Add your use case to the "Powered By" Page
Hi folks, As part of the Beam Website redesign, we're going to revamp the "Powered By" page, and this is an opportunity for you to add your use case to the list of projects using Apache Beam. If you'd wish to add your project, please add a subtask in jira: BEAM-11225 [1] with the following information: - Company or project name - One sentence description of your company/project - One short paragraph of your use case (150 words max) - Logo to display - (optional) Links to any public presentation, blog or publication If you don't have a Jira account, you can reply to this thread with this information. Thank you! [1] https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-11225
Re: Looking for a PMC member to help with website development
The reason why I was asking a PMC member was to minimize dependencies in permissions needed for code/reviews, commits, etc. I don't have full visibility to confirm that any committer could help here. If that is the case then we can cast a broader net. Even if I am a committer, I can't help the team since I don't have enough bandwidth nor extensive experience developing websites.

[Proposal] State of Apache Beam Document
Hi Folks, Hoping to add more transparency and visibility to the efforts of all contributors to Apache Beam, Kenn Knowles (PMC Chair) and I have drafted a State of the Project document [1], which collects an overview of the project's components: (Beam Model, SDKs, Runners, Connectors, etc.) in three timeframes: What's been recently done, What's currently happening and What's happening next. The idea we had is to provide an artifact that give visibility to users and contributors of what's happening in the project. Proposal 1. Adopt this document to present an overview of the project to our community and publish it in our wiki, GitHub project repo and website. 2. Adopt a quarterly updating cadence aligned with the timeframe we send updates to the ASF board If you agree with this proposal, I'd like to move forward with the publication in the afore mentioned channels.

[Discuss] Beam Jira Dashboards
Hi folks, I recently created a few public Dashboards in Jira, the intention is to bring visibility into reported bugs, feature request, development opportunities and effort distribution. Having visibility into these items can help us make informed decisions to guide things like: roadmap updates, surface known issues to users, and make it easy for new contributors to get started. I'd like to discuss two topics: - How to keep Jira's input fresh to make these Dashboards more useful - How to adopt these dashboards to make decisions for the project. And I'd love feedback on the dashboards themselves: - Are they useful? How could they be more useful? - Suggestion on what other views/filters to use - Ideas to keep improving them Here's the list and description of the Dashboards I made: Backlog [1]: Aims to help make decisions on project roadmap. Pulls tickets opened in the last 26w (6m), and orders them by votes. The view offers: On the side panel: - A pie chart of the distribution of tickets (excluding java and python core*) - A label heat map to help identify biggest opportunities (exc. python and java core*) - Two filter windows to pull tickets related to Spark and Flink runners On main panel: - A summary of the tickets by component and issue type (to identify critical issues pero component) - A filter publishing all issues - A view of ticket statistics by status and issue type (to help us understand effort and opportunity dist.) * I excluded python and java core components because they dwarf other components, so exclusion helps provide better view of other components distribution. Need triage and Stale [2]: Aims to help organize newly opened tickets and keep tickets fresh. This dashboard shows the issues that need triage or have been marked as stale, and have been created in the last 12w (3m). The view offers: On the left panel: - A list of all tickets that need triage or are stale On the right panel: - A heat map of components - A pie chart of issue type - A view of all labels to help with triage Starter Tasks [3]: Aims to help potential contributors identify opportunities to make their first contribution. This view pulls all tickets marked with labels used for starter tickets, for all time. It orders the tickets by votes, priority, date created, and reporter. The view offers: On the side panel: - A pie chart of the distribution of tickets by component - A component heat map On the main panel: - A view of all starter tickets by component and issue type, to help make decisions on urgency/importance - A view by reporter, to help identify who to reach out with clarifying questions - The full list of all available starter issues Links: [1] https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Dashboard.jspa?selectPageId=12335849 [2] https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Dashboard.jspa?selectPageId=12335923 [3] https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Dashboard.jspa?selectPageId=12335926

Website redesign next steps
Hi Beam Community, Aizhamal shared with us a plan to revamp the current Beam Website[1] a few weeks back. This plan was split into three phases: Phase I: Migrate the Apache Beam website content to Docsy, Phase II: Identify the areas of improvement and develop artifacts and Phase III: Designing and implementing solutions. Phase I and II were recently completed, and phase II produced a document in which the community suggested improvements and made request for the new website design [2]. I'll be working on phase III of the redesign, and this is how I plan to do it: 1) Write a Product Requirements Document based on the input provided in [2] 2) I will share with the community for feedback 3) Once the PRD is approved, I'll form a working team to implement the redesign. If you're interested in being part of this team, by either contributing with some of the work (we'll need tech writers, designers, front end developers, etc.) or by sponsoring the team that works on this, please let us know. The target for project completion will be end of September. Thanks everyone!

Re: [Discuss] Beam mascot
Hi everyone, so exciting to see this convo taking off! I loved Alex's firefly! -- it can have so many cool variations, and as a stuffed animal is very original. Other ideas I had are a caterpillar because it looks like a data pipeline, lol or the beaver! Feedback on the current sketches. - They resemble a lot either the Octocat or Totoro [1] - I'd like to see something that is completely new and original, pancakes from gRPC is an example[2] - Something more caricaturesque is better, since we can dress it up and modify it To move forward, it seems that the animals that were winners in this thread are: Beaver (3) Firefly (3) Lemur or votes on sketches (3) Cuttlefish (2) Hedgehog (1) Salmon (1) So let's focus the design proposals on the three winners: beaver, firefly and lemur. I'd like to see more options on beavers and fireflies, the current sketch options I think are based on the cuttlefish and the lemur (?) I think it's a good idea to get sketches from multiple designers, since like someone else pointed out, we'll get variations based on their personal styles, and someone else mentioned here that we have teams/companies with designers in their teams, so let's take advantage of that as well :) I'd suggest to fork the conversation into a call for sketched and we vote on that.

Last time we checked (back in October), people who are not part of the PMC couldn't send emails to the private mailing list nor read the responses. The organization of the last London Summit occurred in the private list with me and Matthias directly cc'ed in our individual emails. Additionally a few of the other organizers didn't get visibility on how decisions were formed and this obstructed the planning. I'd suggest we continue with the initial discussion here in order to offer transparency, if a sensitive matter needs to be discussed, we can call it out here and set context that a specific conversation will be moved to private, bringing the decision made back to this thread. Also, I'd recommend we keep the discussion focused on the main matter: Summit planning. If you have a proposal to revise what communications need to be had in specific channels, you can start the conversation in a new separate thread, I see a lot of value in having it. @PMC members, we'd love to get an outline of what needs to be done to continue with the planning.
