Hi Benson,
I am attaching the report inline. Sorry for being late with this. The
person that usually does it has been on vacation and I couldn't find much
information on how to commit it myself. :(
Tashi originally encompassed just the tools to manage virtual machines
using Xen and QEMU, but has been merged with Zoni, which manages the
physical aspects of a cluster like power control, network settings and
handing out physical machines.
Activities from October to December:
In the period from October to December, the project did not ask to make
another incubating release, but is ready to start the process for a new
release incorporating the development efforts of the last 6 months.
This period was dedicated to testing and performance testing of the system.
Minor updates to the code include adding support for sub-domains within
Tashi.
Also some bug fixes to the recently imported code from a collaborator. Next
efforts will be to more tightly integrate the physical and virtual aspects
of
the system as well as create a front end UI.
The project has a user community, but it is small. Growth mostly has
happened by word of mouth. To show potential users at large the utility
of this project, the author of this report is creating web pages to
demonstrate how to accomplish distributed computing tasks. Base images
of (free) OS installs will be provided to allow new users to get started
quickly. Hopefully this will increase visibility of the project.
Items to be resolved before graduation:
* Generate more publicity for the project.
* Develop members of the user community to submit feature
extensions.
