Re: [DRAFT] May Podling Report Edgent
Although, I think John Ament resigned as a mentor to Edgent, not sure if he is still required to sign off.

[DRAFT] May Podling Report Edgent
Comments? I whipped this up by updating the last one … === Edgent Apache Edgent is a programming SDK and micro-kernel style runtime that can be embedded in gateways and small footprint edge devices enabling local, real-time, analytics on the continuous streams of data coming from equipment, vehicles, systems, appliances, devices and sensors of all kinds (for example, Raspberry Pis or smart phones). Working in conjunction with centralized analytic systems, Apache Edgent provides efficient and timely analytics across the whole IoT ecosystem: from the center to the edge. Edgent has been incubating since 2016-02-29. Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation: 1. Create and expand a diverse community of contributors and committers around the Edgent project. 2. Attracting at least another independent committer/ppmc member. 3. Finding further real world users of Edgent Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware of? Community participation, implying interest in Edgent, continues to be an issue. One of the two active committer/PPMC members has retired at the end of February and the level of their continuing participation is has been significantly reduced since then. The second active committer was also very consumed with finishing his house- building, which is now finished. So we are hoping to see increased activity again. How has the community developed since the last report? * An article on Apache Edgent has been published as cover-story in the German JavaSPEKTRUM magazine in March (https://bc-v3.pressmatrix.com/de/profiles/4967c6d5eae1/editions/138b1a28747149541fb0) * At the Techcamp.Hamburg in April we had one well attended talk about Apache Edgent * Total, we have 76 subscribers to our mailing list, an increase of 4 since the last report. * We have seen a new name on the list, which seems to be interested in contributing. Especially in the Kafka area. We are hoping to see more activity in the near future. How has the project developed since the last report? * We have updated the Kafka module to the latest Kafka version * According to JIRA, 2 new issues were added and none were resolved in the last 90 days * 12 commits were made in the last 90 days. How would you assess the podling's maturity? Edgent is making slow but consistent progress towards graduation. While we don't yet meet the diversity requirements, we put emphasis on community growth through outreach which will ultimately pave the way for additional committers and contributors. Additionally, before we graduate it is important that we find users outside of IBM. As most Edgent committers are employed by IBM, external stakeholders help ensure long term contribution to the project. [ ] Initial setup [ ] Working towards first release [X] Community building [ ] Nearing graduation [ ] Other: Date of last release: 2017-12-14 Apache Edgent 1.2.0 When were the last committers or PPMC members elected? In August 2017, we added Christofer Dutz as a new committer and PPMC member.
