I have started testing this release yesterday by doing a full deployment
/ tests. But I found at least an issue I would consider a blocker for
this RC: see BIGTOP-446.

I provisioned 20 CentOS 6 machines (8 core, 23GB RAM each), used our
puppet recipes to deploy this RC and tried to run some of my code on it
(importing a dump of freebase in my triplestore and query it)

Here are some notes:
1/ typo in puppet recipes. BIGTOP-446
2/ zookeeper wasn't started. Once I manually started the service
(without any issue), everything got unblocked. Probably worth opening a
ticket.
3/ hbase-master couldn't start because it could not connect to zookeeper
because of 2/
4/ Somehow, the jobtracker and hdfs directories got set up only after
the zookeeper issue got resolved (because of 2/)
5/ I noticed quite a few crashes on the tasktracker/regionservers. Their
stack traces are from being helpful. But this is an upstream issue (or
me/puppet doing something stupid).
6/ Because of 5/, it would be nice to have some supervisor processes
7/ It would also be very helpful to have some
munin/collectd/ganglia/nagios integration
8/ It would be nice to be able to configure HBASE heap
9/ I would rather configure hadoop heap as a percentage of available
ram, instead of an absolute value


Overall I really enjoyed it!
The combination of puppet recipes and packages made it really easy to go
from nothing to a 20 machine hadoop cluster.



Thanks,
Bruno

March report draft

2012-03-13 Thread Jukka Zitting
Hi,

With all podling reports in and a draft preamble in place (still
working on it), I think the Incubator board report on the wiki [1] is
pretty close to being ready for submission.

I'll submit the report to the board in about 24 hours, so be quick if
there are any more comments or updates.

PS. Mentor sign-offs are currently standing at:

0: Etch, Kato, RAT, Wave
1: Accumulo, Bloodhound, Hama, HCatalog, Isis, S4
2: Bigtop, Cordova, DeviceMap, Kalumet, ManifoldCF, MRUnit,
Openmeetings, OpenOffice, Rave
3: Flex, Flume, Sqoop, Syncope

Re: Request for an early review of an potential Apache OpenOffice release

2012-03-13 Thread Jürgen Schmidt

Hi,

we have prepared a new developer snapshot on the way to our first release.

We would very much appreciate some early feedback if possible. The 
AOO3.4 release will be an important milestone for the project and I 
think also for Apache to show that project is up and running. And that 
Apache is able to host and drive the project forward.


Kind regards

Juergen

Hi,

the Apache OpenOffice podling project is moving forward to a first
release that is long expected by the OpenOffice.org community and users.

You know that Apache OpenOffice is the continuation of OpenOffice.org
and that the project is very huge, has a very long history and a very
huge user base all over the world.

IP clearance work to conform to Apache standards" or "to conform to the
Apache Way and we would like to get some early feedback if we are in
shape with the Apache guidelines for a potential release.

We have prepared developer snapshots over the past several weeks for our
project members to test and review. This developer snapshots can be
found under

Source package
http://people.apache.org/~jsc/developer-snapshots/src_releases/srcrelease.html


Binary package
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+3.4+Unofficial+Developer+Snapshots


The mac version is also signed and the check files can be found in the
download directory directly
http://people.apache.org/~jsc/developer-snapshots/macos/r1296433/

NOTE: Be careful with the binary packages and save your office user
profiles before testing. Existing OOo 3.x installations will be
overwritten. We provide full install sets to test system integration and
upgrades. Currently we are not able to migrate installed extensions. And
there won't be bundled dictionaries but you can download a dictionary
from the migrated extensions repository
(http://aoo-extensions.sourceforge.net/). But of course we are working
on this.

Please rename your user profile before testing our snapshot build, and
re-rename your user profile after reinstalling a stable OOo version.

Right now we are focusing on show stopper issues but nevertheless we
would like to invite you to review the source packages and also the
binary packages if they fulfill the Apache requirements (e.g license,
NOTICE, ...)

We know that we have no release candidate (RC) right now and that it
would require some work by you. But because of the complexity of the
project we would very much appreciate any kind of early feedback at this
time. And the main goal is to fix potential issues early and to save
time later on when we have a first RC in place.

On behalf of the Apache OpenOffice PPMC

Yes, you can drop inactive members from the TLP resolution. See for
example http://markmail.org/message/3x7jatwgucsqcpmr for how Qpid did
this a few years ago.

Re: S4 status (was: Re: Thoughts on Incubator board reports)

2012-03-13 Thread Flavio Junqueira
Thanks for your interest in the project. Here are my thoughts about the points 
raised.

>>> I'd like to hear from the PPMC how they plan to expand their dev
>>> community.


I expect us to attract more developers by increasing awareness. We have given 
presentations about the project internally (at least at Yahoo!) and externally. 
Some of the developers have written a paper about it and presented in 2010 
(KDCloud) and we have proposed a talk for the next hadoop summit. Hopefully as 
developers hear more about the project they will feel compelled to join the 
community and contribute. We also expect to attract more attention once we have 
a release out (I believe we are close to cut a release). With a release, we can 
write a few blog posts about it and promote the project. 

Is there anything important I'm missing?

>>> P.S. The metrics aren't really clear.  What is "55 on dev" --- 55 unique
>>> posters?  55 posts?  Did they change by more than X% since last quarter?

We don't have numbers from previous quarters. The only other number I have is 
124 watchers on github.

 Just pick one from the list (ideally one that you aren't directly
 mentoring), read the submitted report (if one exists!) and compare it
 to the previous report (for most podlings that's the one from December
 [2]) and a quick browsing of things like the podling status page [3],
 web site, list archives and svn commit history. Then, if needed,
 follow up with a "$podling status" mail to general@ for any feedback
 or questions that you may have. You  may also place the podling in the
 appropriate category in the report summary if the review gave you a
 good enough picture of the podling status.
