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. Finish IP Assignments
2. Code Migration
3. Perform a Release
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
No
How has the community developed since the last report?
We have the key committers signed up. We are all learning how
to navigate in the Apache environment and how to find things.
How has the project developed since the last report?
This is our first report.
How would you assess the podling's maturity?

Our DataSketches.GitHub.io site is quite active as we are
very active with new code and releases from this site.
For example, our latest release of sketches-core was yesterday,
25 April 2019.
We are a long way from being able to release from the migrated
Apache code base as it doesn't yet exist.

2. Prepare for the second Apache Release.
3. Grow the community encouraging patches and recognizing sustained
contributions by adding as Committers and PPMC members.
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
None.
How has the community developed since the last report?
There are 29 contributors now.
How has the project developed since the last report?
Excluding merges, 12 authors have pushed 75 commits to master and 233 commits to all branches.
On master, 253 files have changed and there have been 14,050 additions and 3,027 deletions.

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. Apache domain name should be used for the Website.
echartsjs.com and echarts.baidu.com should redirect to echarts.apache.org.
Currently they are not redirecting due to slow loading time in China.
We are working on with a CDN to improve the loading time in China.
2. Website Analytics information should be accessed by PPMC members.
We are going to create an Analytics account that can be accessed by PPMC members.
3. Develop more committers from the community.
Currently there are some contributors in the community that have contributed
continously and should be considered as new committers.
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
We haven't come to a conclusion whether we could use Baidu Tongji in the Website,
which is a product quiet similar to Google Analytics.
We've consulted John Kinsella <jlkinsel@gmail.com> as our mentor suggested, but got
no reply. See https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/efa62d1ace0cc27f7ee4e47df94c346e863b6419f1d1e3ea6fe32c10@%3Cdev.echarts.apache.org%3E
My suggestion is to use bothe Baidu Tongji and Google Analytics. The reason is that
Baitu Tongji has only Chinese UI, while Google Analytics may have the potential of
losing some data in China since many Google products are not accessible in China.
If IPMC and ASF Board are OK with it, we will start a vote for the plan.
How has the community developed since the last report?
We have announced our first new committer from the community.
More people come to contribute in the community, in the forms of code changes, document
mending, and so on.
How has the project developed since the last report?
We released v4.2.1.

Edgent
Apache Edgent is a programming SDK and micro-kernel style runtime
that can be embedded in gateways and small footprint edge devices enabling
local, real-time, analytics on the continuous streams of data coming
from equipment, vehicles, systems, appliances, devices and sensors of
all kinds (for example, Raspberry Pis or smart phones). Working in
conjunction with centralized analytic systems, Apache Edgent provides
efficient and timely analytics across the whole IoT ecosystem: from the
center to the edge.
Edgent has been incubating since 2016-02-29.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Re-creating a working community
2. Re-populating the PPMC
3. Replenishing the group of mentors
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
For the past months, there has been very few activity in the project
There have been a hand full of Emails from external peoples in the
last 3 months but the activity in the project has been solely by me
(Julian) and Christofer Dutz writing emails without getting any form
of response from the rest of the committers, PPMCs or mentors
Julian held a Talk on the conference buildingiot 2019 with very positive
response and we have an Edgent Meetup on May, 6. Where we hope to see some new faces.
The main problem we have is that the only active people in the project
came in Late and are not that firm with the codebase. Currently, we
have a codebase for which we have a detailed understanding of the build,
but almost none of the code itself. Furthermore, there has been a lot of
activity in other projects and generally edge processing has developed
further in the recent years.
Thus, there is some discussion going on about the core or the aim of the
project to keep its significance and uniqueness.
How has the community developed since the last report?
* Total, we have 82 subscribers to our mailing list, an increase of 5
since the last report.
* There has been one questions asked by users and little
discussions about these issues on the list
* On April, 4th, Julian Feinauer has Talked about Edgent on the building
iot 2019
· On May, 6th, a Edgent Meetup is planned in Frankfurt
How has the project developed since the last report?
* According to JIRA, 0 new issue were added and none were resolved in
the last 90 days
How would you assess the podling's maturity?
After the withdrawal of most of the active committers and PPCM members
currently a new committer, PPMC and mentor-base has to be built.
Currently we try to re-gain the focus of edgent to
Start to rebuild the community and resume development.

and PPMC member.
In November 2018, we added Julian Feinauer as a new committer

I just double checked, but it seems our mentors are not existent
there had been one or two issues where feedback was explicitly
asked for, but both the PPMC as well as all mentors remained silent.
Except Justin mentioning the absence of mentors. Christofer Dutz
joined as new Mentor and is active in the project.

- A first draft-release is being manually checked for policy compliance. We expect
to be able to raise a thread on general soon to discuss/vote.
- There has been some discussion how to get the project site in-order, and there's
a plan for that now (transfer modpagespeed.com to the AFS, duplicate contents to
pagespeed.incubator.apache.org).

at a Data Science Workshop @ JPL
How has the project developed since the last report?
SDAP is still working towards its first release. Mentors have provided some
suggestions that will be taken into consideration for the Java parts of the
project, but the python release process also needs to be better understood.
A new tool has been published that helps with reading the output produced
from the Matchup algorithm.

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 issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Agree upon underlying technology stack and architecture for training content
2. Develop first training topic contents
3. Set up our contribution process
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
- no critical issues at this point in time
How has the community developed since the last report?
- The project has been set up recently, so there is an initial activation/development towards a community.
- The dev mailing list is active. The total number of posts in March was 160 and in April 140
- Total number of subscribers is 32 (25 in March)
How has the project developed since the last report?
- The scope of the project deliverables and core procedures are still under discussion (e.g. what makes a release?)
- We have had our first few commits. They were for infrastructure (e.g. website) and repository structure
- We have been approached by a few more people wanting to donate content and we hope to be able to accept it soon
- We actually have the first issue for an actual content donation (Apache Way, ZooKeeper and Git) and hope to have it included soon, the first ones will probably be slow while we work on processes and best practices

collaborate.
