Hi all, here is a draft of our report due today. If there are no objections / suggestions, I'll post this by the end of the day.
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: N/A Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware of? A discussion thread has begun on the retirement of the Slider podling. There has not been much activity on the thread so far. Concern was expressed that users who are unable to upgrade to Hadoop 3 will be stuck without Slider support. A question was posed about whether an additional release before retirement would help. Given the lack of involvement on the thread, it is likely that a retirement vote will be held soon. How has the community developed since the last report? No new community development. How has the project developed since the last report? Two commits have been made since the last report. One improved Slider's behavior in multi-homed environments and the other fixed a bug in how the Slider agent kills processes. How would you assess the podling's maturity? Please feel free to add your own commentary.
