Incubator PMC report for November 2022

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 36 podlings incubating. Podlings made 11 distinct releases. This month we are only missing a report from Marvin-AI. This project has massed several reports. We held roll calls for projects that had difficulty reporting or low activity, and some are discussing retirement. Some may need to be encouraged further. Several projects that had been incubating for some time were reminded that it was time to graduate or retire. There are discussions or votes on graduation for bRPC, Flagon, Kyuubi, Linkis, Nemo, Nuttx, StreamPipes and Tuweni. Other projects are discussing graduation or retirement on their lists. Livy now has a new PPMC and has avoided retirement. SDAP has determined they need to make a release before graduating. Pekko (a fork of the Akka project) has joined the Incubator. Following the recent board decision, we have removed the 72-hour waiting time to add PPMC members.

Livy

Livy is web service that exposes a REST interface for managing long running Apache Spark contexts in your cluster. With Livy, new applications can be built on top of Apache Spark that require fine grained interaction with many Spark contexts.

Livy has been incubating since 2017-06-05.

Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

1. Reinvigorate project with new committers and PPMC
2. Update support to latest Spark
3. Revitalize the community

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

There is a proposal on the incubator email lists to revitalize the Livy project around an updated set of goals with the addition of new mentors, PPMCs, and committers.

As the PPMC has seemed to have moved on, Jean-Baptiste Onofre and Alex Bozarth are the only members "active" on the private list and Alex has stated he does not have bandwidth to work on Livy currently, there is not a quorum available to vote on the proposal. As such we would like the IPMC to aid in passing the proposal to revitalize the project.

How has the community developed since the last report?

The community has been stagnant outside of the above proposal

How has the project developed since the last report?

There has been no development due to a lack of active PPMC/committers

•  Other: Nearing graduation in code stability but without a dev community supporting it, the devs have moved to working on forks due to lack of PPMC availability

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

Mentors missed signing off last month's podling report but have committed to signing of this report. A roll call of the PPMC was requested by Justin McLean to judge ongoing interest in the project following recent inactivity with 5 out of 9 responding and expressing interest in reviving the project. A vote is being preared to add a new PPMC member to help with outstanding administrative tasks, defining the project's roadmap and building the community.

1. Community growth.
2. Releasing a stable 1.0 version.

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?

Community development has seemingly stalled in the last few months. The main reason is probably due to core committers engaged in a 1.0 release tests and website update.

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

The project has been in the incubator for a long time.

While the project enjoys a strong user base that has grown during this time, the project has not succeeded to grow a strong developer base to match this. Therefore we think the project should withdraw from the incubator.

Signed-off-by:

  Comments: * The initial draft of the report said that there has been a release, which highlights a mismatch between SDAP's and ASF's idea of a release; education is needed. * SDAP's number 1 problem is their use of dev@. There is activity in the project (including commit messages going to dev@) but questions asked on dev@ go unanswered, and therefore conversations don't happen. Even the report is drafted on private@ rather than dev@. I think I can work with SDAP and get them to graduate but only if they engage on dev@. * I have given notice that I will resign as a mentor by Dec 31st if I don't see activity, namely a plan to graduate, and activity to carry out that plan.

Toree

Toree provides applications with a mechanism to interactively and remotely access Apache Spark.

Toree has been incubating since 2015-12-02.

Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

1.Increase active contributors

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?

With the release of Apache Toree 0.5.0-incubating we have had a few questions about the removal of the support for Python/R and we have explained the reason before that a couple more times.

We still see much of the users asking questions in the gitter channel rather than using the mailing lists.

How has the project developed since the last report?

After support for Scala 2.12 and Spark 3.x we will need to start looking ahead for supporting Scala 2.13.x as some users have been already asking for that on the project gitter channel.

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 unfinished issues to address before graduating:

1. Restart the Community
2. Start doing releases
3. Make Apache Training more well known

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

Currently the activity dropped to an all-time low. We even missed a number of reports. We had a discussion on the mailinglist, if we should aim for giving up, however the responses encouraged us to give it a new try and we are currently trying to restart the project as there is indeed some interest in the project.

How has the community developed since the last report?

It hasn't developed well, but we're hoping to change that with few players willing to participate more recently.

How has the project developed since the last report?

We had one talk at ApacheCon NA 2022 and it was pretty well attended … however not very many new folks showed up here.

Admittedly nothing has happened, so nothing has been falling through any cracks, however we missed some board reports, which are now being written by one of the mentors.

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

No issues.

Tuweni

Tuweni is a set of libraries and other tools to aid development of blockchain and other decentralized software in Java and other JVM languages.

Tuweni has been incubating since 2019-03-25.

Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

1. Getting the community informed about TLPs and charters

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?

The community has been relatively quiet. One bug report made by an end user, and several patches came together to create a nice new release.

We have had two threads on graduation on private list, and about to kick an official graduation vote on the dev list.

How has the project developed since the last report?

Some changes to the modules, specifically moving some code to Kotlin.
