Hi Mentors, Can you please review the following draft Pirk podling report for September? I will post it on the incubator report wiki once everyone is happy with it.
(This time, I will make sure not to touch anyone's sign off box on the wiki :)) Thanks! Ellison Anne ********** Pirk Pirk is a framework for scalable Private Information Retrieval (PIR). Pirk has been incubating since 2016-06-17. The initial code for Pirk was granted on 2016-07-11. Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation: 1. Establish a formal release process and schedule, allowing for dependable release cycles in a manner consistent with the Apache development process. 2. Establish a process which allows different release cycles for the core framework, extensions/adaptors, and additional algorithms. 3. Grow the community to establish diversity of background and expertise. 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? We have officially welcomed two new committers (Tim Ellison and Suneel Marthi). The mailing list activity, pull requests, and page views to the Apache Pirk website (via Google Analytics) have also greatly increased since the last report. How has the project developed since the last report? The project completed it's first release, 0.1.0-incubating, since the last report. Additionally, the project has ensured that all dependencies are compliant with the Apache License version 2.0 and that all code and documentation artifacts have the correct Apache licensing markings and notice. The project has also undertaken a refactor of some of the initial packages and provided initial streaming implementations. Date of last release: August 29, 2016 When were the last committers or PMC members elected? Pirk elected two new committers (Tim Ellison and Suneel Marthi) on August 18, 2016.
