| Flex |
| |
| Apache Flex is an application framework for easily building Flash-based |
| applications for mobile devices, the browser and desktop. |
| |
| Date of entry to the Incubator: December 31, 2011 |
| |
| Top three items to resolve before graduation: |
| Flex has their graduation resolution on the agenda for the December board meeting. |
| |
| Is there anything that the Incubator PMC or ASF Board specifically needs |
| to address? |
| Only the graduation resolution. |
| |
| Are there any legal, infrastructure, cross-project or personal issues that |
| need to be addressed? (Are there any stumbling blocks that impede the podling?) |
| The Flex community really wants to move from SVN to Git/GitHub. We are eager to see |
| Infra fully support read/write Git repos. |
| |
| Also, we are still waiting for INFRA-4380 (import the old Flex JIRA data) to |
| be resolved. |
| |
| Check that the project's Incubation Status file up to date. |
| |
| http://incubator.apache.org/projects/flex |
| |
| What has been done (releases, milestones, etc.) since the last report? |
| -We approved 6 new committers |
| -We released Apache Flex SDK Installer 1.0.9-incubating. |
| -Adobe Systems Inc. donated both the Falcon compiler and the FalconJS |
| cross-compiler. |
| -Christopher Dutz donated Maven support tools for Flex |
| -We voted to graduate. |
| -We started work on a next-generation of Flex designed to target browsers |
| and devices without Flash. |
| |
| What are the plans and expectations for the next period? |
| |
| -Go through the transition to being a TLP |
| -Continue with the next-generation Flex work |
| -Release several bug-fixes and new locales in the current Flex code base. |
| |
| Are there any recommendations for how incubation could run more smoothly |
| for you? |
| No. We thank you for your support. |

| Flex |
| |
| Apache Flex is an application framework for easily building Flash-based |
| applications for mobile devices, the browser and desktop. |
| |
| Summary: A large community is waiting to see if committer activity will increase |
| and starting to think about graduating. |
| |
| Date of entry to the Incubator: December 31, 2011 |
| |
| Top three items to resolve before graduation: |
| |
| - Get better at resolving issues the Apache Way |
| - Get more initial committers to commit something |
| - Make another release with more non-Adobe involvement |
| |
| Is there anything that the Incubator PMC or ASF Board specifically needs |
| to address? |
| |
| There was discussion about letting Flex graduate with the requirement that |
| one or two mentors remain on the PMC. |
| |
| Are there any legal, infrastructure, cross-project or personal issues that |
| need to be addressed? (Are there any stumbling blocks that impede the podling?) |
| |
| The issue regarding the import of attachments for existing |
| JIRA bugs remains open (INFRA-4380). It is not critical, but it would be |
| nice to get this resolved soon. |
| |
| The PPMC has voted to move from SVN to Git. Having Apache approve read/write |
| Git repositories would be helpful. |
| |
| Check that the project's Incubation Status file up to date. |
| |
| http://incubator.apache.org/projects/flex |
| |
| What has been done (releases, milestones, etc.) since the last report? |
| |
| - We released Apache Flex 4.8.0 (incubating). |
| |
| - OmPrakash Muppirala and Erik de Bruin were added as a committer and |
| PPMC member due to their work on the installer. Peter Ent and |
| Gordon Smith from Adobe were also added as committers as they are |
| shepherding large donations from Adobe. |
| |
| - Adobe completed the trademark donation. |
| |
| - Adobe donated the Text Layout Framework, the rest of the Mustella |
| test suite and signed off on the Falcon compiler donation. |
| |
| - OmPrakash Muppirala has been leading the development of a tool that |
| allows IDEs like Adobe Flash Builder to work better with Apache Flex |
| releases. Justin McLean, Stephen Downs, Roland Zwaga, Tomasz Maciag, |
| and Erik de Bruin have also contributed to the tool. |
| |
| - We have accepted several patches from the community to address issues |
| with our test suite. |
| |
| - After much discussion, we voted to move from SVN to Git and employ |
| something known as the Git Branching Model. |
| |
| What are the plans and expectations for the next period? |
| |
| - We hope to finalize the release of the installer. |
| |
| - Adobe will submit the Falcon compiler source |
| |
| - We will get the test suite stable on Mac desktops and then on Windows |
| and mobile configurations. This should remove the last excuse for |
| committers who are afraid to make changes without a validation suite |
| |
| - We hope to complete the transition from SVN to Git. |
| |
| Are there any recommendations for how incubation could run more smoothly |
| for you? |
| |
| Our mentors continue to be very helpful. |

