Ooops - I may not be able to claim (binding) for general incubator...

My +1 (non-binding) still holds though. :)

Metron has demonstrated a terrific commitment to the Apache Way.
They get it and are definitely ready for graduation.

Re: The state of Sirona

Well said.
It is healthy to not have a podling graduate and subsequently struggle as a
TLP.
This is actually a success of sorts.

At least until a majority of podlings have trouble. :)

H - interesting points about incubator vs github and overhead.
I do think my statement was unclear though.

I was saying exactly the same thing about struggling podlings.
Much better to find out in the incubator than as a TLP that the apache way
isn't really going to work for them at the moment.

Re: [PROPOSAL] Sentry for Incubator

2013-07-30 Thread Larry McCay
Hi Shreepadma -

Interesting work.

Given some more diversity on the mentor list, I would give a +1.

Being on the IPMC for Knox, I can easily imagine Sentry and Knox being 
complementary to each other and look forward to contributing to and/or 
leveraging this work within Knox.
I'd be interested in throwing around some ideas for Knox and Sentry assuming 
you get accepted into the incubator.

We can start discussions on either list - once established.

thanks,

--larry

Good luck!

I would be interested in being a committer on user-grid due to the
synergies that seem possible between Apache Knox (incubating) and user-grid.

If this is something that you would welcome then I would be happy to join
as an initial committer.

Regardless, good luck and enjoy!

Re: The podling initial committers issue

2013-09-25 Thread larry mccay
I was under the impression that what you describe was the policy - if it is
not then is should certainly be clarified.

In the event that podlings continue to or are to be given such a choice, I
believe that there needs to be a clear understanding between the incoming
community and those volunteers that are shepherding them through the
process as to what the choice is and some of the nuances that will be
encountered in the execution.

If there is no choice there then this consensus step is less necessary and
the process can be more easily executed by the champion, mentors and
incoming community.

That shared understanding seems to be what was missing in this case.

Re: The podling initial committers issue

2013-09-25 Thread larry mccay
I propose that this then be seen as a learning experience and determine
what questions a champion needs to ask of the mentors and incoming
community on the outset in order to execute.

This has been an unfortunate bit of thrashing that was avoidable through
communication. That is not to say that it is anyone's fault or anyone is
right or wrong.

We just need the champion/mentor survey questions established.

Re: please follow through to publish doc changes

Jake, thank you for taking care of that!

I didn't see anything on the Knox mailing list - should I have?
Can you tell me exactly what was fixed and where?

We will be sure to investigate what went wrong and document the proper
procedure going forward.

Is there anything that is outstanding that is still needed from the Knox
community?

Thanks,

Hi Sebb -

Thank you for your review and insight!

We will make these changes immediately and insure that they are correct
going forward.

Do these issues require a new release candidate - or would that only be
indicated by a -1?

thanks,

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache Knox-0.3.1-incubating RC3

2013-12-02 Thread Larry McCay
Thank you  again, Sebb.
I am noting your new findings here and will fix them asap for the next
release.

I assume that your lack of an actual vote indicates that these fixes can be
made in the next release and that you are not indicating that this RC
should be abandoned. Please let me know if this is an inappropriate
assumption.

Thank you for your review and insight.
We are canceling this vote to address the NOTICE files and other issues and
then create a new release candidate.

Hi Alejandro -

I believe that Steve has already acknowledged that a package rename is
required and that the project is likely not appropriate for Hadoop proper.

Re: [DISCUSS] Eagle incubator proposal

Arun -

This is a very interesting proposal and I can imagine at least a couple
ways that it and Apache Knox could work together.
I would like to be a contributor to Eagle as well - if you are interested.

I am a committer and PMC member on Knox and Ranger and have contributed to
a number of ecosystem projects on security issues.

Good luck!

+1 - I am concerned by the trend that I see developing here.

A set of interview questions for evaluation is one thing but criteria
checkboxes that will encourage behaviors by rote will not actually develop
more healthy communities just communities that can get the boxes checked.

While certain metrics like adding PMC members may be indicators of natural
growth they should not be required otherwise they will be done artificially.

Hi Caleb -

I am glad that it is useful for your projects.

I think that the use of it that you describe is valuable.
It should be used as guidance and interpreted by the mentors for each
podling.

