Wink

What the board has decided about this committee or office, and the reports it filed, most recent first. Generated from the published minutes.

These categorised views are best effort. They are read from the published minutes by a program, and what it can attribute to a committee depends on how each resolution happens to be worded — so a page may be incomplete, and nothing here overrides the minutes themselves. The raw minutes are the source of truth.

Please note. The board approves the minutes of a meeting at the meeting after it, and they are published then - so the most recent meeting is not usually here. ASF Members can read the draft in the board's own repository until it is.

Community:
The Wink project is a mature project with a small community which
is currently not very active. Although I believe Wink is a mature project with
active users.

The probe to check how many active PMC members sent to the private PMC list
had response from two of the PMC members, with partial support for retirement.

https://s.apache.org/pmc-probe-2016

Based on this, I have started a discussion on 'what's next' with the larger
wink community:

https://s.apache.org/wink-whats-next

We have also started discussions on removing the dependency on json.org with a
member of the community volunteering to handle the work. After that is
completed the community will need to prepare a new release.

runtime which can leverage certain components of the server-side

Community:
The Wink project has a mature project with small community which is
currently not very active. Although I believe Wink is a mature project
with active users, the overall PMC has been alive but not active, and
on the last time I ask, they were starting to contemplate  a move
to attic. Although they have expressed that willingness, nothing have
been done on that direction and the community seems to still be taking
care of the current code, as we just receive a security patch on the past
couple weeks. Maybe I could try a new release (1.4.1) with the recent
security fix to see if we would generate any community traction.

Last svn activity shows a security fix provided by a user the past week
(03/2016)

has really been successful, the project continues to be a in a state where
it’s a mature project with steady but low user questions/answers on the
mailing list and a patch here and there. I believe Wink is a mature project
with active users and we should not consider any retirement actions at the
moment. Last svn activity shows most recent patch applied in march 2015.

Development list traffic and discussions are steadily, but low. Users
have been helping each other with questions and suggestions.

The community has concluded the graduation vote, and we are waiting
for the name search jira to get closed by the Trademark PMC so that
we can start an IPMC vote.

Activities since last report period :

  - Apache Wink 1.2.1 completed.
  - Michael Fiedler voted as new Apache Wink committer

Planned Activity:

  - Start graduation process in IPMC once name search jira is closed.

Development list traffic and discussions are steadily, but low. We noticed a
little increase on the traffic with some users starting to provide patches and
request for a new release, which the community have started working on.

We are having a second discussion around project status
(http://s.apache.org/5h1) and one option that was brought up was the
possibility of graduating as a sub-project of a TLP that have dependencies
on Wink (e.g. Geronimo and/or Tuscany). The community thinks that we will
have a better understanding of the direction we want to take by the next
report (in three months).

Activities since last report period :

- Apache Wink 1.2 release being finalized in the project mailing list.
- Website being migrated to Apache CMS and taking in consideration
  trademark requirements
- Raymond Feng being recommended as a new PMC member

Planned Activity:

- Continue discussion around project future

Top issues before graduation:

- Increase the size/diversity of the active dev community

has started some discussion on picking up the JAX-RS 2.0 draft specs and
start working/prototyping on this, but activity has not increased yet.

The community has also discussed graduation, and worked on various graduation
process tasks, but the talks had halted as one member has not agreed to
proceed with graduation while the activity on the project is slow.

Planned Activity:

- Start prototyping on JAX-RS 2.0 draft specs
- Work towards graduation.

Apache Wink is a project that enables development and consumption of
REST style web services. The core server runtime is based on the
JAX-RS (JSR 311) standard. The project also introduces a client
runtime which can leverage certain components of the server-side
runtime. Apache Wink will deliver component technology that can be
easily integrated into a variety of environments.

Apache Wink has been incubating since 2009-05-27.

Notable Activity:

* Released Apache Wink 1.1.2 since last report.
* Minor bug fixes.
* Most people were on vacation or had work related priorities to take
care of over the past 2 months.

Planned Activity:

* More Java EE 6 integration
* JAX-RS 2.0 is starting up in the JCP.  May attempt to
prototype/develop against the next specification to provide an
eventual JAX-RS 2.0 compliant runtime.
