[DISCUSS] Graduate Apache Hop (Incubating) as a TLP
Do I get it correctly that the announcements on the users and dev lists are mainly advice for future releases? There's not a lot we can do about previous releases at this point, there doesn't seem to be any documentation about release announcements, and this feedback was never brought up when we went through the release process for the (4!) releases we did. Regarding Ricardo Gouvea as a PMC member who currently is not a committer: Sebbs feedback conflicts with the advice from our mentor Julian.

They may not be subscribed to the general announce list.
[VOTE] Release Apache Hop (incubating) 0.99-rc1
As you know, originally there were essentially 2 different options for us during this incubation when dealing with the existing codebase: 1) Get the code donated, granted, however you want to call it. Unfortunately nobody could be found to even decide on this issue for all sorts of reasons that are not very positive but recognizable when original developers stop working on the codebase (fired, left, ...). 2) Perform a substantial amount of changes to the original codebase.

Understood. I'll remove the code. It's probably better to use a parser library from a project like Apache Calcite anyway.

[VOTE] Release Apache Hop (incubating) 0.99-rc1
Just a final note on the "foreign code" problem. It's literally impossible to now simply include anything from the original source code. The codebase and API of Apace Hop have drifted so far away from where we once were that for new feature requests (like for example the recent addition of Parquet File Input/Ouput transforms) it's simply useless to even look at any existing code. It's just faster to write new functionality, also because the API is much simpler and cleaner now.

Well Justin, these files are typically generated by our software. It would not be OK to force the license into all files since that wouldn't be appropriate and right since we don't force Apache copyright on the work of others. Without that possibility we're down to manually editing the files every time they are created or modified in the slightest. I don't see that as a valid option. So I guess those are good reasons why. That evaluation was made before.

After thinking about it some more I really believe strongly that our developers should have an easy time adding more integration tests. It's really critical to our project in the longer term. Manually editing XML files to copy/paste an ASF header in there can not be part of that experience. It's simply out of the question. I don't see the same requirement for other Apache projects that have .avro or .parquet files as part of their test-suites.

Let's set the past aside for a moment. The last thing I want is to make this in any way personal. I have nothing but appreciation for everything you've all done for our project. So what this comes down to is that we need to engineer our way out of the fact that Hop pipeline and workflow files (.hpl/.hwf) are both user and developer generated. We also have plans to move from XML to JSON (or other file formats) in the (near) future.

We see integration tests as an even more important and integral part of the source code compared to unit tests since they offer so much more value in ensuring that functionality and compatibility remain the same when we push our software forward. It gives us the freedom to continue progressing in a safe way. That is why I think that splitting these tests off into another repository is a bad idea and the same goes for documentation and the samples really.

[DISCUSS] Hop proposal
Hi Jean-Baptiste, Enterprise Integration such as Camel does is a bit of a Hop "blind spot" so it would be very interesting indeed to integrate Camel in Hop. Our architecture certainly allows it since Hop is very much a metadata editor. NiFi is (as far as I can tell) more tied to its own data processing logic.

Hi, Interesting proposal, and happy to help if needed. By the way, did you evaluate the potential relationship with Camel or NIFI (and what’s the pros/cons if it’s possible to compare with) ?

Politics is all that stands in the way of democratizing analytics Following the whole ‘BI for the masses’ movement, today’s buzz is all about democratizing analytics – giving everyone from Alice in the mailroom to Joe CEO the tools to make data-informed decisions. It’s a lively debate. Entrepreneurial types insist that it’s a ‘do or die’ imperative while the more cautious amongst us liken it to running with scissors.