"These sort of metrics can be used to indicate health in this way or that"
- this is different from "these specific metrics must be met".

We can certainly articulate requirements but they should be more specific
to behaving in accordance to "the apache way" then dictating very specific
community decisions or milestones.

As mentor training, guidelines, etc - this is quite valuable and should
help in guiding podlings to graduation rather than deciding whether they
graduate or not.

thanks,

Re: Concerning Sentry: A disagreement over the Apache Way and graduation

2015-11-06 Thread larry mccay
Hi Rich -

I have read it and I think that it is really good.
My concern isn't with the document at all - I think that it would have been
great to have earlier.
IMHO, it should not be a measuring stick as much as a teaching tool.

Mentors helping podlings learn what is meant by The Apache Way and what
sorts of things can be seen in successful podlings and TLPs.

Once the mentors feel that a podling has achieved this understanding this
document doesn't really need to be used as criteria.
As soon as it does then the metrics begin to lose their meaning.

The concerns about adding of PPMC members began to feel like we were going
down that road even though that doesn't seem to be in the maturity model
explicitly. It just highlighted a concern that I have about such metrics.

I don't want to take away from the value of the maturity model and the work
that has been put into it in any way.
The 7 Habits of Successful Podlings really is a great idea and would make
an interesting article. :)

Thanks,

--larry

Re: [DISCUSS] Metron incubator proposal

2015-11-30 Thread larry mccay
This is an interesting proposal that seems would build a community where an
open one doesn't really exist at the moment.
A project like this needs a healthy community to survive and scale with the
pace of changes in attacks.
I for one would be interested in lending a hand as a contributor or
committer - if that would be welcomed.

Re: [VOTE] Release of Apache Tephra-0.14.0-incubating [rc1]

2018-05-24 Thread larry mccay
* built from source and ran all unit tests - over 1hr!
* checked LICENSE and NOTICE files
* Noticed things that others have already noted
* Noted that there is no CHANGES file in the release artifact - there is a
CHANGES.txt in
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/tephra/0.14.0-incubating-rc1/
but this is not
cumulative across releases which is what I would expect

Nothing that should block the release.

Haven't seen any additional movement on this thread.
Just curious whether anyone has considered a graduation into an existing
TLP like Spark which would be very appropriate.

Interesting and well stated post on the need for Livy here:

Re: [DISCUSS] Retire Livy podling

2022-10-06 Thread larry mccay
Folks,

As I mentioned in a previous thread [1], I would like to help avoid sending
a well regarded, actively consumed and mature product to the attic. There
have been discussions internally at my employer and we have also struggled
getting our contributions committed. The original group of committers seem
to have all moved on, and this is the core challenge for those that are
trying to contribute, but are not committers.  This doesn’t represent a
lack of interest in doing so and I think there are others in this position.

We are interested in trying to reboot with additional PPMC leadership and
investing in contributors that we would like to install as new committers.

I’d like to hear what the incubator would think about a Reproposal for the
Livy project that would be open to existing PMC members and committers as
well as new contributors with a vested interest in this project and the
health of its community.

How would we best propose such a thing here?

Thanks,

–larry

Re: [DISCUSS] Retire Livy podling

2022-10-07 Thread larry mccay
I was hoping that we could bring a set of contributors as:

* mentors - 1 or 2 plus whoever wants to remain
* PPMC/Committers - 2 or 3 plus whoever wants to remain
* election of a PPMC chair if needed

Also open it up for folks to ask to join (as well as go emeritus) as I know
there are others that have tried to contribute and have gotten know where
or have long since decided it wasn't worth trying anymore.

So, my thought was almost a new Proposal and solicitation for community
bootstrap with a few seeds planted to help it grow.
I was also considering a goal of getting it back off the ground with some
number of releases and proof of health as a project to fast track to a
graduation discussion.
A bit early to talk about that now but that was a detail that I thought
would possibly go into such a reboot proposal.

@Jean-Baptiste - we have compiled a list of features/improvements that we
would be able to bring to the table with the reboot as well.
These are improvements that have been made internally due the sense of not
being able to get them in. I lack the details around the attempts at this
time but we would be bringing source as well.
We could list these as part of the proposal/concrete plans.

If you think this proposal can be done more casually, that's fine too. I
just would like to make it clear that we would open it up to new folks as
well.

