Dear all,

Maybe you have received Apache board meeting report already. Apache Olingo
now a TLP :-)

Thank you all for the great support from Apaches incubator. That Olingo is
now a TLP is also your result.

Olingo has learned a lot from incubation and is now happy to continue on
the Apache Way as TLP



Greetings,
Stephan

This could be a cache issue. If I do a command+shift+R then the current

BTW, it's now 2014

So, to be accurate I have to write 2013-2014 because of Olingo was
launched in 2013, right?


Minor nit: the link for the Apache Olingo tm header item probably
ought to point to the home page rather than using # which only takes
one to the top of the page.

I'am going to fix this as well...

[DISCUSS] Graduate Apache Olingo as TLP

2014-03-10 Thread Klevenz, Stephan
Hello,

Apache Olingo is in incubation since August 2013. Since then the
project made a lot of progress, has created 2 releases (where the
3rd one is in progress), added 7 new committers and has now 18 in
total and got two major code contributions [1]. Also the mailing
list is quite busy and many people do show interest into the
project [2].

The Olingo community did agree to graduate and had voted for a
resolution proposal [3, 4]. The resolution  is added to this mail
and and we would like to ask the IPMC if there are any objections
to it.

Dear all,

This is a call for a vote on Apache Olingo 1.0.0 incubating. This is our 3rd 
try of our 1st release. We have resolved all issues which were discussed since 
our 1st release candidate.

Apache Olingo is a library implementing OData V2 protocol specification.

A vote was held on the Olingo developer mailing list and it passed with eight 
+1 votes where two +1 votes came from our mentors. The vote had zero -1 or 0 
votes (see the vote thread [1] and result thread [2]), and now requires a vote 
on this list.

The vote will be open for 72 hours and passes if a majority of at least 3 +1 
IPMC votes are cast.

[ ] +1 Release this package as Apache Olingo 1.0.0 incubating
[ ] -1 Do not release this package because ...

Anny,

Thanks for your feedback. Maybe you have recognized that Apache Olingo has
passed the vote (Thanks all!!!) and starts now incubation. As soon as we
have a mailing list I would like to encourage you to have this interesting
discussion on our incubator mailing list.

Regards,
Stephan

Dear all,

This is a very good initiative. We use OData in our integration projects
as
the standard protocol. Based on our experiences with OData as a standard
and
its exiting ecosystem, I have a few suggestions,

1. Please start by supporting OData v3 (not v2). v2 is relatively old,
lacks
some key features that are present in v3. Also, the ACCEPT header
semantics
for JSON format is compatible between v3 and v4 (the current in progress
version) but not v2. This is critical from a consumer point of view.
Another
reason to start with v3 is that it is the version that was submitted to
OASIS for standardizing which will come out very soon as v4.

2. Please evaluate odata4j which is designed very well despite some bugs
and
deficiencies. This allows this apache project to take the best of ideas
from
2 of the available implementations of odata on java.

Thanks  Regards,
Anny G

I'm not sure how Olingo is pronounced in Spanish but I'm certain there

Olingo is a little bear [1] and that name should avoid any confusion with

Someone who is interested in OData will use this term and the result page
will today list odata.org as the protocols homepage, Wikipedia which is

is

If we use a different name someone has to know this name and has to

Re: [PROPOSAL] OData Proposal for Incubator

2013-06-18 Thread Klevenz, Stephan
Rob,

Thanks for your hint. I do understand Marmotta as an implementation of the
Linked Data Platform (LDP). Linked Data is a concept for building a
semantic web where things are identified by URIs. Links can be used to
explore things.

OData is a data centric protocol which describes metadata and allows data
queries. It can be seen as the SQL for the web. One main use case is to
open data silos to be accessible over the web. Apache OData is a
implementation of the OData protocol.

Although LDP and OData make use of REST principles both do address
different uses cases. I don't see overlap here.


Regards,
Stephan

What overlap (if any) do you see with the existing Marmotta podling?

They are building out an implementation of the Linked Data Platform which
is a ongoing W3C standardization effort
(http://www.w3.org/2012/ldp/wiki/Main_Page) and can be thought of as a
more RDF/Semantic Web centric alternative to the MS/Oasis OData standard.

