Long-term behavioural movements observed through data analysis.

  • πŸ“˜ Community and Governance Growth - Based on ten years of Incubator data (2016–2025), this guide highlights common patterns of healthy podling community and governance growth, contributor onboarding, governance maturity, and long-term sustainability. It distinguishes typical successful trajectories from struggling ones to help podlings, mentors, and IPMC reflect on community-building and governance practices.

  • πŸ“˜ Governance Patterns - Data-driven analysis (2015–2025) of incubator-general mailing list activity, releases, votes, and how governance load, release cadence, and participation diversity correlate with podling population and project health.

  • πŸ“˜ Incubator Discussion Trends - Analysis of a decade of topic shifts on the general@incubator.apache.org list.

  • πŸ“˜ IPMC Governance - A data-driven guide analysing how IPMC governance activity changes over time using incubator-general mailing list participation, showing how podling load shapes oversight concentration, continuity, renewal, and governance capacity.

  • πŸ“˜ Podling Governance Patterns - Analysis of ten years (2015–2025) of public-mailing-list data to surface common governance and release-behaviour patterns: distinguishing healthy podlings that graduate from those that stagnate and retire.