However you'd like to see it done, we can have concrete commitments to you
within a week or so more than likely.

BTW, I did note that Ambari was sent to the attic and then pulled back out
[1] back in June into July of this year.
I would hope that we could avoid the administrative headache that seems to
have been involved in that reinstatement.

Good to hear, Jean-Baptiste!
We will send the proposal both here and to the Livy private list, I guess.
Once we come to an agreement and direction we can share with the dev@ and
user@ lists.

Thanks again!

Exciting to see interest growing!
I think rather than try and gather all of these things now, we follow up
the proposal with a roadmap discussion.

Just as we often entertain new committers during the proposal consideration
we can do that then as well.
If you'd like to provide your names and affiliations here, I can add them
to the upcoming proposal.
If you'd like to wait to agree on the proposal first that would work too.

Again, very good to see traction building here!

I have a simplified proposal nearly ready to send. Since there weren't any
requirements for it provided here it is just declaring the intent and new
members from this thread and my employer.

If there is anything else you'd like to see in it just let me know.

Proposal to Revive Apache Livy Community

2022-10-14 Thread larry mccay
Abstract

Livy is a web service that exposes a REST interface for managing long
running Apache Spark contexts in your cluster. With Livy, new applications
can be built on top of Apache Spark that require fine grained interaction
with many Spark contexts [1].

While this project has been well regarded and used in many contexts as the
defacto standard API to Spark environments, it has been incubating for over
5 years without graduation to a TLP and it has become difficult to
impossible for fixes and improvements to be contributed as the current
community seems to have moved on.

There has been discussion regarding retirement of this podling where there
seems to be some increasing interest in joining and reviving the community
[2].

The intent of this proposal is to avoid retiring a well regarded, actively
used and rather mature project by reviving the PPMC and community with new
folks that have a vested interest in the project and health of the
community.
Proposal

We propose to revive the PPMC with a set of contributors and maintainers as
mentors, PPMC members and committers.

The retirement DISCUSS thread [2] has shown a growing interest in providing
new committers and bringing improvements and fixes from organization’s
internally maintained forks back to a revived community.

General Approach to Revival:

   -

   Add new Mentors
   -

  Larry McCay, lmc...@apache.org , Cloudera
  -

  Sunil Govindan, sun...@apache.org, Cloudera
  -

  Imran Rashid - iras...@apache.org, Cloudera



   -

   Add new Committers/PPMC
   -

  Larry McCay, lmc...@apache.org, Cloudera
  -

  Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli, vino...@cloudera.com, Cloudera
  -

  Gyorgy Gal, ggal ,gal.gyo...@gmail.com, Cloudera
  -

  Wing Yew Poon, wyp...@cloudera.com, Cloudera
  -

  Xilang Yan, xilang@gmail.com, Shopee
  -

  Jianzhen Wu, myjianz...@gmail.com, Shopee
  -

  Nagella Jagadeewara Rao, jnage...@visa.com, Visa
  -

  Pralab Kumar, pralk...@visa.com, Visa
  -

  Prasad Shrikant, shrikant@gmail.com, Visa
  -

  Brahma Reddy Battula, bra...@apache.org, Visa



   -

   Invite existing PPMC members to opt-in or otherwise go emeritus
   -

  Jean-Baptiste Onofré, jbono...@apache.org, Talend (opted-in via
  Retirement DISCUSS thread [2])



   -

   Invite existing Committers/PPMC members to opt-in or otherwise go
   emeritus



   -

   Establish Roadmap via follow up DISCUSS thread
   -

  Known Improvements from Forks which will need proposals and
  discussion:
  -

 Adding HA for Livy
 -

 Updating security capabilities (eg. kerberos for jdbc, fixing bugs
 in encryption)
 -

 Expanding the support for kubernetes
 -

 Responding to CVEs in dependencies (eg. log4j, thrift)
 -

 Livy rest cluster - IS THIS SAME AS HA for Livy ABOVE?
 -

 Support multi Spark versions
 -

 Implemented a metrics system for Livy
 -

 Support customize batch/interactive session lifecycle event
 handler, default log event with log4j, very helpful for
trouble shooting
 -

 Optimize log to track which session id the log message came from,
 also very helpful for trouble shooting
 -

 Support customize Spark config optimization rules, can be used to
 optimize config for users’ job
 -

