Report content

Incubator PMC report for September 2018

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

There are presently 52 podlings incubating. During the month of August,
podlings executed 8 distinct releases and there are several ongoing votes
on releases for September. Some long standing release votes were resolved.
We added three new IPMC members.

Several podlings are heading towards graduation. We had one project,
Gossip, retire to the attic. BatchEE seems stuck in performing the last
graduation steps and needs some nudging over the line.

There were no IP clearances.

A number of podlings (3) that didn't report has decreased and Pony Mail has
finally reported. Senssoft has some issues that stoped it from reporting
but they are currently being addressed. Milagro has missed several reports
in a row and has failed to respond to queries to why this has occurred.
Gearpump have indicated they are discussing retiring.

Discussion continues about with to do about missing mentors and some
actions should be taken in the next month including contacting mentors and
asking if they still want to continue in the role. This may result in a
number of mentors needing to be replaced, and currently it is not known what
mentor capacity the IPMC has. We've had a number of members join the IPMC
to mentor projects this month which is encouraging. Given the low levels of
activity on some projects (as indicated by sign off rates and a sampling
of email list activity) this is a serious issue for the IPMC.

There's also been discussion on some podlings spending too long in
incubation and hopefully that will lead to a few more graduations and
retirements in the near future.

Changes have been suggested to the podling report and incubator proposal
template that should help in small ways with the above situations.

A podling, Superset, has been making releases not in line with the Apache
release policy. I've asked the podling to correct this and it's mentors are
helping out with this and other issues. The podling has been almost 2 years
in incubation and has made a large number of "unofficial" releases (50+).

Comments: The first release will be an important milestone. (During
incubation the project has made non-ASF releases, with permission.)
All other aspects of the project are functioning well; the project
has built a vibrant community and lets the community drive its
decision-making. I think it is not far from graduating.

Comments: Generally, the podling is doing well. The community is still
getting used to using mailing lists but I have no concerns at
at this stage of the podling's development
I do remain concerned at the volume of github notifications
and the difficulty in following them. I plan to chat with the
infrastructure folks at ApacheCon NA to see if there are any
changes that could be made on the infrastructure side to help
in this area.

Myriad

Description:

Myriad enables co-existence of Apache Hadoop YARN and Apache Mesos
together on the same cluster and allows dynamic resource allocations
across both Hadoop and other applications running on the same physical
data center infrastructure.

Myriad has been incubating since 2015-03-01.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

* Grow the community and enroll new committers.
* Have (more) frequent Release cycles to be compliant with the Apache Way.
* Creating roadmaps for releases with goals (new features).
* Social media presence (new blog entries, conference talks).
* Unblock the issue [MYRIAD-264] Upgrade Mesos API to 1.5.x

Any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board wish/need to be aware of?:

This Poddlig is one of the listed at IPMC list thread
“Poddlings length of time in the incubator”. This Poddling was stalled
for about two years, however the current new PPMCs have the hope of
increasing the community unlocking the main issue we are facing. We
have had low dev-mailing list activity the pass months, nevertheless
we are working for unlocking our main issue.

How has the community developed since the last report:

General low activity since June.

How has the project developed since the last report:

No visible activity.

How does the podling rate their own maturity:

PageSpeed

PageSpeed represents a series of open source technologies to help make the
web faster by rewriting web pages to reduce latency and bandwidth.

PageSpeed has been incubating since 2017-09-30.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

1. Create a first release
2. The project needs more active developers

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?

The last report being missed was my bad (oschaaf), I was on vacation
and forgot to ask someone else to do it.

How has the community developed since the last report?

Again, there have been very limited external contributions, two
contributions to the core code-base.
We do see certain users committing to helping out others on the google
group and github, some of them consistently for months now.
In terms of user engagement activity continues to be healthy.

How has the project developed since the last report?

- Problems with Travis timeouts have been mostly fixed
- Flaking dependencies hosted on sourcefourge have been fixed
- Work is still in progress for a particularly nasty bug, which
would be great to have fixed in a first release.
- An external contributor has been maintaining a docker image
for ngx_pagespeed, which should be proposed for inclusion into
the ASF repo soon

OpenWhisk

OpenWhisk is an open source, distributed Serverless computing platform able to
execute application logic (Actions) in response to events (Triggers) from
external sources (Feeds) or HTTP requests governed by conditional logic
(Rules). It provides a programming environment supported by a REST API-based
Command Line Interface (CLI) along with tooling to support packaging and
catalog services. Additionally, it now provides options to host the platform
components as Docker containers on various Container Frameworks such as Mesos,
Kubernetes, and Compose.

