Incubator PMC report for January 2022

The Apache Incubator is the entry path into the ASF for projects and codebases wishing to become part of the Foundation's efforts. There are presently 37 podlings incubating. In December, podlings executed 8 distinct releases. We added no new IPMC members, and none retired. There where 2 IP clearances. A couple of new podlings are under discussion, and HugeGraph will be joining the Incubator. Hop graduated last month.

A couple of podlings are heading towards graduation in the next few months. This month we were missing reports from BlueMarlin, EventMesh, Hivemall, Livy, MXNet, SDAP, SeaTunnel, Spot, Training and they will be asked to report next month. January is typically a month we get several missing reports due to holidays. Hivemall, Livy, SDAP, Spot and Training have failed to report several times in a row, a role call or other appropriate action will be taken, including suggesting (in some cases), they should retire from the Incubator. Spot did respond to its role call, and showed interest in continuing. It does at least have 3 active PMC members but little or no activity.

Discussion around Age graduating suggested it was a little too early. They needed to correct several minor things, including considering a wider group of committers and lowering their committer bar. The PMC composition required a little work as well.

A discussion on bringing log 4j 1.x to the Incubator took place, and it was decided that the Incubator was not the right place for this project. As usual, most discussions on the mailing list were on graduations, releases, and new project proposals.

Milagro has been incubating since 2015-12-21.

Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

1. Continue to build relevant and useful crypto libraries and applications for decentralized networks in order to grow the ecosystem of users and contributors to the project.
2. Continue to improve compliance with the Apache Way. In particular to update the Milagro website and other project sites (e.g. Whimsy) in accordance with Apache policies.
3. Further releases to increase the scope of the Milagro project, extend the capability of existing releases and to demonstrate improved compliance with the Apache Way.

Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?  

Administrative tasks are still outstanding due to members' other commitments and the pandemic. These include in particular, a PPMC meeting to discuss the project roadmap needs to be arranged, old releases need to be deleted, confirmation that the project's Whimsy, Clutch, SVN, Confluence & Committers pages are all current, and the code signing keys needs countersigning. Investigations into a redirect on Milagro's home page and an XSS vulnerability on the Decentralized Trust Authority's Swagger page are ongoing.
