Update IP clearance page

Hi all,

I've added a IP Clearance to SVN and updated the index.xml, how do I get it
to show up on the actual site [1]?

As far as I can tell I've followed the template and filled in everything
needed for this.

Thanks!

Sorry to hear about HISE

Dear Reader,

I am sorry to read about the retirement of HISE as a project.

The question now to subject matter experts, what to do now?

Is Apache ODE a good alternative? (Comparing Apples and Oranges perhaps).

The software we create depends greatly on the use of (Zend) PHP, and we are
in need of a component (service) to take care of (human) task handling.

While we seek to improve automation (system to system) tasks in the future,
the human part is important in a few months from now.

Love to hear about any suggestions towards this.

Kind regards,

Ing. Jack Put MBA

Unit Manager

[VOTE] Let the retired Zeta Components project keep their name

Hello,

Zeta Components has been retired and the committers want to go to
github with the project. They have requested to keep their name and
reached out for trademarks if this is possible. Shane explained he
would agree in this case if:

A) the IPMC confirms the podling is retired
B) the retirement guide has been fulfilled
C) the community clearly note on their homepage that they are not
longer associated with the ASF

We have a successful vote for A).
B) has been completed by me (pending some closing tasks from Infra)

Assuming C) will be done by the community this vote is now to allow
them to use their old name Zeta Components.

Please note, no release has happened so far.

Please choose:

[] +1, allow them to use Zeta Components as name
[] -1, don't, because

This vote is open for 72h.

Cheers
Christian

Zeta Components retirement

Hello all,

I just completed the retirement process. Some stuff is left for infra:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-4791

The Zeta Devs will come up here for a vote in a pretty short time.
Trademarks (Shane) has said, once the retirement is complete (and if
all devs agree to it) the guys can held some kind of a vote here to
keep their name.

Cheers
Christian

Hi,

Nice list of progress! Keep it up and you'll be graduating in no time.

Note that documentation, while it certainly helps, is not a graduation issue.

About community building, what's your current status in terms of
community activity and diversity?

Hi,

Thanks for the report, VCL! Sounds like you're doing fine.

Sounds great, good luck with the release.

I notice that your previous release was over a year ago, which
probably explains why this release is so big. Cutting releases more
frequently is a good way to make them more manageable, and doing so
also helps drive adoption as your reaction time to user needs (bug
fixes, improvements, etc.) becomes better.

Based on a quick look around I couldn't spot any obvious graduation
issues, so +1 to moving ahead unless the community or your mentors
feel otherwise.

Flex Status

I have reviewed the flex report and community and didn't find any major issues.  The small things I found are:

1) The report appears to be written by a single person 

2) This person appears to be disheartened a bit ("We expect the initial RC's to be rejected as we finalize
licensing and other policy issues").  I don't think the negativity belongs in the report.  This isn't a big
problem unless it is representative of the general community's state of mind, which I saw no evidence of in
my short scan of the mail list.

3) No mentors have signed off on the report

4) The mail list has been decreasing steadily since the beginning, but still well within normal levels IMO

Ambari Status

In reviewing the Amabari report, I have a couple of notes/concerns:

  * The community IMHO is in serious risk of failure to launch.  A recent code change has sparked project
interest, but list activity was non existent after January.  

   *As Ambari went nearly 2 months without a single e-mail to the list, I think an issue for graduation should be
added that the community must demonstrate viability for X more reporting periods (where x IMO is > 2).

   * The list of completed JIRA issues is not very telling of anything and might give the impression that the
community is more vibrant than it is

Also, I noticed that ddas signed off on it as a mentor.  I don't see him listed as an Apache member or IPMC member.
