# Incubator PMC report for June 2024

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 currently 28 podlings incubating. In May, podlings executed 5 
distinct releases and no IP clearances occurred. Several incubating 
proposals have been discussed on the mailing list. At least one new podling 
will be joining the incubator - OpenServerless. No podling graduated or 
retired last month. One person retired from the IPMC.  Two podlings, 
Liminal and Toree, failed to report and will be asked to report next month, 
and a roll call will be performed. Liminal should probably retire at this 
point. There was a discussion about the requirements of project download 
pages and why they are needed, most of the other discussions were on 
releases.

## 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. Apache Annotator is unable to produce releases due to low activity
  2. PMC is largely inactive
  3. Motivation to contribute is low due to inability of producing enough 
  release votes

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

  See above. Unless there is interest by new people to join the project and
  help getting out releases, IMHO it would make more sense to retire the
  podling, fork it and release it without the three-vote hurdle.

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

  The community has not grown.

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

  Yarn has been dropped from the project in favor of npm. Since then, a
  number of dependabot issues have piled up.

  - [ ] Community building
  - [ ] Nearing graduation
  - [X] Other: it is so stable that it is probably ready for retirement ;) 

### Date of last release:

  2021-07-14 (0.2.0)

  We tried to get out a 0.3.0 in May 2022, but it got stuck in the vote.

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

  @reckart was the last one to join in August 2022 (waving the flag).

### Have your mentors been helpful and responsive?
  @BigBlueHat has prepared the previous incubator report for this project and
  has provided some guidance.

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

  I don't know.

## Baremaps

Apache Baremaps is a toolkit and a set of infrastructure components for
creating, publishing, and operating online maps. 
Baremaps has been incubating since 2022-10-10.

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

  1. Reviewing the changes made to make the code and documentation website 
  compliant with Apache standards
  2. Growing the community
  3. Making releases

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

  We believe that most of the issues related to licensing have now been
  addressed. The next step is to remove the DISCLAIMER-WIP in future releases.

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

  No new committer joined the project, but a few issues, documentation
  improvements, and pull requests were submitted by external contributors.

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

  We released a new version of Baremaps and the process went relatively
  smoothly. A nice collaborative effort also started to implement a
  GeoParquet reader and to support OvertureMaps files.

  pushing for all of that.

### IPMC/Shepherd notes:

--------------------
## Nemo

Nemo is a data processing system to flexibly control the runtime behaviors
of a job to adapt to varying deployment characteristics.

Nemo has been incubating since 2018-02-04.

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

  1. Motivate growth in the community
  2. Address remaining items before graduation   

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

  The issue raised in our previous podling report (Mar. 2024) still exists.
  This is a project initiated from academia, and many of the committers have
  graduated with their degree and moved on to something else. The project
  itself is very promising, known that many outstanding academic papers have
  been developed on top of Apache Nemo [1-5], so it would be ideal if it
  finds its purpose, however it seems quite challenging at this particular
  moment. It is quite disappointing to see the project lose its momentum
  during the covid-19 pandemics, which made it extremely challenging for us
  to build the community. Nevertheless, the project itself, I believe,
  deserved to be in the TLP, but it seems like if there is no breakpoint for
  the project regarding the project community, I think we could start
  discussing about sending it to the attic. Any suggestions or opinions are
  welcome!

### IPMC/Shepherd notes:

--------------------
## Training

The Training project aims to collect, and share training resources, and 
develop tools to support training resource creation (templates, etc.). 
The resulting tools and curated training artefacts 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 unfinished issues to address before graduating:

  1. Review and eventually simplify the release process for training 
  artefacts - or at least confirm finally, that we use the existing flow as
  it is to go on
  2. Establish a sharing culture with other projects - Apache Training 
  needs a link to other projects so that the training artefacts can be owned
  but contributed by the creators of the project, but share via Apache
  Training
  3. Grow the community so that non-tech contributors can find a home 
  inside the ASF, by joining Apache Training as tech-writer, translator, or
  educator who helps us to spread the words.

### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
  - nothing critical right now

### How has the community developed since the last report?
  - the last report was delayed, to access issues but now it works.
  - the collaboration between Apache Wayang and Apache Training has been
  established - the joint presentation at the CoC 2024 in Bratislava is a
  result
  - one non-tech contributor (from CISO domain) has been interviewed and we
  work on his onboarding

### How has the project developed since the last report?
  - I did multiple attempts to release the tools-subproject, but due to
  permission issues I am not able to to go through the full procedure.
  - I still need support to sort out this access permission issues.

### IPMC/Shepherd notes:

--------------------
## Wayang

Wayang is a cross-platform data processing system that aims at decoupling
the business logic of data analytics applications from concrete data
processing platforms, such as Apache Flink or Apache Spark. 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:
