+1 - xsums/sig verify, RAT ran clean and the appropriate files are there.

Note: for some reason the sha512 file is gzip'd (at least it was when
I d/l it via chrome), not a text file. However if you un-gzip it the
sha512 matches.

[jira] [Created] (INCUBATOR-129) Clarify whether incubator release announcement should include an incubation disclaimer

2015-02-03 Thread Julian Hyde (JIRA)
Julian Hyde created INCUBATOR-129:
-

 Summary: Clarify whether incubator release announcement should 
include an incubation disclaimer
 Key: INCUBATOR-129
 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INCUBATOR-129
 Project: Incubator
  Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Julian Hyde


Some claim that the release announcement from an incubator project should 
include an incubation disclaimer but it is not common practice (according to 
the google search site:mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-general 
announce incubating only about 1/3 of releases include it) not is it 
documented (the Disclaimers section at 
http://incubator.apache.org/guides/branding.html says that the web site, 
documentation and releases should include a disclaimer; it does not say that 
the release announcement should include a disclaimer).

If this is policy it would be helpful if it were documented.

A google search of incubator release announcements

incubating) reveals that only about 1/3 of them have the disclaimer.
So, neither policy nor practice are clear. I have logged

documentation of the policy.

 Singa Incubator Proposal

 Abstract

 SINGA is a distributed deep learning platform.

 Proposal

 SINGA is an efficient, scalable and easy-to-use distributed platform
 for training deep learning models, e.g., Deep Convolutional Neural
 Network and Deep Belief Network. It parallelizes the computation
 (i.e., training) onto a cluster of nodes by distributing the training
 data and model automatically to speed up the training. Built-in
 training algorithms like Back-Propagation and Contrastive Divergence
 are implemented based on common abstractions of deep learning models.
 Users can train their own deep learning models by simply customizing
 these abstractions like implementing the Mapper and Reducer in Hadoop.

 Background

 Deep learning refers to a set of feature (or representation) learning
 models that consist of multiple (non-linear) layers, where different
 layers learn different levels of abstractions (representations) of the
 raw input data. Larger (in terms of model parameters) and deeper (in
 terms of number of layers) models have shown better performance, e.g.,
 lower image classification error in Large Scale Visual Recognition
 Challenge. However, a larger model requires more memory and larger
 training data to reduce over-fitting. Complex numeric operations make
 the training computation intensive. In practice, training large deep
 learning models takes weeks or months on a single node (even with
 GPU).

 Rational

 Deep learning has gained a lot of attraction in both academia and
 industry due to its success in a wide range of areas such as computer
 vision and speech recognition. However, training of such models is
 computationally expensive, especially for large and deep models (e.g.,
 with billions of parameters and more than 10 layers). Both Google and
 Microsoft have developed distributed deep learning systems to make the
 training more efficient by distributing the computations within a
 cluster of nodes. However, these systems are closed source softwares.
 Our goal is to leverage the community of open source developers to
 make SINGA efficient, scalable and easy to use. SINGA is a full
 fledged distributed platform, that could benefit the community and
 also benefit from the community in their involvement in contributing
 to the further work in this area. We believe the nature of SINGA and
 our visions for the system fit naturally to Apache's philosophy and
 development framework.

 Initial Goals

 We have developed a system for SINGA running on a commodity computer
 cluster. The initial goals include, * improving the system in terms of
 scalability and efficiency, e.g., using Infiniband for network
 communication and multi-threading for one node computation. We would
 consider extending SINGA to GPU clusters later. * benchmarking with
 larger datasets (hundreds of millions of training instances) and
 models (billions of parameters). * adding more built-in deep learning
 models. Users can train the built-in models on their datasets
 directly.

 Current Status

 Meritocracy

 We would like to follow ASF meritocratic principles to encourage more
 developers to contribute in this project. We know that only active and
 excellent developers can make SINGA a successful project. The
 committer list and PMC will be updated based on developers'
 performance and commitment. We are also improving the documentation
 and code to help new developers get started quickly.

 Community

 SINGA is currently being developed in the Database System Research Lab
 at the National University of Singapore (NUS) in collaboration with
 Zhejiang University in China. Our lab has extensive experience in
 building database related systems, including distributed systems. Six
