 any Apache Bigtop (incubating) releases on which members have voted on?

I can see anybody looking at that URL location believing that you're

If you're using a different definition of distributing, then we need
to resolve that situation. I see lots of ASF software being
distributed via that URL.

 And again, Apache releases are what people vote on. not the convenience
 artefacts which are there for convenience and are not voted on. So I
 still don't see any reason to not withdraw your -1 since your only issue
 seems to be related to the dependencies in the convenience artefacts
 (which is standard practice, even within Apache Hadoop)

It is true that votes only apply to Bigtop releases and not those
artifacts under bigtop-0.3.0-incubating/repos/.

It is also true that (in normal PMC operation) it is not possible to
veto a release. I have no strong opinion, but would believe the that a
podling can also make a release with three IPMC +1 votes (and, again,
vetoes do not apply). Note: IPMC votes, not PPMC votes. If somebody
raises a -1, then I suspect getting those IPMC votes might be
difficult until the concern is discussed.

Regarding the release artifacts: I don't have any strong opinions
right now. I can see the confusion with them all in the same location.
I can also see that Infra should probably get involved in some way to
deal with mirroring issues and to somehow distinguish, verify, and

I don't think I am using a different definition of distributing. But I
would like to stress out that I make a clear distinction between what is
distributed as part of an Apache release and what is distributed as part
of a convenience artefact.
Here is a quote from Owen: I'm strictly -1
on releasing any version of Bigtop with Hue or any other non-Apache
software as part of the release.
And we truly do not include anything else then Apache Bigtop
(incubating) in Apache Bigtop (incubating) releases. And as far as I can
tell, the issue Owen is having is related to convenience artefacts, not
releases.


We use these upstream projects as dependencies. We don't distribute
directly other software in the convenience artefacts of Apache Bigtop
(incubating).
The output of Apache Bigtop (incubating) can be quite unusual since it
is a deployable production quality big data stack. So we need to
consider the project as a whole, not just one single part.
The release provides the recipes to enable you to build and/or customize
such a stack. These recipes include the recipes to build packages,
virtual machines, integration, performance and validation tests as well
as recipes (puppet recipes) to deploy such stack.
But we also provide a validated stack as convenience artefacts.

 And again, Apache releases are what people vote on. not the convenience
 artefacts which are there for convenience and are not voted on. So I
 still don't see any reason to not withdraw your -1 since your only issue
 seems to be related to the dependencies in the convenience artefacts
 (which is standard practice, even within Apache Hadoop)
 
 It is true that votes only apply to Bigtop releases and not those

 It is also true that (in normal PMC operation) it is not possible to

 ...
 


What confuses me the most, is that Owen's issue is with the convenience
artefacts, not with the release itself. So there is no real reason to -1
releases if they are not the issue.
And if I understand correctly from what you are saying, there is really
nothing preventing us from continuing, providing the Apache Bigtop
(incubating) community is in agreement (ie. enough +1 on tickets and
enough +1 from IPMC members for releases). Although I would rather end
up with everyone agreeing.

But in the worst case scenario, we can always stop publishing
convenience artefacts as part of Apache releases, and host these
convenience artefacts outside of the Apache Infrastructure as
contributors and bypass all these concerns.


Note also that Infra has already been involved.

Bruno

Agreed. There *is* a distinction.

My point was that placing them both in the same directory (URL;
whatever) makes it *appear* they are combined. And based on that
appearance, people are (empirically demonstrated) getting confused.

But stepping back a little bit. You are distributing two things:

1) Apache Bigtop (incubating)
2) Convenience artifacts

Do you agree with that?

 Here is a quote from Owen: I'm strictly -1
 on releasing any version of Bigtop with Hue or any other non-Apache
 software as part of the release.
 And we truly do not include anything else then Apache Bigtop
 (incubating) in Apache Bigtop (incubating) releases. And as far as I can

Fine. Relax. So he misspoke in one single sentence. It happens. Move
on, already.

I will offer a piece of advice here: if you ever write an email with
somebody's name in it, then please step back and reconsider. A
technical/procedural/whatever discussion *does not* require people's
names to be productive. Speak to the issue at hand, the problem being
raised, the disconnect that has occurred. Continuing to bring Owen's
name into this discussion is a complete distraction.

In short: omit names. It really helps.

 We use these upstream projects as dependencies. We don't distribute
 directly other software in the convenience artefacts of Apache Bigtop
 (incubating).

You distribute *some* software. I don't know that it matters what that
software is, but simply the fact that you're distributing two things:
Bigtop, and other stuff. If you agree with that, then let's talk
about people's concerns with the other stuff part.

(I don't think anybody has raised any issue with the Apache Bigtop
(incubating) part of the release, so assuming that's true, let's just
please drop that part, stop harping on it, and move on to the relevant
part of the discussion)

...
 It is true that votes only apply to Bigtop releases and not those
 artifacts under bigtop-0.3.0-incubating/repos/.

