Tuweni

15 Feb 2023 ¶

Tuweni is a set of libraries and other tools to aid development of
blockchain and other decentralized software in Java and other JVM languages.

Tuweni has been incubating since 2019-03-25.

### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

 1. build community
 2. have several release managers
 3. build the PMC

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

 No particular issues.

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

 We have worked in earnest towards graduation, and have held discussions
 and votes on how we could go about this.

 Here is some of this preparation on
 https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/TUWENI/Graduation+preparation

 Unfortunately, we didn't meet the requirements for graduation at this
 time. The work continues.

Tuweni is a set of libraries and other tools to aid development of
blockchain and other decentralized software in Java and other JVM languages.

Tuweni has been incubating since 2019-03-25.

### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

 1. Getting the community informed about TLPs and charters
 2.
 3.

### 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?
 The community has been relatively quiet. One bug report made by an end
 user, and several patches came together to create a nice new release.

 We have had two threads on graduation on private list, and about to kick
 an official graduation vote on the dev list.

### How has the project developed since the last report?
 Some changes to the modules, specifically moving some code to Kotlin.

Tuweni has been incubating since 2019-03-25.

### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

 1. We need a functional PMC. It's not working right now.
 2. We need to educate devs and make sure we generate interest for them.
 3. We need to run some outreach to let the world know of this awesome
 project ;)

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

 No big problem. We started a vote for new committers and it completely
 stalled though, mostly
 because our PMC is not in order yet.

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

 We have had a few folks asking for releases and participating in our dev
 list.

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

 We have continued making some code changes and new features, and made a
 maintenance release.

 The project is under active development.

 We have added crucial features to the project such as an Ethereum Virtual
 Machine, a proxy subprotocol and a network crawler.

 We need to cut another release but keep pushing it back, too much work.

 We voted 1.3.0. 1.4.0 is under vote.
 We are working on a working Ethereum client now.

Tuweni is a set of libraries and other tools to aid development of
blockchain
and other decentralized software in Java and other JVM languages.

Tuweni has been incubating since 2019-03-25.

### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

 1. Make a first ASF release.
 2. Build a community of developers and implement project
 governance.
 3. Build a community of users around the project.

### Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
 Currently there are no issues that require the involvement of either the
 Incubator PMC or the ASF board.

### How has the community developed since the last report?
 This is the second month of the project incubation. The community is
 still low, even though a couple patches were given by external
 contributors.

 4 initial committers have not joined the PPMC yet by subscribing
 to the private list.

### How has the project developed since the last report?
 The project has attempted to make a release. The second release
 candidate went to a vote with the IPMC and was rejected.
 The committers are now working with the IPMC to make sure
 the NOTICE and LICENSE files are correct.

Apache Tuweni is a set of libraries and other tools to aid development of
blockchain and other decentralised software in Java and other JVM languages.

Apache Tuweni has been incubating since 2019-03-25.

Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

 1. Grow the community;
 2. Have the works of the project comply with legal requirements of the
 ASF;
 3. Consistently releasing products;

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

 Currently there are no issues that require the involvement of either the
 Incubator PMC or the ASF board.

How has the community developed since the last report?

 As this is the first full month of the project incubating the development
 of the community has been low.

 The project started out with onboarding all parties showing interest
 at the pre-incubation discussions in general@incubator.a.o.

 The project consists of a healthy number of mentors and committers/PPMC
 Members.

How has the project developed since the last report?

 All required INFRA services have been put in play to have the community
 collaborate.

 The project is working on getting more body to the whole set of
 information pages (website, wiki, etc.)

 The project is working on getting its first release product vetted and
 released, and is also working on getting the Incubator clutch details
 up to date.
