Here's a draft of the board report which is due today. Let me know if you
have any additions.
-------
Slider
Slider is a collection of tools and technologies to package, deploy, and
manage long running applications on Apache Hadoop YARN clusters.
Slider has been incubating since 2014-04-29.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Apache Slider community/PPMC has voted to move portions of Slider into
Apache Hadoop YARN as modules. It is possible that the remaining pieces
will be moved at a later point in time or become obsolete or evolve to
work closely with YARN. Slider PPMC will decide what makes the most
sense as we progress through this exciting time.
2. Getting more external users
3. Growth of a diverse set of developers/committers/PMC members is also
crucial towards the final state of Slider
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?
There has been one new contributor since the last report. Mailing list
activity has been lower due to the bulk of the development moving to
an Apache Hadoop branch, but the lists are still active.
How has the project developed since the last report?
Work continues in parallel on the Apache Hadoop yarn-native-services
branch and on the Slider podling. The bulk of the work has been in
yarn-native-services, while a few Slider patches (related to critical
issues or agent-only issues) have been committed as well.
Date of last release:
2016-06-28 slider-0.91.0-incubating
When were the last committers or PMC members elected?
2015-07-07: Yu (Thomas) Liu
