    Comments:  I think SDAP is ready to graduate. In my opinion, a third
    release is not necessary for graduation. The low participation in the
    graduation  discussion is a little concerning, but not unexpected,
    because SDAP has never been very active on dev@.

      to make another release, with a different release manager, to prove
      that the process is reproducible, and to remove release exceptions
      in the WIP-DISCLAIMER. Also, there are several components, and not
      all have so far had a release.) After that release, SDAP is ready
      to graduate.

    Comments:
        * The initial draft of the report said that there has been a
        release, which highlights a mismatch between SDAP's and ASF's
        idea of a release; education is needed.
        * SDAP's number 1 problem is their use of dev@. There is activity
        in the project (including commit messages going to dev@) but questions
        asked on dev@ go unanswered, and therefore conversations don't
        happen. Even the report is drafted on private@ rather than dev@.
        I think I can work with SDAP and get them to graduate but only if
        they engage on dev@.
        * I have given notice that I will resign as a mentor by Dec 31st
        if I don't see activity, namely a plan to graduate, and activity
        to carry out that plan.

    Comments:  Looking good- this note is to the board are there any other
    Python first projects we can look to for guidance on Python releases. IF
    this project had versions, it would be v1+ as it is in prod at various US
    Government agencies.

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

 None.

### How has the community developed since the last report?

 Thomas Huang delivered a (virtual) keynote address at the 2020 ApacheCon
 @Home on 9/29 and discussed our creation of the Apache Science Data
 Analytics Platform (SDAP) as a professional open source Analytics Center
 Framework (ACF) and its growing list of NASA and international
 applications.

 The COVERAGE (CEOS Ocean Variables Enabling Research and Applications for
 GEO, https://coverage.ceos.org/technology/#software) development team at
 JPL completed an initial deployment of SDAP on European cloud platform,
 WEkEO (https://wekeo.eu/).  Paired with a previously deployed SDAP on
 Amazon Web Services (AWS), an objective of COVERAGE is to enable joint
 analytics leveraging geographically distributed SDAP installations that
 host distinct yet compatible American and European satellite-based and in
 situ ocean-related datasets.

 Additional deployments of SDAP that are currently being maintained:

  - NASA Estimating the Circulation and Climate of the Ocean (ECCO) (
  https://ecco-group.org)
  - NASA Gravity Recovery & Climate Experiment (GRACE) Follow-On (
  https://grace.jpl.nasa.gov)
  - NASA Sea Level Change Portal (https://sealevel.nasa.gov)

### How has the project developed since the last report?

 Three new features:
 - SDAP-292 Add Cassandra authentication support to delete_by_query.py
 script
 - SDAP-278 Cassandra authentication for webapp
 - SDAP-258 Update Deseason Algorithm to Use Precomputed Climatologies

 Two improvements:
 - SDAP-284 Collection Manager to support recursive directory structures
 - SDAP-285 Solr not indexing lat/lon

 Eight bug fixes:
 - SDAP-282 Support configuring dimension names and projection during
 ingestion
 - SDAP-291 netcdf parsing error with GMPE dataset in Granule Ingester
 - SDAP-280 Collection Manager should not block when checking ingestion
 history
 - SDAP-279 Collection Manager does not pick up fs events with NAS mount
 - SDAP-267 config operator, manage git url or branch update in the helm
 chart
 - SDAP-261 bug fixes for new ingestion system (granule ingestion &
 collection manager)
 - SDAP-277 Better error handling in Granule Ingester
 - SDAP-281 bigdata ingestion feedback (reading time)

 SDAP is still working towards its first release. Mentors have provided
 some suggestions that will be taken into consideration for the Java parts
 of the project, but the python release process also needs to be better
 understood.

 A new tool has been published that helps with reading the output produced

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be

  A member of the SDAP podling stepped up to the release manager role which
  is great. It shows the the podling is maturing.
  Unfortunately, the release candidate which was produced was not in
  compliance with the ASF release policy, thankfully Justin highlighted
  this and we are in the process of rolling the RC back. Lewis (SDAP
  champion) and the release manager are working to resolve this and get the
  first incubating release candidate finished.

How has the community developed since the last report?

  Two VOTE's have been made over on private@sdap regarding extending
  PPMC and Committership to two community contributors. This is very
  positive.

How has the project developed since the last report?

  SDAP is on the verge of it's first release. With some persistence
  the podling will have a release candidate for community VOTE soon.

        The number of developers on the dev list is small. A little too

 Added 2 new developers that are becoming familiar with the project and
 will soon become committers.
 SDAP has been heavily advertised at/in many Earth Science technology
 forums.
 SDAP was featured at the CUAHSI Biennial Colloquium with an aim towards
 growing the community.

How has the project developed since the last report?

 Development is still underway to push towards the first incubating
 release of SDAP and each of its subcomponents.

SDAP is an integrated data analytic center for Big Science problems.

SDAP has been incubating since 2017-10-22.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

 1. Grow community
 2. Make formal SDAP (Incubating) releases
 3. Evangelize SDAP as an integrated data analytic center for Big Science
problems

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?

No.

How has the community developed since the last report?

For the last quarter, again SDAP has been heavily advertised
at/in tons of Earth Science technology forums.
Members of SDAP team demonstrated the software at the ESIP
Summer 2018 meeting in Tucson, AZ with the aim of growing
community.

How has the project developed since the last report?

The project is around a month or so away from making it's first
Incubating release. Development is ongoing and positive.

How would you assess the podling's maturity?
Please feel free to add your own commentary.

How has the community developed since the last report?

SDAP has been heavily advertised at/in tons of Earth Science
technology forums. The SDAP community has plans to continue
in this thread with loads of activity booked over the summer
including for example, a workshop at the forthcoming ESIP
Summer 2018 meeting in Tucson, AZ
http://esipfed.org/meetings/upcoming-meetings/esip-summer-meeting-2018

How has the project developed since the last report?

Development is being sustained with initial discussion of an initial
Incubating release some time soon. The dev@ community has produced
documentation regarding release artifacts. The aim would be to have
a release candidate ready within the next month or so.

    Comments: SDAP is doing very well. Branding,
    trademarks, source code compliance are the
    primary issues blocking a release right now.

    Comments: SDAP is doing pretty well.
  Branding, trademarks and source code compliance are the primary issues
  right now. Once these are addressed SDAP can focus on the first Incubating
  release.