 A set of command line tool which can be used to replace Spark’s
 spark-submit, pyspark, spark-sql but actually submit
application in Livy
 -

 We are planning to implement a JDBC state store, and allow multi
 Livy Thrift sessions to share one backend Spark application
in the next few
 months.
 -

  These items and others that are brought to community may need
  consolidation or multiple configurable options and will need to
be part of
  the discussion
  -

 One-pager Livy Improvement Proposals (LIP) may make sense to drive
 these discussions and convergence
 -

 Feature Branch Strategy for large changes
 -

Large features are hard to review we will need to define a
strategy
-

  Determine the Improvements to be delivered across first 3 Releases
  with Target Release Dates



   -

   Ensure CVE and Dependency management hygiene is in place


The above approach will usher the community back to an active status with a
Roadmap of 3 or more release plans and security hygiene in place.
Development Practices

The Livy project follows a review before commit philosophy. Every commit
automatically runs through the unit tests and generates coverage reports
presented as a pull request comment. Our experience with this process leads
us to believe that it helps ease new contributors into the project. They
get feedback quickly on common

Re: Proposal to Revive Apache Livy Community

2022-10-15 Thread larry mccay
Hi Justin -

Thanks for the feedback.
I can buy all of that other than the dev practices suggestion.
The project originally used RTC as per the original proposal and being a
more mature podling, I don't think we need to move that fast.
With new committers, it will also be good to ensure others are familiar
with the code going in.

For pulling in large features from forks, we can have feature branches that
are CTR and define merge criteria.

I believe that I was an IPMC member at some point and have been a mentor on
other podlings (still am???)  but maybe somehow that went away?
We would certainly welcome any other mentors as well.
JB is currently listed as a Mentor on the site - I added him as a committer.
@JB do you intend to be a Committer or Mentor going forward?

The proposal was sent to the d...@livy.incubator.org list as well in order
to get their thoughts.
There have also been public threads about retiring it where this has been
discussed as you know.
Do you have further suggestions for how to reach out and/or how long to
wait?

Thanks again!

I will ask in a separate thread, @Justin Mclean  -
thanks.
Adding JB adds another company and we are certainly open to anyone else
that would like to join as a mentor.
At the end of the day, the mentors are for instilling the Apache Way
knowledge and steering toward graduation.
I feel that this diversity, while nice to have, is less important than that
of the PPMC and committers for the long term health of the community.

We need to push this podling to graduation as quickly as possible since it
is rather mature and needs to get to the next level.

Again, any potential Mentors that would like to join are more than welcome.

Hi -

It has come to my attention that I don't seem to be an IPMC member
(anymore?) and I would like to officially Mentor the reboot of Livy.

thanks!

Sorry, I missed commenting on this:

"There is also no concept as an emeritus PPMC member at the ASF."

I assume that we can remove PPMC members that do not opt-in explicitly at
this point.
They will have every opportunity to rejoin.

Hi Madhawa -

That's awesome!
Are you already a member of IPMC?
If not, are you an ASF member?
If you are an ASF member you can request that you be added as an IPMC
member.

Can you provide your company affiliation for the proposal and preferred
email?

thanks!

Re: Proposal to Revive Apache Livy Community

2022-10-18 Thread larry mccay
Very good, here is the latest revision with updated Mentors.
Sunil and I have been added to the IPMC as well.
Welcome Madhawa and thanks for stepping up as a Mentor for Livy!

Abstract

Livy is a web service that exposes a REST interface for managing long
running Apache Spark contexts in your cluster. With Livy, new applications
can be built on top of Apache Spark that require fine grained interaction
with many Spark contexts [1].

While this project has been well regarded and used in many contexts as the
defacto standard API to Spark environments, it has been incubating for over
5 years without graduation to a TLP and it has become difficult to
impossible for fixes and improvements to be contributed as the current
community seems to have moved on.

There has been discussion regarding retirement of this podling where there
seems to be some increasing interest in joining and reviving the community
[2].

The intent of this proposal is to avoid retiring a well regarded, actively
used and rather mature project by reviving the PPMC and community with new
folks that have a vested interest in the project and health of the
community.
Proposal

We propose to revive the PPMC with a set of contributors and maintainers as
mentors, PPMC members and committers.