 It is also true that (in normal PMC operation) it is not possible to

 What confuses me the most, is that Owen's issue is with the convenience
 artefacts, not with the release itself. So there is no real reason to -1
 releases if they are not the issue.

Whatever. Let's assume he misspoke and restart the conversation
instead of rehashing this over and over. Let's not try and state what
he should or should not do, and whether he has any real reason to do
so.

 And if I understand correctly from what you are saying, there is really
 nothing preventing us from continuing, providing the Apache Bigtop

Hue is Apache licensed, so that isn't an issue. The issue is that
Bigtop is planning on distributing non-Apache software for the primary
purpose of providing it to their users. It seems to me pretty
fundamental that Apache projects should only distribute Apache
software except as a dependency. Bigtop is only including Hue to
provide it to their users with no dependency at all.

It would be great if Cloudera were to contribute Hue to Apache. Unless
they do, I really don't think it is appropriate for us to distribute
standalone binary packages of their project from Apache's servers.

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache Mesos 0.9.0-incubating (RC5)

2012-05-08 Thread Matthias Wessendorf
Hi,

not that I want to (immediately) become a mentor here, but I am happy
to oversee future release votes,
and see if the community needs some other guidance etc.

 Ideally each podling should have at least three active mentors who can
 make sure that the required threshold of at least three PMC votes for
 a release is reached.

 If that's not the case (as it sounds like), there are a few options:

 * Ask help from other IPMC members to review the particular release
 candidate. If you're otherwise doing fine, this should be an OK
 workaround until you graduate.

 * Find one or more new mentors to replace inactive ones. Based on past
 experience this can be a bit difficult, but definitely worth a try.

 * If the above solutions fail, i.e. the Incubator PMC is unable to
 provide the help and oversight you deserve, we can also promote
 deserving PPMC members to the IPMC so that they have binding vote on
 things like releases. This works, but since that's more or less
 equivalent to saying that at least a part of the PPMC is already able
 to oversee itself, so one could well argue that a better solution
 would be to simply let the podling graduate.

 None of these solutions are really ideal, which is why I'm really
 hoping to find better ways for us to proactively identify and find
 solutions  to cases where a podling no longer has enough active
 mentors. Unfortunately that won't help with the pressing matter of
 your release vote.

 Any IPMC members around who'd be willing to lend Mesos a hand and
 review this release candidate? Unless anyone beats me to it (please
 do! :-), I'll take care of it later in the weekend.

AMBER Status: let down by incubator?

2012-05-08 Thread Ross Gardler
As a shepherd I just reviewed the Amber project. In my opinion this
project has been badly let down by the incubation process.

Here are my notes from the review:

Blocked from graduation by IP signoff from University of
Newcastle. Report asks for guidance. Why are mentors not providing
this? The projet has, IMHO, been unnecessarily blocked by this since
October 2010.

Legal JIRA raised on 30/4/2011 at
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-134 - looks like it will
be resolved soon but mentors should have provided this advice 18 months ago.

Useful summary of timeline and status at

 What does it take to get a product into the Bigtop stack?

Two things are needed for a component to be proposed for
addition to Bigtop:
   * The license has to be AL
   * There has to be a champion for it

After that there's a vote by the community to include a component
into the next release (whatever that may be). Bigtop follow a rigid
date-drive quarterly release model and we vote on Bills Of Materials
(BOMs) for every new release that we are about to work on.

Finally, the work that is required for inclusion consists of:
   * providing packaging for the component on all supported platforms
   * providing deployment code for the component
   * providing smoke test code for the component

One that patch including all 3 of the above is posted on a JIRA,
+1ed and committed the component is considered to be part of
the Bigtop. We do not have a notion of maintainers. Once something
is added to Bigtop it is everybody's responsibility to maintain it.

 I don't see any legal problems, but is vendor neutrality an issue here?

At this point I'm slightly confused as to what this thread is actually
trying to accomplish. I thought the original intent was to:
   * screen for potential legal issues
   * help incubator mentors understand Bigtop

I believe we've accomplished both. To the best of our collective
knowledge there are no legal issues with adding Hue to Bigtop
and it feels like the mission and charter of Bigtop is now well
understood.

Is there anything else left to be discussed?

Thanks,
Roman.

I don't think there's an issue to be resolved, but rather an awareness in
the Bigtop community that given the size of our releases we have to
be very proactive about coordinating them with the Apache Infra team.

Bigtop community and its release managers are well aware of that and
are very sensitive to making INFRA's job easier. We will definitely not

Droids status (Was: [Incubator Wiki] Update of May2012 by RichardFrovarp)

2012-05-08 Thread Jukka Zitting
Hi,

Thanks for the report, Droids!

On Tue, May 1, 2012 at 3:53 PM, Apache Wiki wikidi...@apache.org wrote:
 + Droids is an Incubator project arrived from Apache Labs. Droids entered
 + incubation on October, 2008.

That's 3.5 years of incubation, and unfortunately it looks like
community activity has yet to bounce back to the levels before the
drop I noted already in February.