OpenWhisk has been incubating since 2016-11-23.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Finish the remaining component source code release under Incubator
a. Release process/automation/documtantion are here
https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk-release).
2. Increase additional company and individual Contributors to maintain all
project repos. and address Issue / PR backlog.
3. Close legal transferred of Trademark handoff for "OpenWhisk" name and
logo to ASF

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware of?

* Issue backlog building on incubator-openwhisk is still a major issue
(partly due to #2 above). As of this report, the "open" issue backlog is 384
(up from 365 as of last report), but open PR is at 35 (down from 55 as of last
report). Please note this is just on the "main" platform repo. and likely is
paralleled in other release component repos.
* Need to prioritize and work to reduce while advancing major proposals
around restructuring around abstractions to accommodate running on Knative
while enhancing support for better logging/scheduling and performance testing
enhancements.
* Trying to add more active Committers to augment those who have
dropped off in their activity; however, we have reached an impasse where
potential new Contributor pull requests are not getting timely reviews/merges
to provide a resume' for adding to the Committer roles.
* It seems that Apache Infra. will not provide us servers to host a staging
environment that would help us perform needed staging testing on Pull Requests.
This means that independent testing needs to be done by members (companies).
We have explored a corporate donation as suggested (ala Spark and SystemML),
but this does not seem possible at this time.
* No change in status since last quarterly report.
* Formal hand-off of OpenWhisk trademark/logo from IBM needs to be
executed; need to identify process for this. See #3 above.
* Discussion started w/ Apache legal via "legal-discuss" mailing list
with subject "Trademark handoff for "OpenWhisk" name and logo".
* IBM intends to hand-off ownership of trademarks at time of graduation.

How has the community developed since the last report?

* dev mailing list activity increased since Q2 driven by release-related
activity and an increase in technical discussion on the mailing list.
* incubator-openwhisk Github stars: 3472 (+254 since last report)
* incubator-openwhisk GitHub forks: 652 (+36 since last report). Note lots
of more competing projects entering the Serverless space.
* Slack community:
* 969 members (+151 from last report). Very active in most channels
from both end users or the project and contributors
* To-date: 112,326 messages sent across all channels
* Analytics: https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/admin/stats

Pony Mail

Pony Mail is a mail-archiving, archive viewing, and interaction service,
that
can be integrated with many email platforms.

Pony Mail has been incubating since 2016-05-27.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

1. Growing community and interest around the project
2. Step up pace of branch development
3. Fine-tune release process

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?

Pony Mail is in a bit of a slumber at the moment, with the principal
people being busy elsewhere. This is not to say that oversight isn't
happening, but that the development pace has slowed significantly.
We hope this picks up in the foreseeable future.

How has the community developed since the last report?

Sharan Foga has joined as a new mentor. We are assessing whether there
is need for more people to help out.

How has the project developed since the last report?

Not much to report here, a few bug fixes and issues filed.

Pulsar

Pulsar is a highly scalable, low latency messaging platform running on
commodity hardware. It provides simple pub-sub semantics over topics,
guaranteed at-least-once delivery of messages, automatic cursor management
for subscribers, and cross-datacenter replication.

Pulsar has been incubating since 2017-06-01.

Most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

None

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?

Earlier in June there have been few discussions on the private list
regarding communications regarding Pulsar that were not coming from
PPMC or that were not respecting the ASF policies. Clarifications
followed between PPMC members, mentors and interested parties to
ensure the mistakes were made in good faith and, in particular, to
make sure everyone was fully has full understanding of ASF
policies. There was no other branding related issue after the first
occurrence.

How has the community developed since the last report?

The community added 8 new contributors that submitted pull-requests
which were merged into master.

The number of users approaching the team on the Slack channel has
kept steadily increasing since the last report. Many users have
actively deployed. Pulsar for evaluation and production use cases.

Different meetups were organized by project members and hosted by
Yahoo in Sunnyvale and Yahoo Japan in Tokyo. We have presented
Pulsar's introductions, updates on the state of the projects,
deep-dives and hands-on tutorial, including recorded podcasts.

One talk on Pulsar was presented at one at OSCon in July and there
are several scheduled talks: 2 at ApacheCon in September, and 2
others at Strata New York in September.

Since the last report the number of weekly-active-users on the Slack
channel has increased from 53 to 88.

How has the project developed since the last report?

28 authors have pushed 494 commits to master in the last 3 months.

The project has made the its seventh release since joining the
Apache Incubator (2.1.0-incubating on Aug 2nd).

