# Incubator PMC report for October 2022

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

There are presently 34 podlings incubating. Podlings made 34 distinct 
releases.

VotingThis formonth thewe Heronwere releasemissing wasreports difficult(votingfrom lastedLivy, forSpot, moreTeaclave, than two months), 
and even though they had six mentors, only one participated in the vote.

The IPMCs suggested graduating PonyMail, which serves as the ASF infrastructure, a
nd the project members are basically Apache members, who have a hard time getting anything more out of the incubator, 
so it was felt that graduation was the best option for PonyMail.

There were several new proposals discussed this month, Baremaps and 
Celeborn (was Datark, some people worried Datark may not be a suitable podling nam) and 
Pekko (and 
Marvin-AI. All projects will be asked to report next month. Milagro didn't 
have the mentors' signoff and will also be asked to report next month. Pony 
Mail hasn't had a mentor sign off for the last four reports but owing to 
its unique nature, the report has been left in.
Voting for the Heron release was difficult(voting lasted for more than two 
months, and even though they had six mentors, only one participated in the 
vote. There is a discussion on their mailing list about them graduating.
The IPMC suggested graduating PonyMail, as the project members are ASF 
members, and it felt the Incubator has nothing more to teach them.
This month, several new project proposals were discussed: Baremaps and 
Celeborn (previously Datark) and Pekko. Pekko is a fork of the Akka project 
just priorbefore to its license changed from Apache 2 to the non open source
license Business Source License 1.1.).

Hivemall has so it's a fork of a hostile license
change.
Hivemall has retired. Livy started a discussion on retirement,. someSome people 
have expressed a desire to 
rebuild the Livy community as well as plans to do so,, so it might be 
possible to revive Livy.

A few podlings are already in the process of preparing for graduation.

The discussion around Sedona's graduation is premature, theytheir release 
version dondoesn't have a standard version of the disclaimer, and 
and the team version release vote mostly is meaningless +1.  

release 
votes need a bit more detail. 
SPAD and Heron has been encouraged to graduate.
Some Podlings shared their stories and the Apache experience in the 
Incubator track at ApacheCon NA in New Orleans.

## Annotator

Annotator provides annotation enabling code for browsers, servers, and
humans.

Annotator has been incubating since 2016-08-30.

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

  1. Incubation issues found by Whimsy. Some look correct (i.e. are pending 
  action from us). Others are things we did when we joined the Incubator.
     - No Software Grant and No IP Clearance Filed - this was done at the 
     onset of incubation iirc.
     - No Release Yet/Missing ASF Copyright Headers on Source Code - we 
     have made releases, but apparently missed getting headers on 
     everything.
     - No Release Yet/Binary has licensing issues - this is likely caused 
     by the above.
     - No Podling Name Search on file - we're looking into how to initiate 
     that process.
  2. We need more (active) mentors...still.
  3. Our release process is still cumbersome/lengthy, so we release rarely.

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

  We would like to initial the podling name search if possible. Additional 
  mentors would also be helpful.

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

  We've heard of a couple more development groups within the community 
  using Apache Annotator. We're also
  close to re-running a release vote in the next few weeks.

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

  We are working (again) to release an 0.3.0 release. The code has been 
  ready for sometime, but we face
  cross-platform build issues and other annoyances which have held it back.

  Another project using Apache Annotator recently surfaced (today) and it's
  to hear about more
 momentum in that regard.

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

  months pending clarifying the items above.

### Date of last release:

  2022-05-05

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

  2022-08-17

### Have your mentors been helpful and responsive?

  Voting involvement is still too low for us to easily turn around a release
  or the addition of a committer without
  personally hunting folks down. Similarly, getting mentor involvement looks
  similar--direct requests for input made
  via additional emails or IRC pings.

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

  There are no known branding uses of any kind -- good or bad.

### IPMC/Shepherd notes:
     JM:have you tried asking for new mentors on the IPMC list and removing the
  inactive ones? However I do see two mentors have signed off this report so
  perhaps they just need some encouragement to vote on releases and the name
  search?

## DataLab

DataLab is a platform for creating self-service, exploratory data science
environments in the cloud using best-of-breed data science tools.

  We help users participate in the community easily (like enhance issue
  template and more guidance, use the "Projects" module to manage the 
  release
 progress and to-do items on GitHub)

  And keep close contact with several potential committers (the next vote
will  will be held after the first release)

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

  Finished merging and unifying 4 sub-projects into the 
  "hugegraph-toolchain"
 project and enable a friendly code style check.

  We have renamed package name to "org.apache" for "hugegraph-commons", and
  are preparing to publish it to the maven, then modify other related joint
  modules.

  We support automatic selection of master node for task scheduler and
  optimized the pipeline of website update, now it supports automatic
  building and publishing. (improve the user experience).

needs countersigning. Investigations into a redirect on Milagro's
home page is still outstanding.