| Flex |
| |
| Apache Flex is an application framework for easily building Flash-based |
| applications for mobile devices, the browser and desktop. |
| |
| Summary: A large community is losing momentum as it waits for Adobe to |
| complete the source code transition and infrastructure. |
| |
| Date of entry to the Incubator: December 31, 2011 |
| |
| Top three items to resolve before graduation: |
| |
| - Resolve trademark donation or licensing |
| - Complete code and bug database donation |
| - Make at least one release |
| |
| Is there anything that the Incubator PMC or ASF Board specifically needs |
| to address? |
| |
| The ASF legal team will have to agree to a custom Trademark licensing. |
| Adobe submitted an initial proposal for the agreement at the end of May. |
| |
| Are there any legal, infrastructure, cross-project or personal issues that |
| need to be addressed? (Are there any stumbling blocks that impede the podling?) |
| |
| Besides the trademark issue mentioned previously, the import of existing |
| JIRA bugs is blocked by an issue with Apache JIRA's import utility (INFRA-4380). |
| We just got news that this should now be resolved, the PPMC is testing |
| the results of the import before activating it. |
| |
| Check that the project's Incubation Status file up to date. |
| |
| http://incubator.apache.org/projects/flex |
| |
| What has been done (releases, milestones, etc.) since the last report? |
| |
| - Carol Frampton is the release manager for our first release and has |
| prepared some initial release candidates. We are continuing to refine |
| the release candidates to respond to various licensing and policy issues. |
| - Christophe Herreman was added as a committer and PPMC member due to his |
| offering patches for issues with the release candidates. |
| - OmPrakash Muppirala has been leading the development of a tool that |
| allows IDEs like Adobe Flash Builder to work better with Apache Flex |
| releases. Justin McLean, Stephen Downs, Roland Zwaga, and Tomasz Maciag |
| have also contributed to the tool. |
| |
| What are the plans and expectations for the next period? |
| |
| Adobe expects to complete the transfer of the mustella test suite. |
| We hope to get an initial release approved by IPMC. |

| Are there any recommendations for how incubation could run more smoothly |
| for you? |
| |
| Our mentors continue to be very helpful. |
| |
| See May 2012 report for other concerns related to JIRA and svn imports, |
| but as mentioned above it looks like the JIRA import problems are fixed |
| now. |

| Flex |
| |
| Apache Flex is an application framework for easily building Flash-based |
| applications for mobile devices, the browser and desktop. |
| |
| Summary: A highly energetic community waits for Adobe to complete the |
| source code transition and infrastructure. |
| |
| Date of entry to the Incubator: December 31, 2011 |
| |
| Top three items to resolve before graduation: |
| |
| 1. Resolve trademark donation or licensing |
| 2. Complete code and bug database donation |
| 3. Make at least one release |
| |
| Is there anything that the Incubator PMC or ASF Board specifically needs |
| to address? |
| |
| The ASF legal team may have to agree to a custom Trademark licensing. |
| Adobe is currently evaluating the parameters of a custom Trademark license |
| proposed by an ASF Board member. If approved, a custom agreement will be |
| drafted and signed by both parties. |
| |
| Are there any legal, infrastructure, cross-project or personal issues that |
| need to be addressed? (Are there any stumbling blocks that impede the podling?) |
| |
| Besides the trademark issue mentioned previously, the import of existing |
| JIRA bugs is blocked by an issue with Apache JIRA's import utility. It has |
| failed to import the data file supplied by Adobe. Infra is supposed to |
| open a support ticket with Atlassian. |
| |
| Check that the project's Incubation Status file up to date. |
| |
| http://incubator.apache.org/projects/flex |
| |
| What has been done (releases, milestones, etc.) since the last report? |
| |
| - An initial set of Flex source (base framework code), including history, |
| was checked into the trunk area of the podling’s Subversion repository. |
| - Other initial committers have donated code to the whiteboard. |
| - Updates to the podling's wiki including a getting started area for |
| reference to new project members. |
| - Justin Mclean was accepted as committer to the podling. |
| |
| What are the plans and expectations for the next period? |
| |
| Adobe expects to complete the transfer of the bug database. Adobe also |
| hopes to contribute the compiler and test suite as well. And there is hope |
| for an initial release. |
| |
| Are there any recommendations for how incubation could run more smoothly |
| for you? |
| |
| Incubation has been working well. Our mentors are great. |

| Flex |
| |
| Apache Flex is an application framework for easily building Flash-based |
| applications for mobile devices, the browser and desktop. |
| |
| Summary: A highly energetic community waits for Adobe to transition code |
| and infrastructure. |
| |
| Date of entry to the Incubator: December 31, 2011 |
| |
| Top four items to resolve before graduation: |
| |
| 1. Resolve trademark donation or licensing |
| 2. Complete code and bug database donation |
| 3. Make at least one release |
| 4. Add new committers |
| |
| Is there anything that the Incubator PMC or ASF Board specifically needs |
| to address? |
| |
| The ASF legal team will have to work with Adobe on the Trademark |
| licensing issue. Adobe legal is still drafting the proposal before |
| presenting to Apache. |
| |
| Are there any legal, infrastructure, cross-project or personal issues that |
| need to be addressed? (Are there any stumbling blocks that impede the podling?) |
| |
| Besides the trademark issue mentioned previously, the code donation and |
| bug database donation are being slowed by infrastructure issues at both |
| Adobe and Apache, mainly the lack of ways to easily transfer multi-GB files. |
| |
| Check that the project's Incubation Status file up to date. |
| |
| http://incubator.apache.org/projects/flex |
| |
| What has been done (releases, milestones, etc.) since the last report? |
| |
| - An initial set of Flex source (minus Subversion history) was checked into |
| the whiteboard area of the podling’s Subversion repository. |
| - Other initial committers have donated code to the whiteboard. |
| - A logo contest was held. Over 50 entries were submitted. |
| - The mailing lists were established. Over 200 people joined in the |
| first 30 days and the traffic averaged over 100 emails a day. It has |
| quieted down now that the logo contest has concluded. |
| |
| What are the plans and expectations for the next period? |
| |
| Adobe expects to complete the transfer of the bug database and the initial |
| set of code with history. Adobe also hopes to contribute the compiler and |
| test suite as well. And there is hope for an initial release. |
