## Description: The mission of Apache Traffic Control is the creation and maintenance of software related to building, monitoring, configuring, and provisioning a large scale content delivery network (CDN) ## Project Status: Current project status: At risk - see community health Issues for the board: No issues ## Membership Data: Apache Traffic Control was founded 2018-05-15 (6 years ago) There are currently 31 committers and 19 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 8:5. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members. Last addition was Steve Hamrick on 2023-02-07. - No new committers. Last addition was Abdulrahman Elawady on 2023-09-21. ## Project Activity: Traffic Control 8 was release on Jan 30, 2024. This included the following features: - Client Certificate Authentication for the control API - Origin connection count limitation - New Role based permissions to enable key rotation specific users - OAuth for user login to web portal There is no currently planned next release. As a community we'll be evaluating what the next steps are given the exit of many of the active contributors. ## Community Health: The Traffic Control community is currently in a state of flux. A large number of active contributors with a shared employer have recently stopped participation in the project. Since that time, the number of commits has dropped drastically (down 90%). However, we passed a Roll Call vote and were able to successfully vote on a release. This shows that we still have enough engagement from PMC members to stay as an active TLP project. We will now be discussing ways to refocus the project to better address the needs and goals of the active participants.

The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 8:5. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members. Last addition was Steve Hamrick on 2023-02-07. - Abdulrahman Elawady was added as committer on 2023-09-21 ## Project Activity: A release vote for Traffic Control 8.0.0 is currently open. Another RC will likely be coming next week. This release includes: - Update to new client API v5 - Many small bug fixes and enhancements ## Community Health: Community Health is currently good. Participation is also good - we sponsored a Google Summer of Code project this past summer, resulting in a new committer. This GSoC project also widened the number of caches Traffic Control integrates with. Velocity on traffic control is slowing somewhat (PRs merged down about 20% in the last quarter), partly because the project is reaching maturity and partly because some contributors are moving on to other projects.

## Community Health:
Community health is currently fair. The #traffic-control ASF Slack channel is
fairly active. Most day to day development discussion occurs within Github
Issues/PRs. We're also proud to be sponsoring our first Google Summer of Code
project this summer. Development is primarily occurring at one company,
although the user base is widespread. No undue influence, but if the primary
employer were to change directions the project's health would be at risk.

Last addition was Zach Hoffman on 2020-09-03. ## Project Activity: The community is working towards a new major release (6.0) scheduled for this summer. Some features are taking longer to complete, so the release date has been pushed back several times. For context, the last minor release was on May 17, 2021, and the last major release in January 2021. New features planned for 6.0 include: - Improved multi-user locking to prevent conflicting configuration deployments - Removing deprecated dependencies Riak and Goose - Rewriting/Refactoring a hard to maintain Perl deployment script into simpler individual Go tools - Removing old API routes that have more efficient replacements ## Community Health: Community health is currently good. Mailing lists are fairly quiet, but new users to Traffic Control often come to Slack for support. Over the last few months, we also migrated from a private Slack instance into the official Apache Slack to lower bar for entry to new users.

Last addition was Zach Hoffman on 2020-09-03. ## Project Activity: The community completed a minor 5.1 release (March 11, 2021) and a bug fix 5.1.1 release (April 1, 2021). Development is well underway for the 6.0 major release currently targeted to begin release candidates in July. The next release will include the replacement of an unmaintained dependency (Riak NoSQL DB) by Postgres, already a heavily used component of the project. The community also completed the long in-progress conversion of our perl based configuration application into a much more extensible and performant Go based application. In the last 3 months, we registered just under 200 new commits from 25 different contributors, many of which are not yet committers. ## Community Health: In the last 3 months, we added one new PMC member. The community is healthy. Overall the community remains healthy even though the majority of contributions are primarily coming from one company with a small number of contributions coming from others. We continue to see new users join our community and set up Traffic Control, however we still struggle to turn them into contributors. Finally, this is my first board report as PMC Chair. The community sends gratitude to Dave Neuman for guiding Traffic Control through its first three years.
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors heretofore appointed David Neuman (neuman) to the office of Vice President, Apache Traffic Control, and WHEREAS, the Board of Directors is in receipt of the resignation of David Neuman from the office of Vice President, Apache Traffic Control, and WHEREAS, the Project Management Committee of the Apache Traffic Control project has chosen by vote to recommend Eric Friedrich (friede) as the successor to the post; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that David Neuman is relieved and discharged from the duties and responsibilities of the office of Vice President, Apache Traffic Control, and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that Eric Friedrich be and hereby is appointed to the office of Vice President, Apache Traffic Control, to serve in accordance with and subject to the direction of the Board of Directors and the Bylaws of the Foundation until death, resignation, retirement, removal or disqualification, or until a successor is appointed. Special Order 7A, Change the Apache Traffic Control Project Chair, was approved by Unanimous Vote of the directors present.