What's your plan towards graduation? Any concrete actions you're
taking to increase community activity? Any blockers or problems you're
facing? How about a new release, a blog post, or something similar to
help drive interest?

I'm hoping that with the new committer (great!) you'll have a chance
to revitalize the project, but unless we start seeing some more
positive developments by the next report I think we need to start
considering alternative exit strategies for Droids. Incubation is not
meant to last indefinitely.

Is there any way that the greater Incubator or ComDev community could
help push things forward for Droids?

BR,

Is projects.mdtext something a graduating project needs to update?

I'm happy to do it for Jena -
it's not in

so it hasn't been done so far.

Anywhere else need doing?

I'm wondering if Droids could graduate to commons.apache.org - it
seems to be one of these projects that's useful, but on which people
typically work on an off depending on their needs, so it's hard to

 I am going to send a [CANCEL] reply to this thread, remove Nexus staging
 repo and SVN tag, fix everything and start again the release process for

 Regards.





 The NOTICE file is very long; I suspect that not all of the entries are
 *required*.


 The LICENSE and NOTICE files were written against the parent POM: all the
 dependencies with scope != test were considered, then.

 The NL files must relate to what is actually included in the archive.


 We release sources, so making a distinction between scope != test
 dependencies and scope=test dependencies does not make sense, AFAICT. If we
 use a 3rd party product to test Syncope, then I think we must refer their
 licenses in NOTICE and LICENSE.

No, AIUI the NL files only relate to what is being released, not any
external dependencies.


 For example, cglib is available under AL 2.0, so I don't think it needs
 to
 be mentioned in the NOTICE file.


 All the AL 2.0 dependencies not from ASF were added anyway to the LICENSE
 and NOTICE files; we preferred to have these two files with the same
 entries, even though for different purposes.

 The NOTICE file has a specific purpose; it should *only* contain
 required notices.


 The best would be to check the 3rd product licenses to see if they require
 you to add the licenses.

Yes.

 But as we are not lawyers, and sometime Licenses
 are written in a way that only a couple of judges plus the suprem court can
 understand what is in it, I'd suggest that if you have a doubt, just include
 them.

The NOTICE file should only include *required* notices.

If in doubt, ask on legal-discuss or via the legal JIRA.

 In any case, as soon as the required notes are in the NOTICE file, it should
 not be a blocker.

It's important not to include extra stuff in the NOTICE file, because
that can place additional burdens on downstream consumers.

 Seeing INFRA-4767 ...

 Need to update the website

 1) List of VPs
 Also, if a VP position changes, please update the web-site file at:

 http://www.apache.org/foundation/index.html

 using the CMS application, or update:


 https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/infrastructure/site/trunk/content/foundation/index.mdtext

 2) Index of TLPs


 https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/infrastructure/site/trunk/templates/blocks/projects.mdtext


 Is projects.mdtext something a graduating project needs to update?

Yes, once the TLP.apache.org website is available.

 I'm happy to do it for Jena -
 it's not in
  http://i.a.o/guides/graduation.html#notes-on-hand-over
 so it hasn't been done so far.

 Anywhere else need doing?

DOAP file needs creating and adding to the list [1]
If you already have one it will need updating, and files.xml updated
with the new location.

The PMC chair should have sufficient karma to update that.

Re: Airavata status (Was: [Incubator Wiki] Update of May2012 by SureshMarru)

 Hi,
 
 Thanks for the great report, Airavata! Sounds like you're doing fine.
 
 Based on your report I still classified Airavata as lacking enough
 diversity to graduate in near future, but I'm looking forward to
 hearing about new committers or other community developments already
 in your next report. Also, it'll be interesting to hear about how the
 GSoC program works for you with so many students participating.
 
 And of course congrats on getting the first release out!

Thanks for taking time to review. Yes we are very much looking forwarding to 
broadening the community. As you pointed out, waiting to see how GSoC students 
fare up. We have a diverse user base but the developer community is little 
focused now. Ross  Chris have been actively mentoring the project helping us 
in the right direction. Big thanks to Ate in mentoring on legal requirements. 
We had the first release out and hoping that will  stir some more momentum.  We 
have seen some sporadic interests from community and we need to encourage that 
into more contributions [1] [2] [3] [4] [5].

Just to clarify: if we literally speak, the committers have currently diverse 
affiliations. Indiana University  - 8 (Lahiru Gunathilake, Suresh Marru, Marlon 
Pierce, Thilina Gunaratne, Raminderjeet Singh, Barbara Hallock, Heshan 
Suriyaarachchi, Saminda Wijeratne) ; Lanka Software Foundation - 2 (Srinath 
Perera, Wathsala Vithanage); IBM - 1 (Aleksander Slominski); Chase - 1 (Archit 
Kulshrestha); Knight Capital (Chathura Herath), NexTag - 2 (Eran Chinthaka, 
Patanachai Tangchaisin). But practically speaking all active contributions are 
centered. Not just for graduation, but to let the software evolve with 
different use cases, we want to pro-actively encourage diverse participation. 
We hope to have few new committers come onboard before next report.

Cheers,
Suresh
