WHEREAS, the Project Management Committee of the Apache Aurora project has chosen by vote to recommend moving the project to the Attic; and WHEREAS, the Board of Directors deems it no longer in the best interest of the Foundation to continue the Apache Aurora project due to inactivity; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Apache Aurora project is hereby terminated; and be it further RESOLVED, that the Attic PMC be and hereby is tasked with oversight over the software developed by the Apache Aurora Project; and be it further RESOLVED, that the office of "Vice President, Apache Aurora" is hereby terminated; and be it further RESOLVED, that the Apache Aurora PMC is hereby terminated. Special Order 7C, Terminate the Apache Aurora Project, was approved by Unanimous Vote of the directors present.
## Description: The mission of Aurora is the creation and maintenance of software related to Mesos framework for long-running services and cron jobs. ## Issues: There are no issues requiring board attention. ## Membership Data: Apache Aurora was founded 2015-03-17 (5 years ago) There are currently 23 committers and 22 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 1:1. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members. Last addition was Mauricio Garavaglia on 2019-07-29. - No new committers. Last addition was Mauricio Garavaglia on 2019-07-25. ## Project Activity: We're in the middle of releasing a new version of our software. The voting is currently open for the second RC for version 0.22.0 and only needs one more vote to meet quorum. Mauricio Garavaglia has proven to be a very valuable and very active addition to the PMC and has helped the project regain stability after the departure of many folks including our former chair. With his help, as the community health statistics show, we've been able to get more work done, more fixes, and even land some new features into the master branch. We will be looking to add more committers and possibly PMC members in the very near future. ## Community Health: dev@aurora.apache.org had a 50% increase in traffic in the past quarter (24 emails compared to 16) reviews@aurora.apache.org had a 53% increase in traffic in the past quarter (95 emails compared to 62) 17 commits in the past quarter (183% increase) 9 PRs closed on GitHub, past quarter (28% increase)
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors heretofore appointed Jake Farrell (jfarrell) to the office of Vice President, Apache Aurora, and WHEREAS, the Board of Directors is in receipt of a request from Apache Aurora to change their Vice President, and WHEREAS, the Project Management Committee of the Apache Aurora project has chosen by vote to recommend Renan DelValle (renan) as the successor to the post; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that Jake Farrell is relieved and discharged from the duties and responsibilities of the office of Vice President, Apache Aurora, and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that Renan DelValle be and hereby is appointed to the office of Vice President, Apache Aurora, 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 7D, Change the Apache Aurora Project Chair, was approved by Unanimous Vote of the directors present.
## Description: The mission of Aurora is the creation and maintenance of software related to Mesos framework for long-running services and cron jobs ## Issues: ## Membership Data: Apache Aurora was founded 2015-03-17 (4 years ago) There are currently 23 committers and 22 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 1:1. Community changes, past quarter: - Mauricio Garavaglia was added to the PMC on 2019-07-29 - Mauricio Garavaglia was added as committer on 2019-07-25 ## Project Activity: No recent releases. Last release on 2018-09-10. Planning for next release has begun and we hope to ship version 0.22.0 before the year ends. ## Community Health: We have experienced a small surge in activity thanks to new developers joining. The following metrics corroborate this increase in engagement: 9 PRs opened on GitHub, past quarter (900% increase) 7 PRs closed of GitHub, past quarter (700% increase) 6 commits in the past quarter (600% increase) reviews@aurora.apache.org had a 1300% increase in traffic in the past quarter (70 emails compared to 5) We hope the project is able to sustain this level of engagement as well as increasing the number of participants who are helping to maintain this project. Outside of a few members, responsiveness on the mailing list has decreased. We hope to re-engage folks as they see more activity happening on the project.
Stephan Erb (serb) submitted the following report: Dear Apache Board, The Apache Aurora project will not be able to deliver a board report as requested. We are currently not matching the required number of PMC members and don't have an active Chair. I have just raised this to the users and dev list to see if the community is willing to step up. I will inform the board if there are any updates.
## Description: Apache Aurora is a stateless and fault tolerant service scheduler used to schedule jobs onto Apache Mesos such as long-running services, cron jobs, and one off tasks. ## Issues The project might be heading towards the Apache Attic in the future, unless the community interest increases again. We will need advice on when and how we should make this transition. ## Health report The Apache Aurora project has seen a significant slowdown of user and contributor activity over the most recent months. This can partially be attributed to the overall stability and maturity of the project, but more importantly this is due to other external projects that managed to win the developer mindshare within the container orchestration field (e.g., general purpose cloud providers, Kubernetes, ...). ## PMC changes: - Currently 21 PMC members. - No new PMC members added in the last 3 months - Last PMC addition was Jordan Ly on Wed May 02 2018 ## Committer base changes: - Currently 22 committers. - No new committers added in the last 3 months - Last committer addition was Renan DelValle at Fri Jan 26 2018 Issue backlog status since last report: * 0 JIRA tickets created in the last 3 months * 0 JIRA tickets closed/resolved in the last 3 months Mailing list activity since last report: * @dev 9 messages (127 in previous quarter) * @user 2 messages (13 in previous quarter) * @reviews 22 messages (181 in previous quarter) * @issues 8 messages (15 in previous quarter) ## Releases: - Last release was 0.21.0 on Sun Sep 09 2018 ## Mailing list activity: Activity for this project is on a downward trajectory. As noted above, this project may be headed for the Attic if this trend continues. - dev@aurora.apache.org: - 152 subscribers (down -1 in the last 3 months): - 19 emails sent to list (90 in previous quarter) - announcements@aurora.apache.org: - 47 subscribers (up 1 in the last 3 months): - 0 emails sent to list (0 in previous quarter) - issues@aurora.apache.org: - 36 subscribers (down -1 in the last 3 months): - 0 emails sent to list (17 in previous quarter) - reviews@aurora.apache.org: - 31 subscribers (up 0 in the last 3 months): - 8 emails sent to list (146 in previous quarter) - user@aurora.apache.org: - 87 subscribers (up 1 in the last 3 months): - 1 emails sent to list (9 in previous quarter)