Last addition was Zach Hoffman on 2020-09-03. ## Project Activity: The community worked hard to get our 4.1.1 and 5.0 release candidates tested and released. We had some discussion about our next release and decided we would try to do a quick 5.1 release to address a few minor bugs and then plan on a 6.0 release in the spring. Our Traffic Ops working groups spent a fair amount of time cleaning up old issues in Github which allowed us to get a good sense for things that we need to revisit and things that are no longer valid. We recently merged a PR to make ATC a go module. ## Community Health: Overall the community remains healthy even though the majority of contributions are primarily coming from one company with a small number of contributions coming from others. We continue to see new users join our community and set up Traffic Control, however we still struggle to turn them into contributors.

Both have release candidates available are close to be approved. Since we have a couple of releases in flight, and since we had ApacheCon in September, the project is currently very active. ## Community Health: We added a new committer, Zach Hoffman! We had a single day track as part of ApacheCon @ Home. By all accounts this was successful and the community was extremely excited that we were able to get together, even if it was remotely. We continue to see new users starting to use our project which is encouraging however, we are still figuring out how to get them to also be contributors.

This was our second release this year, which was a great accomplishment for the community. We are hoping to have our next release out before ApacheCon. We have scheduled a one day track for ApacheCon and the community is looking forward to it. The community is hopeful that we can get as much out of the online format as we do in person. ## Community Health: The community continues to be challenged in finding diversity, especially in terms of contributors. We continue to see new users joining the community and we are retaining the users we have, but it seems as if the types of users that are coming to the project are not the ones that contribute back. We continue to discuss ways that we can encourage more contribution for our user base. We still feel like we have a healthy community despite the continued lack of diversity.

This was a huge release for Traffic Control containing over a year's worth of development. The community is poised to release more often and as a result, a release for the 4.1 version of Traffic Control is already available for review. The community is starting to plan the 5.0 release, targeting the end of Q2 for our first release candidate. ## Community Health: The community continues to be challenged in finding diversity, especially in terms of contributors.

Our ATC Robots working group - designed to discuss ATC automation - had it's first meeting. The Traffic Control working group has been working on defining our 3.0 API which will be implemented in a future release. The working groups are doing a good job of following up on list after their meetings. ## Community Health: The communinity health is good. We seem to be getting a lot of good participations from new users which is encouraging even though it seems like most of them are just users and are not necessarily contributing code. We recognize that providing good feedback is valuable and we are happy to see more people active in our community.

This was a great experience for our community and something we look forward to doing again. Release Apache Traffic Control 3.0.2 to address a security issue. Released Apache Traffic Control 3.1.0 ## Community Health: The community is healthy! We have definitely seen the "post summit bump" where the community gets re-invested after a conference/summit that has lead us to having more contributions and activity on the mailing lists. We are starting to become more mature as a community by agreeing to get better at how we do releases and working towards a more consistent cadence.

