Dave Fisher: I see no relevant email from the dev team on dev@ or private@
since March. There is activity on commits@ from git activity which means
work is being done. I think that there should be discussion about the
trademark issues on private@ along with a Podling Suitable Name Search.

Weex has been incubating since 2016-11-30.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. A clear roadmap and corresponding project management, which should all
be public and transparent to the community
2. Committers & PPMC members should be more activate and response in time
when dealing with Email, Github Issue/Pull request
3. More activate committers & PPMC members outside Alibaba Group.
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
The development of Weex is based on the Weex Github Repo, but none of the
PPMC members have maintainer or administration privilege on the
repo (https://github.com/apache/incubator-weex), which makes it time
costing or impossible to add Webhook、PR Review Rules, etc. as INFRA member
might response to a JIRA issue several days or weeks later.
How has the community developed since the last report?
New Committer: Qianyuan Wang(wqyfavor) and Douma Fang
75 Github issues solved/closed since last report, 56 issues still open.

Weex is a framework for building high-performance mobile apps with modern web development experience. Weex has been incubating since 2016-11-30. Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation: 1. Propose more open discussions in the mailing list, improve the activity. 2. Establish a regular release schedule and a clear roadmap. 3. Develop more committers and PPMCs, stay focused on the community. Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware of? Apologize for missing the last podling report. The main reason for it is the PPMC and committers does not pay enough attention in the mailing list. We have realized this mistake and decide to take more efforts on building the community. Here are some actions: 1. Hold meetings regularly among core contributors of Weex and publish the summary to the mailing list. 2. Take turns on duty for each release and podling reports. How has the community developed since the last report? * Released a new version (v0.19.0) of Weex. https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/3e7bfe9e3f79a8d4b46dbe668bfb559e4e539 bd7c5f4143107e6af00@%3Cgeneral.incubator.apache.org%3E * Hold a meetup in Shanghai at 2018-09-15, discussed technologies about the new render pipeline and interactive experience of Weex. * Migrate the source code from (git-wip-us.apache.org) to (gitbox.apache.org) and enabled the issue panel on the GitHub. How has the project developed since the last report? * In average, more than 10 PRs or commits were merged to the main branch each week. The Github repository now has 162 contributors (8 new since the last report) and 1451 forks (130 new). * Weex has developed a new render pipeline and used it in production, but it still needs more improvement. * A more CSS-friendly Weex Renderer is under discussing, it can fix many cross-platform inconsistency problems.

The community is still learning the Apache Way, we are making progress and
need more guidance from Mentors. An additional active Mentor would be good.
How has the community developed since the last report?
• We voted one new committer: wentao shi
• We have encouraged people to discuss more in the JIRA and dev mailing list.
There is an obvious growth. 186(110 new issues since the last report) issues
have been reported on JIRA, and 93(56 since the last report) of them are
resolved or closed. And for dev@ mailing list, more discussions were made
in the past quarter. Some of the discussions are about important decisions
such as Community building roadmaps, whether to use Github issues, how to
develop plugins conveniently, how to replace Facebook/Yoga, whether to
create a project channel, etc. More and more non-alibaba and non-Chinese
guys were participating in the discussions.
• More non-alibaba developers are using Weex and reporting issues, including
developers from Tencent, Geekbang, SNDA, etc.
• Our Github repo has growth in contributors (135), forks (974), watchers
(377) and stars (7108)
• WebSite Trends Month Active, PV(440482), UV(68347), IP(59082), New Unique
Visitor(36063) , Session(114824)
How has the project developed since the last report?
• We have seperated the code for ducumentation & website from main repo to
weex-incubator-site, which will be easier to contribute.
• 9 authors have pushed 36 commits to master and 36 commits to all branches.
The community are intentionally making the committing work more slow and
deliberate.
• Replacing Facebook's Yoga is nearly done.

