This is a bit late so please review asap. Thanks! ## Description: Apache Geode provides a database-like consistency model, reliable transaction processing and a shared-nothing architecture to maintain very low latency performance with high concurrency processing.
## Issues: There are no issues requiring board attention at this time. ## Activity: - We held up releasing v1.7.0 in favor of fixing more bugs and making our tests more reliable. We closed out 40% of the open test bugs (out of 220) and removed the ‘FlakyTest’ category from 136 tests. - We integrated our pre-commit tests directly into GitHub PR checks. This makes it super easy for committers and contributors to run and review test results. - We’ve optimized test runtimes for pull requests to get results in less than an hour. If someone were to run the same tests on a laptop it would take over 18h. - We upgraded the project build tools to Gradle 4.9 in preparation for supporting Java 11. - We merged a contribution to add thread monitoring and take action if a thread appears to hang. - We discussed improvements to handling of the default SSL context. - We discussed improvements to allow customizable trust boundaries for securing OQL method invocations. - The Geode PMC discussed and approved a Geode session track at the SpringOnePlatform conference (see https://springoneplatform.io/2018/geode). - Community member Addison Huddy posted a series of seven (and counting) youtube videos on “Geode by Example”. ## Health report: - We’ve had a number of excellent contributions from new community members in the last three months. Although the PMC did not add any committers this quarter we should definitely review and discuss adding new committers soon. - By increasing test speed, reliability, and ease of access we have lowered the barriers for new contributions and community participation. ## PMC changes: - Currently 46 PMC members. - No new PMC members added in the last 3 months - Last PMC addition was Dick Cavender on Tue Feb 20 2018 ## Committer base changes: - Currently 87 committers. - No new committers added in the last 3 months - Last committer addition was Michael W. Dodge at Wed Jan 24 2018 ## Releases: - Last release was 1.6.0 on Fri May 04 2018 ## Mailing list activity: Mailing lists have remained active and have maintained consistent usage levels. - dev@geode.apache.org: - 183 subscribers (up 0 in the last 3 months): - 683 emails sent to list (793 in previous quarter) - iss...@geode.apache.org: - 54 subscribers (up 0 in the last 3 months): - 2991 emails sent to list (6890 in previous quarter) - u...@geode.apache.org: - 242 subscribers (down -9 in the last 3 months): - 141 emails sent to list (148 in previous quarter) ## JIRA activity: - 349 JIRA tickets created in the last 3 months - 330 JIRA tickets closed/resolved in the last 3 months Anthony On Thu, Jul 26, 2018 at 1:52 PM Dave Barnes <dbar...@pivotal.io> wrote: > > ...and just between you and me, if people knew how easy is to generate this > report using the template, they wouldn't be so reluctant to put forth a > little effort on behalf of this great project :).