The retirement DISCUSS thread [2] has shown a growing interest in providing
new committers and bringing improvements and fixes from organization’s
internally maintained forks back to a revived community.

General Approach to Revival:

   -

   Add new Mentors
   -

  Larry McCay, lmc...@apache.org , Cloudera
  -

  Sunil Govindan, sun...@apache.org, Cloudera
  -

  Jean-Baptiste Onofré, jbono...@apache.org, Talend
  -

  Madhawa Gunasekara, madhaw...@gmail.com, Independent



   -

   Add new Committers/PPMC
   -

  Larry McCay, lmc...@apache.org, Cloudera
  -

  Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli, vino...@cloudera.com, Cloudera
  -

  Imran Rashid - iras...@apache.org, Cloudera
  -

  Gyorgy Gal, ggal ,gal.gyo...@gmail.com, Cloudera
  -

  Wing Yew Poon, wyp...@cloudera.com, Cloudera
  -

  -

  Jianzhen Wu, myjianz...@gmail.com, Shopee
  -

  Nagella Jagadeewara Rao, jnage...@visa.com, Visa
  -

  Pralab Kumar, pralk...@visa.com, Visa
  -

  Prasad Shrikant, shrikant@gmail.com, Visa
  -

  Brahma Reddy Battula, bra...@apache.org, Visa



   -

   Invite existing PPMC members to opt-in or otherwise go emeritus
   -

  Jean-Baptiste Onofré, jbono...@apache.org, Talend (opted-in via
  Retirement DISCUSS thread [2])



   -

   Invite existing Committers to opt-out or otherwise continue



   -

   Establish Roadmap via follow up DISCUSS thread
   -

  Known Improvements from Forks which will need proposals and
  discussion:
  -

 Adding HA for Livy
 -

 Updating security capabilities (eg. kerberos for jdbc, fixing bugs
 in encryption)
 -

 Expanding the support for kubernetes
 -

 Responding to CVEs in dependencies (eg. log4j, thrift)
 -

 Livy rest cluster - IS THIS SAME AS HA for Livy ABOVE?
 -

 Support multi Spark versions
 -

 Implemented a metrics system for Livy
 -

 Support customize batch/interactive session lifecycle event
 handler, default log event with log4j, very helpful for troubleshooting
 -

 Optimize log to track which session id the log message came from,
 also very helpful for troubleshooting
 -

 Support customize Spark config optimization rules, can be used to
 optimize config for users’ job
 -

 A set of command line tool which can be used to replace Spark’s
 spark-submit, pyspark, spark-sql but actually submit
application in Livy
 -

 We are planning to implement a JDBC state store, and allow multi
 Livy Thrift sessions to share one backend Spark application
in the next few
 months.
 -

  These items and others that are brought to community may need
  consolidation or multiple configurable options and will need to
be part of
  the discussion
  -

 One-pager Livy Improvement Proposals (LIP) may make sense to drive
 these discussions and convergence
 -

 Feature Branch Strategy for large changes
 -

Large features are hard to review we will need to define a
strategy
-

  Determine the Improvements to be delivered across first 3 Releases
  with Target Release Dates



   -

   Ensure CVE and Dependency management hygiene is in place


The above approach will usher the community back to an active status with a
Roadmap of 3 or more release plans and security hygiene in place.
Development Practices

The Livy project follows a review

Re: [DISCUSS] What to do with long incubating projects?

2022-10-18 Thread larry mccay
I've been wondering about this as well.
It seems that we can have a rather mature project still incubating after a
number of years.
We can have active consumers relying on it but the momentum of the original
project and maintainers waned.
Multiple external forks have been made with the inability to get
contributions accepted.

In the example of Livy, action was triggered by the threat of retirement.
We certainly need an earlier flag than this.

Perhaps a specific trigger in the board report reminder email for podlings
that are getting long in the tooth that they should include various metrics:

* Graduation Status
* Community issues for both users and maintainers
   - what are the barriers of entry for each - complexity in maintenance,
language use, continued relevance, etc
* Are there known forks with extensions that would have rather contributed
back?

Based on this, some intervention with new Mentor/s to assess and guide can
be advised?

Unfortunately, this would require some oversight from the IPMC to identify
these podlings before they get too far down the abandoned road.
Maybe this is a simple report to see how long they have been incubating
though?

