Re: [VOTE] Release for Bigtop version 0.1.0-incubating
Just noticed that the README.md file contains the following: You can get in touch with us on the [user list](https://groups.google.com/a/cloudera.org/group/bigtop-user/topics) or [developer list](https://groups.google.com/a/cloudera.org/group/bigtop-dev/topics). This also needs to be fixed before release. Why is this not a .txt file?

I know there are some files without headers, but the ones I know of are that way because they're expected to be in certain formats, they don't allow comments, etc - these should only be Debian/RPM packaging files, unless I'm missing something. As to the package contents - as far as I can tell, everything is under bigtop-0.1.0-incubating. The contents there are the same as in SVN, same layout as in SVN, etc. The content under test is not yet being built/used, and may well be reorganized later, but it's all there. If there are any inconsistencies with what's in SVN, let me know and I'll check it out. Adding DISCLAIMER now. A.

Incubator Etch Receipts of ICLAs, CCLAs
I kindly request the current receipts of ICLAs, CCLAs and SGAs for the Apache Incubator Etch project from someone who are able to check the records in the private foundation repository. If this information is protected please send it to etch-priv...@incubator.apache.org I came to the project after it was established as an Incubator project and the prior parties missed to update the status page http://incubator.apache.org/projects/etch.html. Now I would like to verify that point and update the status page. The current list of mentors and project members are: Mentors cutting, yonik, dashorst, gmcdonald Committers dixson, gsandhir, jdecocq, manojganesan, rebarraz, sccomer, ypark, grandyho, fitzner Thanks a lot, Michael - To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
Re: Incubator Etch Receipts of ICLAs, CCLAs
I just forwarded a grep of iclas.txt for these accounts to private@. cclas.txt didn't have any mention of the account names, and grants.txt listed a svn entry for etch.

Perfect, thanks for this information Martijn. I will update the status page now and send an info mail to our dev list.

[ANNOUNCE] Apache Lucy (incubating) 0.2.1 released
Greetings, The Apache Lucy team is pleased to announce the release of version 0.2.1 from the Apache Incubator! Apache Lucy is full-text search engine library written in C and targeted at dynamic languages. For a list of issues resolved in this version, please see the release notes: http://www.apache.org/dist/incubator/lucy/CHANGES-0.2.1.txt The most recent release can be obtained from our download page: http://incubator.apache.org/lucy/download.html For general information on Apache Lucy, please visit the project website: http://incubator.apache.org/lucy/ Disclaimer: Apache Lucy is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Apache Incubator. Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.

Websites of retired podlings (was Re: Retired podlings with RW SVN access)

But I agree that a pseudo-active-project web site > is not the right sort of web presence. Yes, I also agree that a site which misleads visitors into thinking that a retired podling is active is not desirable. When a top-level project enters the Attic, its website gets updated to reflect the fact that it has been retired. For instance, all of Hivemind's web pages have a big red banner alerting visitors to the project's status: http://hivemind.apache.org/ http://hivemind.apache.org/download.html Provided that someone is willing to do that work, that there is zero ongoing maintenance burden, and that there are no practical or legal difficulties, I think something similar would also be OK for a retired podling -- however, that's not necessarily my preferred approach. Another option which might be cleaner and less burdensome to administer would be to create a boilerplate "Retired Podling" static html page which would replace the website for any podling which does not graduate. This page would give a brief explanation of the project's history and status and point at any remaining resources, such as read-only SVN if the podling completed a successful code grant. If there is interest in that idea, I volunteer to help create the template for the "Retired Podling" page. I have two objectives with this proposal. The first is practical: we should aid users who may come looking for a project to learn what happened to it with minimal effort. The other goal is to help podlings retire with dignity. Every software project has a life cycle, there are many reasons why a podling might not make it to graduation, and a lot may have been accomplished during an attempt at incubation. I think our default policy should be to recognize and celebrate the contributions that a podling's volunteers made while it was active.