= Apache OData =

=== Abstract ===

Apache OData is a generic Java language implementation of the OData 2.0
specification which will serve as a code base for the upcoming OASIS
OData specification.

=== Proposal ===

The Open Data Protocol (OData) [1] is a Web protocol for querying and
updating data that provides a way to unlock your data and free it from
silos that exist in applications today. OData does this by applying and
building upon Web technologies such as HTTP, Atom Publishing Protocol
(AtomPub) and JSON to provide access to information from a variety of
applications, services, and stores.

The Apache OData is a library which enables developers to implement OData
producers and OData consumers. Basic principles of the library are to
provide an OData 2.0 specification compliant OData Library, enhancements
shall be possible in a compatible manner, have a clear separation between
Core and API, to provide an option to build extensions on top. This
library should be base for implementing future releases of the
specification.

=== Background ===

OData was originally developed by Microsoft and is released in a version
2.0 under an Open Specification Promise [2]. A lot of companies did show
interests in this protocol, used it in products and gave feedback back to
Microsoft. This joined effort resulted in a new release OData 3.0 in
2012, this version became the basis for the OASIS technical committee [3]
which is currently working on a new version of the specification. This
OASIS standard release is expected this year.

The initial Java code of this project was developed by a development team
that had already experience with other OData 2.0 and 3.0 implementations
at SAP AG. The current code base implements OData 2.0 and because of this
version is widely used it is a good starting point to build an open
source community for the OData standard.

The current code also comes up with an implementation of an OData sample
service. On the one side this is an example for users which want to use
the library to expose their own data and on the other side it illustrates
how implemented features work.

Additionally, the code base includes an extension which is called JPA
processor. With this extension it is easy to expose any JPA persistence
model via OData protocol without a lot of coding.

=== Rationale ===

More software vendors moving to OData means more choice for customers who
will be able to use different implementations. For the standard to
succeed, however, ensuring interoperability is paramount: in order to
manage an ever growing context and leverage the enormous portability and
interoperability issues that a globally adopted standard brings, it is
necessary to think about how to make the related ecosystem healthy and
sustainable. Successful modern standards are driven by:

 * Clear documentation, built iteratively with continuous feedback from
stakeholders
 * A clearly defined compatibility process, enforced by tools that allow
to gauge how implementations can be compatible and interoperable
 * Accurate compliance criteria, documented in writing as well as in
actual testing code that measure how tools and libraries are able to
interoperate
 * A sample implementation to clear up potential doubts and ensure that
the standard can actually be implemented in real life scenarios

The above mentioned pieces are able to make the development activity,
towards an OData implementation, easier and more successful. Having an
healthy ecosystem will ensure a smoother implementation process, more
compliant products, and ultimately, a wider adoption of the standard.

The OData ecosystem has been successful

Thanks for interest. I have added Apache Bloodhound to the list of
potential integrators in the proposal document

About your question to OData Phyton binding. This is very interesting
because of OData as a web protocol is not just bound to a single
implementation technology. We don't have concrete plans but an Apache
OData community could potentially benefit from a Phyton contribution.

JFTR , at present there is an ongoing effort to start working on an
integration of the oData standards with Apache Bloodhound (similar to
TracGVizPlugin [1]_ for Google Charts API ; I'll follow up with

Therefore I'm curious and would like to know if some effort will be

FWIW , the way I see it this project will be a very beneficial

Hi Henry,

You are absolutely right and we are aware of that we are currently a
homogenous community. We don't want to stay this and encourage everyone to
join our effort and become a committer of the Apache OData project. OData
as an open OASIS standard will profit from a diversified OData project at
Apache. 

At GitHUB, where we released the original code a few weeks ago, we
received already some contributions from other developers. And we are in
contact with the technical committee at OASIS to create awareness about
this proposal. This could also create interest by other people.

Nethertheless this project is a young one and has to do effort to increase
its community.

To me the question is if developers from outside of SAP are attracted to
OData and also if the SAP team can properly be open to and inclusive of
new volunteers on their dev list.

I think that there are a surprising and wide number of possible consumers
and producers of content in this form.

Services can be defined based purely on the data they provide and
consume. Putting OData services in the context of Tomcat and CXF aligns
perfectly with my $dayjob. I could become a user of this software.