Last addition was Derek Gelinas on 2019-03-17. - Jonathan Gray was added as committer on 2019-06-12 - Brennan Fieck was added as committer on 2019-07-26 ## Project Activity: - Planned a Content Delivery Track for ApacheCon NA - Agreed to do a 3.1 release before our next major release. This release will contain fixes for some regressions found in the 3.0.1 release as well as some key performance improvements made since the 3.0.1 release was made. - There has been a lot of discussion around a few new features, github milestones, and LTS for our releases - We have also agreed that it is time to start planning our next major release, but we haven't nailed down a scope yet. ## Community Health: The community is healthy. We have less commits and code contributors since our last report, but we have had an increase in issues closed. This is due to some of our key committers working on larger features and our community being focused on product stability over new features. We also switched to a squash and merge strategy for pull requests, which leads to less overall commits. We have had conversations with several new users which is encouraging for the overall diversity of our communities. We are looking forward to having to getting the community together at ApacheCon which always helps to inject enthusiasm into the project. See below for specifics on mailing list and github activity: - dev@trafficcontrol.apache.org had a 21% decrease in traffic in the past quarter (167 emails compared to 209) - 96 commits in the past quarter (-35% decrease) - 16 code contributors in the past quarter (-51% decrease) - 138 PRs opened on GitHub, past quarter (6% increase) - 113 PRs closed on GitHub, past quarter (-15% decrease) - 154 issues opened on GitHub, past quarter (31% increase) - 51 issues closed on GitHub, past quarter (8% increase)

- 95 subscribers (up 7 in the last 3 months)
- only 1 email sent over the last month (compared to 7 in the current
month prior)

using the users list.
- dev@trafficcontrol.apache.org:
- 93 subscribers (up 4 in the last 3 months)
- 77 emails sent to the list (up about 5% from the last month)
- issues@trafficcontrol.apache.org:
- 29 subscribers (up 0 in the last 3 months)
- > 1000 emails over the last month (actually a 1% decrease)
- This list is primarily automated emails from github so statistics are
not too interesting
- summits@trafficcontrol.apache.org:
- 6 subscribers (up 0 in the last 3 months)
- this list is meant for users to submit CFPs for summits, therefore it is
hardly used.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Enhance automation to make it easier to build, install, and configure each
component. 2. Improve documentation to ease ramp-up time for new community
members and make it easier for existing community members to find what they
are looking for. 3. Complete at least two releases without license issues.
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware
of?
None.
How has the community developed since the last report (October 2017)?
We held a fall summit in October in Atlanta. This summit was attended by over
20 participants from 5 different companies. The discussions were great and we
made sure to take any discussion that could potentially affect the community
to the mailing lists.
We cleaned up our mentors a bit by removing a few mentors who have asked to be
removed and/or have not contributed at all.
We have seen a few new users join our community, and our community has done a
good job of helping the new users get Traffic Control up and running.
The community has been working hard to get a new release out, which will be
Traffic Control 2.1.
How has the project developed since the last report?
Since the last report (October 2017), we have
* Merged 218 Pull Requests with 392 commits from 34 contributors
* Opened 135 Github issues
* Closed 70 Github issues
* 233 emails sent by 36 people on the dev@ list
* 25 emails sent by 12 people on the users@ list

We have started discussions about graduation and we all agree that we should
try to focus on graduating in 2018. As we see it, the biggest hurdles we
still face are: 1) Getting releases through the incubator without licensing
issues - we would like to be able to get at least two releases through without
licensing issues. 2) Removing dependencies with incompatible licenses;
specifically JSON.org and jdnssec
(https://github.com/dblacka/jdnssec-tools/blob/master/licenses/java-dnssec-tools-LICENSE.txt)
- our plan is to have these two mitigated by the end of Q1 2018.

Traffic Control allows you to build a large scale content delivery network using open source. Traffic Control has been incubating since 2016-07-12. Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation: 1. Get set up with all resources (git / mailing lists / JIRA / irc / etc) 2. Name search / name sign off 3. Prepare for next release under apache process 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? This is the first report, we are just getting started. How has the project developed since the last report? This is the first report, we are just getting started. ICLAs are done. Date of last release: We released 1.6.0 on 2016-07-29 under the old process, because the release process (candidates and votes) had already started before our official entry in the incubator. Our next release will be the first release where we will follow the Apache incubator process. When were the last committers or PMC members elected? 2016-07-12 - initial committer list.