This release introduced these new features:

* Pulsar IO: A connector framework for moving data in and out of
Apache Pulsar leveraging Pulsar Functions runtime.
* A number of builtin connectors: (Aerospike, Cassandra, Kafka,
Kinesis, RabbitMQ, Twitter)
* Tiered Storage: An extension in Pulsar segment store to offload
older segments into long term storage (e.g. HDFS, S3). S3 support
is supported in 2.1 release.
* Stateful function: Pulsar Functions is able to use State API for
storing state within Pulsar.
* Pulsar Go Client
* Avro and Protobuf Schema support

Community is actively working on a bug-fix release
(2.1.1-incubating) and on the next milestone, 2.2 release for which
the biggest feature will be support for SQL within Pulsar.

Since June, 5 new PIPs (Pulsar Improvement Proposals) for
major feature/changes, have been submitted to the wiki and
discussed in the mailing list.

PIP 23: Message Tracing By Interceptors
PIP 22: Pulsar Dead Letter Topic
PIP 21: Pulsar Edge Component
PIP 20: Mechanism to revoke TLS authentication
PIP 19: Pulsar SQL

Quickstep is a high-performance database engine.

Quickstep has been incubating since 2016-03-29.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

1. Adoption of the Quickstep technology.
2. Grow the Quickstep developer community.
3. Work towards a second release.

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?

Harshad presented the Quickstep paper at VLDB 2018 conference in Rio De
Janeiro, Brazil.
The presentation was attended by many database researchers and industry
practitioners.
The presentation had explicit calls to collaborate and participate in the
Apache community.
We plan to reach out with those who expressed interest in the project.

How has the project developed since the last report?

The development activity was slow during the summer.
There are ongoing efforts on the following objectives.

1. Enhancing the type system used by Quickstep
2. Supporting concurrent queries in the system
3. Developing a distributed version of Quickstep

Comments: I am becoming worried about the project. Development
continues at a reasonable pace, and serves the needs of existing
contributors who are producing research papers. The "following
objectives" listed above were not discussed on-list, AFAICT.

However Quickstep is unable to attract outside contributors, nor
apparently achieve adoption by end users.

It is nearly 18 months since the last release. I will encourage
them to make a new release. That will generate some activity, but it
may not be enough.

SensSoft

SensSoft is a software tool usability testing platform

SensSoft has been incubating since 2016-07-13.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

1. Extending release process to other parts of the SensSoft software stack.
2. Grow the Apache SensSoft (Incubating) Committer/Community Base.
3. Complete the issues highlighted at the SensSoft Roadmap
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SENSSOFT/Roadmaps

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?

Yes. In the last Quarter, a number of core Apache SensSoft committers
changed organization. While the Apache SensSoft team will use this as an
opportunity to organically grow the committer/community based, these
departures have caused branding concerns for the organization that
initiated the Apache SensSoft software gift to Apache—The Charles Stark
Draper Laboratory, Inc. (Draper). Specifically, in referencing an
affiliation with the ‘Apache SensSoft’ project at different organizations,
an Apache SensSoft committer received the following request from Draper:
“We flagged your signature for review by Draper legal since SENSOFTtm and
Software as a Sensor (R) are Draper-owned trademarks. As you know, the main
purpose of trademarks is to avoid customer confusion. We believe that the
use of SENSOFT or SOFTWARE AS A SENSOR in [another company’s] employee
signature block may lead to confusion as to the source and owner of the
SENSOFT product. While we appreciate your acknowledgement that Draper owns
SOFTWARE AS A SENSOR and SENSOFT technology, and the good will behind your
intentions to promote technology you worked on while at Draper, in order to
preserve the Draper trademarks we respectfully request that you either:
-Remove any reference of SENSOFT or SOFTWARE AS A SENSOR from your BAE
signature block; OR -Indicate in the signature directly following SENSOFT
the following: “SENSOFTtm and SOFTWARE AS A SENSOR are trademarks owned by
the Charles Stark Draper Laboratory, Inc.” NOTE: SENSOFT refers to
SENSSOFT (SENSOFT is a misspelling) The committer in question has
corresponded Draper and raised the issue that ‘Apache SensSoft’ refers to a
public open source project, where ‘Software as a Sensor’ and ‘SENSSOFT’
refer to Draper proprietary technology, as well as citing the terms of the
Software Gift. Draper is steadfast in asserting rights now that committers
formerly at Draper are now at other employers. While this affects the
Apache SensSoft community’s ability to grow through outreach and publicity,
we do not believe we require Legal assistance from the ASF. Rather, in
discussion with both Draper and Apache SensSoft PPMC/Champions, the path of
least resistance appears to be to change the Apache SensSoft project name.
The PPMC will initiate a vote on @dev for changing the name. If it passes,
a subsequent vote will determine the projects new name. In the meantime,
committers will begin removing references to Software as a Sensor(tm) from
project documentation.

How has the community developed since the last report?

Several community members have started new employment opening opportunities
for community growth in the last quarter. No new community members have
come onboard.