Great, I'll move that forward.
That sounds like a NOTICE thread?

Hi Renat -

More active contributors/committers would be great!
Let's get the names before I craft the NOTICE to add new members email
later today.

If that isn't realistic then we can always add more after the fact as well.
That's what is great about re/building the community in the incubator!

thanks!

[NOTICE] Adding new PPMC and Committers to Apache Livy

2022-10-26 Thread larry mccay
Hi Incubator -

In an effort to revive the Livy podling [1], it is being proposed to adjust
the existing Livy PPMC by adding new members that plan to move the project
forward, remove members that have not opted back in and add a number of new
Mentors to the project.


The following lists of new contributors and roles represent those that have
explicitly expressed interest in doing so either by the original revival
Proposal [3] or the resulting email thread. It was suggested on the revival
proposal thread [3] that we provide the proposed list of changes to the
community here as notice and that if after 72 hrs there are no objections
an IPMC member would be able to make these changes.

Mentors

   -

   Larry McCay, lmc...@apache.org , Cloudera
   -

   Sunil Govindan, sun...@apache.org, Cloudera
   -

   Jean-Baptiste Onofré, jbono...@apache.org, Talend
   -

   Madhawa Gunasekara, madhaw...@gmail.com, Independent


PPMC

The following are new PPMC members and Committers to be added:

   -

   Larry McCay, lmc...@apache.org, Cloudera
   -

   Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli, vino...@cloudera.com, Cloudera
   -

   Imran Rashid - iras...@apache.org, Cloudera
   -

   Gyorgy Gal, ggal ,gal.gyo...@gmail.com, Cloudera
   -

   Wing Yew Poon, wyp...@cloudera.com, Cloudera
   -

   Xilang Yan, xilang@gmail.com, Shopee
   -

   Jianzhen Wu, myjianz...@gmail.com, Shopee
   -

   Nagella Jagadeewara Rao, jnage...@visa.com, Visa
   -

   Pralab Kumar, pralk...@visa.com, Visa
   -

   Prasad Shrikant, shrikant@gmail.com, Visa
   -

   Brahma Reddy Battula, bra...@apache.org, Visa


The following are existing PPMC members that have expressed interest in
remaining:

   -

   Jean-Baptiste Onofré, jbono...@apache.org, Talend (opted-in via
   Retirement DISCUSS thread [2])
   -

   Alex Bozart, ajboz...@us.ibm.com, IBM


Committers

   -

   Others have expressed interest in joining but did not get names prior to
   this notice. Will follow up after this initial set of changes.

Re: [NOTICE] Adding new PPMC and Committers to Apache Livy

2022-10-29 Thread larry mccay
All -

In preparing to add the members listed in this NOTICE, I came to realize
that we have a number of new contributors that are not existing committers
on other projects or that I can't find their account given their listed
name.

I intend to add all existing Apache committers from this list in this
thread within the next hour or so but will also follow up with the
individuals to formally invite them to the podling and start the process
for adding new accounts upon completion of the required ICLAs.

@Justin Mclean  - if you or anyone else has any
guidance on how to deal with this case please instruct me otherwise.

Those listed on the To: line, you will need to be added as committers
through the New Committer Process unless you are already one and I have
missed it.

Note that I will also be removing PPMC members that have not explicitly
opted back in. I will leave them as committers however.

thanks,

--larry

All -

I have sent a single invitation to all those on the to-list here to become
committers.
Follow the instructions for acceptance and filing your ICLA and userid
selection.

Please feel free to reply only to the priv...@livy.incubator.apache.org
list instead of reply-all with any questions.

Since we have already sent the notice, we will add you to the Livy podling
roster upon receipt of your ICLAs.

Hi Marco -

Sorry if it wasn't clear, anyone that was already a committer on any
project that expressed interest has already been added.
The invitations are only for the brand new committers.

You are already on the PPMC list.

Thank you for following up those, just in case!

thanks,

Please subscribe to the Livy lists as I plan to start DISCUSS threads on a
couple topics to help bootstrap.
We don't need to wait for everyone to be added to start the community

Re: [VOTE] Apache Tuweni graduation

2022-12-05 Thread larry mccay
I'm not so sure that I see this as a blocker for graduation.
There was enough consensus and testing to spin and publish 14 releases.
There has been healthy conversation about this very topic among the mentors
and contributors on the private list.

