Please review this report draft for March 2018. It is due today. -------------------- 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. Most important issues to address in the move towards graduation: Since new development on one of Slider's primary maven modules has moved to the hadoop-yarn-services-core module in Apache Hadoop, development of other Slider modules has also tailed off. The Slider community needs to decide whether we should retire the remaining Slider code or propose graduation. Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware of? No additional issues. How has the community developed since the last report? Mailing list and commit activity have continued at a low rate. We invited a new committer / PPMC member, Kyungwan Nam. How has the project developed since the last report? An improvement to allow Slider to work in multi-homed environments is in progress and we have fixed a couple of bugs related to certificate management and functional test failures when running on newer versions of Hadoop. How would you assess the podling's maturity? Please feel free to add your own commentary.
