Baptiste Onofré Comments: - [X] (nemo) Markus Weimer Comments: ### IPMC/Shepherd notes: -------------------- ## Pinot Pinot is a distributed columnar storage engine that can ingest data in real- time and serve analytical queries at low latency. Pinot has been incubating since 2018-10-17. ### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating: None - After having a discussion on the mailing list with committers, PMCs, contributors and mentors, we have addressed all the issues. Updated the project page, maturity model, committer and PMC list on the roster. ### 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? We now have 1000+ members in the Apache Pinot Slack Community - all slack discussions are forwarded to the project mailing list. Around 10 new users/contributors are joining the slack channel every couple of weeks and actively participate in asking questions, discussing feature requests, issues etc. The community is very active in engaging on both slack and mailing list with very fast turnaround on discussions. ### How has the project developed since the last report? Released 0.7.1, 175 new commits merged to master branch in last 3 months (April 2021 to present), 56 issues closed in last 3 months (April 2021 to present), 64 new issues opened in last 3 months (April 2021 to present) ### How would you assess the podling's maturity?

In your case it looks liked the sign off come in late after the Incubator report was submitted, so sorry for asking you to report again. Best to try and submit the report and have it signed off by the due date if possible. Reminders are sent to the incubator general list and you mentor(s) should be watching for those. I would suggest you ask for another mentor so that you are not dependant on just one person. -------------------- ## StreamPipes StreamPipes is a self-service (Industrial) IoT toolbox to enable non- technical users to connect, analyze and explore (Industrial) IoT data streams. StreamPipes has been incubating since 2019-11-11. ### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating: 1. Grow the community 2. Make more releases 3. Complete Maturity assessment ### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of? There are no issues right now. ### How has the community developed since the last report? * In general, there was a little less activity on the mailing list during the last reporting period, but a more diverse set of contributors has actively participated in discussions. * We had several pull requests from new contributors * We had several proposed projects and applicants for Google Summer of Code proposed by various PPMC members, but unfortunately, no projects were selected * 1 new PPMC member and 1 new committer elected (see below) * Number of Twitter followers has increased (last report: 171, currently: 188) * Number of Github stars increased (last report: 205, currently: 234) ### How has the project developed since the last report? * Release 0.68.0 is delayed and still in the pipeline, but will willhopefully hopefully be finished this month * We put large effort into fixing several bugs that affected the stability of StreamPipes, e.g., auto restart of pipelines * Several UI improvements (pipeline preview, improvements to the live dashboard, and many more) will be part of the next release which are intended to attract more users * Some new community members have added new pipeline elements to StreamPipes * Another major improvement are refactored SQL-based data sinks to the extensions project ### How would you assess the podling's maturity?

Hence, it tames the complexity that arises from the "Cambrian explosion" of novel data processing platforms that we currently witness. Wayang has been incubating since 2020-12-16. ### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating: 1. Educate the new PPMCs to be able to do Apache releases 2. Do our first Apache release 3. Grow the community ### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of? Until the moment of this report it was created and didn't have any issue, because all the important issues got solved. ### How has the community developed since the last report? The community members are in the applying process to present in a few conferences to show Apache Wayang to the Processing Platform Community and other communities that could be interested in the project. Also, different members of the community had meetings with possible contributors, however, nothing is concrete until the writing point of the report. Additional to that the community is searching for more developers that can be part of it. ### How has the project developed since the last report? The main focus is the first release. The team is focusing on cleaning the code, refactoring some parts and preparing the documentation. However, it is taking more time than the estimated one, but the community members are pushing to have it done as soon as possible. ### How would you assess the podling's maturity?