Comments: The community still learning the Apache Way. Also we have to work on the diversity.
But we make progress. An additional active Mentor would be good.
Weex is a framework for building Mobile cross-platform high performance UI.
Weex has been incubating since 2016-11-30.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Move the whole workflow and infra into Apache (not the codebase only).
2. Develop more contributors and committers.
3. First Release while in Incubator.
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
We are worried that only 1 mentor is actively helping us, as this will put
more burden on the rest of the Incubator to approve our releases.
Especially, most of active committers are not good at dealing with
license-related problem.
How has the community developed since the last report?
* We voted in 3 new committer:TianYi Ma, Tancy and HaiBo Song.
* There are 90+ new forks and 700+ new stars since last report.
* We have encouraged people to discuss more in the JIRA and dev
mail list. Up to now, 30 issues are reported on JIRA and 25 of them
are resovled.
* We have redirect github's mails to the commits mail list to have a
clear overview of our activity in the dev mail list.
How has the project developed since the last report?
* We are trying to release 0.12 this month. Both two RCs were failed due
to the license issue. This is major issue of project.

Comments: Technical development and sheer momentum is still very high,
and no concerns in that area. The move of GitHUb notifications to
commits@ makes dev@ a more pleasant space. But I still have concerns that
a lot of discussions of what to do happens in office or other channels.

Comments: The Shepherd's comments fully resonate with how I feel. The
progress in 'getting it' is slow, and I have also asked privately how
people know what to work on, as I suspect that this is happening at
work, conf calls, or other means. I have been considering asking the
IPMC to put the code repository in read-only to get people to wake up.
There is a release attempt going on right now, and that has triggered a
little bit more open communications, but it is far from acceptable. Dev
work is remarkably strong, but community development is weak, which I
see as signs of a corporate-driven project.
IPMC/Shepherd notes:
ptgoetz: The Weex community has shown some friction against adopting the
Apache Way. Luckily there is one highly engaged mentor very actively
nudging the community in the right direction. My concern is that
other mentors have not engaged (no sign-offs to date), and if the
primary mentor disappears for any length of time it could pose a
problem. I'd like to see at least one more engaged mentor for a
podling trying to develop its initial Apache "sea legs."
johndament: The amount of private list email vs dev list email is a bit
concerning. Niclas has been doing a great job helping the
podling move along, but without major changes I suspect
it will be difficult for them to progress forward.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Weex codebase has been migrated to Apache git repo.
2. Weex website has been deployed to https://weex.incubator.apache.org/ in gitpubsub way.
3. Made some guide for users and developers to Apache.

No
How has the community developed since the last report?
* Just a beginning in Apache.
* 71 stars and 14 forks in our new Apache repo in GitHub.
* Notice: We have stopped committing code to the old repo since Feb 24 2017
but there are still a lot of activities which need to be migrated here.
How has the project developed since the last report?
* Weex codebase has been migrated to Apache git repo.
* Travis-ci enabled for our new repo above.
* Weex website has been deployed to https://weex.incubator.apache.org/ in

Comments:
The project from a technical point of view is doing well. I am trying
to get the participants really grok TheApacheWay, as there is still too
much "corporate think" in the project, and things are done seemingly
randomly. The GitHub workflow is also something that I worry about,
since it makes the mailing list look like a commit log and not really a
community discussion forum. There is some who listens and trying to get
their colleagues to understand. This doesn't seem to be a language
(Chinese) issue as much as a GitHub culture issue. These guys love
GitHub issues and pull requests. But I am hopeful we will get there.

This is our first report. Weex community is really excited about joining
Apache community and getting organized. Most of us are newbie of
international open source community, Thanks everybody in ASF for your
patience and encouragement.
Most notable progress this first month;
1. 7 members of Weex team have submitted ICLAs.
2. SGA & CCLA have been signed and have been mailed to secretary, of ASF.
3. Project maillist & JIRA have been activated & we have volunteer JIRA
administrator. Our setup issue on JIRA[1]
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
* Code repository need be set up.
How has the community developed since the last report?
* Weex Github star number was reached 10k on December 21.
How has the project developed since the last report?
Since our Apache code repository haven’t been setup, the project have not
been developed in Apache Way yet. But our pre-Apache development process
are ongoing. Several bugs have been fixed and some new features have been
added (detail of information [2]). We will migrate code to Apache repo as
soon as possible.

Shepherd/Mentor notes:
Niclas Hedhman:
The development on the previous GitHub project is progressing at high
speed. But we have an understanding that moving to ASF repos is of the
highest importance for the next month.