How has the project developed since the last report?

Development continues at a sustainable level. Several major improvements
have been made to make the Apache SensSoft stack deployable at various
levels of scale, including major improvements to documentation and
examples, and testing procedures. Project maturity roadmaps (Wiki) and
version release plans (JIRA) continue to be maintained.

Spot

Apache Spot is a platform for network telemetry built on an open data model
and Apache Hadoop.

Spot has been incubating since 2016-09-23.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

1. Revive community activity (Discussion in mailing lists, increase
frequency of commits).
2. Make it easier for Devs to create plug-ins for ingest of data.
3. Developing a workflow in Spot that allows intuitive analytics without
the need of licensed software.

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware
of?

N/A

Have your mentors been helpful and responsive or are things falling through
the cracks?

Due to the community’s irregular activity level over the past months we
have had trouble aligning with our mentors.
The project is in the process of establishing a cadence to our activities
and we welcome help and advice from mentors.

How has the community developed since the last report?

Project wide meetings are continuing every 2 weeks. We are starting to see
more Pull Requests come in. Hoping that the end of summer (end of
vacations) will bring further participation from the community. We are
working on updating the Spot website and confluence pages to reflect
changes in the project.

How has the project developed since the last report?

A roadmap draft has been constructed. Our next focus is creating a new
release. Therefore, work is underway on closing some long running Pull
Requests and important bug fixes.

Superset

Superset is an enterprise-ready web application for data exploration, data
visualization and dashboarding.

Superset has been incubating since 2017-05-21.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Plan and execute our first Apache release
2. Align on a long-term product roadmap with the broader Apache Superset
community
3. Grow the community and enroll new committers

Any issues that the Incubator PMC or ASF Board might wish/need to be aware
of?
* At this point in time, we’re having issues on how to come up with the
LICENSE file needed for our first Apache release given the number of
dependencies we have on the Javascript side. Since we package the JS
bundle along with our Python application, it seems like we'll have to
come up with either a programmatic way to extract the LICENSE info, or ship
the application without the JS deps, and provide instruction has to how to
fetch and build the package deps, which isn't very convenient. We also have
some minor deps on GPL lib, one of which we need to get clarity as to how
to to handle them. It's related to the "chardet" sub dependency of the Pypi
requests library.

Currently, we believe there are 2 approaches to dealing with the LICENSE
and NOTICE files for Superset. Either:
A) Dynamically building these files by querying npm/pypi (the javascript
and python package repositories) for all the metadata and assembling these
files. See the list of JS packages organized by licenses here:
Https://github.com/apache/incubator-superset/pull/5801
B) The other approach is to distributed a stripped down version of Superset
that has a script that fetches external deps and builds it.

The committers are activating around these issues and thinking creatively
about resolving them. A thread on dev@superset.incubator.apache.org was
started and a discussion is taking place.

How has the community developed since the last report?
* Organic growth of our Github contributors (246->274), forks (3318->3627),
watchers
(1020->1077) and stars (19,399->20,519)
* Group of active committers meeting bi-weekly from Airbnb, Lyft and
Twitter. Added Michelle Thomas as a new committer.

How has the project developed since the last report?
* A completely redesigned dashboarding experience launched
* Big Number charts have a new look and visualization
* In the Table Config & SQL Lab -> Explore View, clicking a data source now
opens a modal with table editing for settings, columns, calculated columns,
& metrics
* Addition of integration and functional tests
* A healthy, constant flow of bug fixes, quality improvements and new
features, take a look at the project’s Pulse on Github for more details

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

1.release new versions compliant with configJSR, rework API
2.grow the community, get more active participants
3.graduate as the project is functionally very mature already

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be

2. Graduate?
3.

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be

INFRA-16698 is pending comments from Daniel Gruno / IPMC on how
to manage incubator repositories on git-wip-us.apache.org that have
been retired (in our case transferred to another GitHub organizations).
The suggestion is to do a "git rm" and leave a README on the head commit
pointing to the new location.

f2424fa5465e944c3@%3Cgeneral.incubator.apache.org%3E

How has the community developed since the last report?

2 Google Summer of Code students have been active over the summer with
strong guidance from mentors and getting pull requests merged.

However the rest of the community has been very quiet and not
commented much on the GSOC progress or pull requests.

How has the project developed since the last report?

Good progress from GSOC students, which code bases are now
due a new release to include their changes.

Two legacy git repositories were retired to not go through
graduation (INFRA-16698).

There is not much outstanding towards graduation, except
re-engaging the PMC members.

We will have to admit we are a slow project, which is
OK (many Apache projects are), yet still there seems
to be some kind of incubator fatigue - for
instance no-one else picked up the job of doing this
report although prompted to do so by a mentor.
