HI Patrick, Sorry for the late reply, was trying the time to gather the information.
If you look at the email archive [1] you can see the dev@ list contains good amount of emails. This include messages from Github Pull Requests mirror and JIRA discussions. The new features development and design had always been made to public for discussions. I am not admin for dev@ list so I do not have numbers about how many increase of subscriber. And the community has released about 7 good releases [2] >From start of incubation it added only 1 new PPMCs member but it is not because lack of trying. The community has presented in Apache Con 2014 [3] and add information to public sites [4] [5]. More importantly, the mentors had not needed to add any advice other than validate the report. The releases made were one of the easiest ones to vote for. Putting my IPMC hat on, I do not see any reason for Twill to be in incubator anymore. Thanks, - Henry [1] http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-twill-dev/ [2] https://archive.apache.org/dist/incubator/twill/ [3] http://apacheconnorthamerica2014.sched.org/event/875342b2235e30ec53057352ac7df111 [4] http://www.infoworld.com/article/2609460/hadoop/meet-apache-twill--the-newest-member-of-club-hadoop.html [5] https://jaxenter.com/developing-distributed-applications-with-apache-twill-107728.html On Mon, Jan 18, 2016 at 9:37 PM, Patrick Hunt <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Henry, thanks for sending this out.