The nature of this project is that the consumption of these libraries are
going to get less traction while in incubation and a community may grow
larger as a TLP as confidence is instilled by that status.

The Tuweni community has demonstrated the ability to publish releases
within that Apache Way and guidelines, has welcomed new contributors, etc.
The long term success will require a larger active community but I don't
think that needs to block graduation as the incubation goals have been met.

My 2 cents.

Re: [VOTE] Apache Tuweni graduation

2022-12-07 Thread larry mccay
We have also recently seen long term incubating projects with considerable
adoption falter.
I consider the fact that they did not graduate early enough a contributing
factor here.

Nothing wrong with incubation but staying in the incubator and encountering
attrition is different from TLP
with some churn with new folks coming into an official TLP project while
others can fall off in a healthy way.

Again, having the community test and release 14 separate releases
demonstrates contributors in the community
even if they aren't all materially contributing code.

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache SDAP (incubating) 1.0.0-rc2

2022-12-30 Thread larry mccay
I wanted to lend a hand with the sdap 1.0.0 release review and wanted to
let you know that it seems a bit cumbersome to review.
Perhaps my experience with other projects is limited to similar
conventions, though.

The fact that the src artifacts aren't under a project specific root ended
up polluting my releases directory (where I review releases). This was my
fault for not noticing the missing root but clearly outside my
expectations.

I also notice that each of what I would expect to just be separate modules
have their own tar balls and even github mirrors which is also awkward for
how I expect to review things - though not technically related to typical
review requirements.

These may be seen as less relevant to the specific release at hand and more
for the overall project structure and conventions but they would certainly
help in reviewing.

I note that there are numerous files [1][2][3] and many more that may
require Apache License headers.

You can use something like the following in python files:
#
# Licensed to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) under one or more
# contributor license agreements.  See the NOTICE file distributed with
# this work for additional information regarding copyright ownership.
# The ASF licenses this file to You under the Apache License, Version 2.0

# distributed under the License is distributed on an "AS IS" BASIS,
# WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or implied.
# See the License for the specific language governing permissions and
# limitations under the License.
#

The NOTICE file has a copyright of 2017-2022 still and unless this goes out
in the next couple days that will be out of date.
Duplicate and separate files like NOTICE, LICENSE, DISCLAIMER access
ingester, nexus and nexusproto as well as CONTRIBUTING.md which is in 2 but
not the other point to some organization issues. There should be some
effort put in to possibly make these modules under a common project rather
than what seem like separate projects.

Some of the above make it pretty cumbersome to review even if not
technically blockers.
Addressing these sorts of things early will help contributors feel more
easily able to help out and can help build your community.
It will also help you get releases out easier.

Hope the above is useful for you.
Happy to see a release coming together for the SDAP community and
congratulate you on tackling this milestone!

It isn't clear to me that these should block your initial release - my vote
would be as follows:
-0 for my vote at this time.

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache SDAP (incubating) 1.0.0-rc2

2023-01-03 Thread larry mccay
"I would like to point out in regards to the missing ASF headers that the
links you provide are on a different branch than the one we built the
release from."

Apologies, I was jumping around between github repos and got confused.

That said, it seems to me that your release branch having the headers and
dev and/or master branches not having them may point to a dev/release flow
that may result in regressions. Perhaps you have a different Trunk or
whatever your main branch is though. In general, I would expect your main
branch to have a superset of the changes in your release branch.

Just to be sure, you don't intend to only license the release
branch's source as ASL, right?

Hi Justin -

Thanks for the review!

Given that this is the first release since the reboot of the community, I
am wondering whether these really have to be blockers.
We can file JIRAs for each of those issues and address them in the next
release.
These aren't regressions after all and there have been 7 or 8 releases
prior.

Thanks again!

@justin  - I've filed the following two JIRA to
address your reported issues for release 0.8.1, if you approve.
Waiting on the status of the category X binary license issues - I know
@dac...@apache.org  was tracking that down.

Okay. Last release was a different group of people. Doesn't seem terribly
reasonable but, @dac...@apache.org  - it seems that we
need to pull those JIRA into 0.8.0 and spin a new RC.

Can't we move the indicator to the About section where it says Mirror of

Extend that to include Under Incubation as well.
