In addition to the resolution to terminate the geode project, I think we should file a board report for this quarter with some more details. Here is a draft, let me know what you think.
## Description: The mission of Apache Geode is the creation and maintenance of software related to a data management platform that provides real-time, consistent access to data-intensive applications throughout widely distributed cloud architectures. ## Issues: The Geode project has voted to enter the attic, and there is a corresponding board resolution on the agenda. The two organizations sponsoring contributors have disengaged from the community, leaving the project without a critical mass to carry on. We tried to recruit some additional contributors and PMC members, but it looks like the PMC will not be able to muster a quorum of 3 members going forward. All but one of the existing PMC members are either inactive or will be leaving the project shortly. ## Membership Data: Apache Geode was founded 2016-11-15 (6 years ago) There are currently 116 committers and 35 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 8:3. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members. Last addition was Alexander Murmann on 2020-03-26. - Jakov Varenina was added as committer on 2022-10-10 - 19 PMC members have left since last quarter ## Project Activity: 1.15.1 was released on 2022-10-10. There have been no commits since October 10th. ## Community Health: With the exit of the two corporate sponsors there do not seem to be many active members left. We attempted to nominate three new PMC members but they declined. There was an offer to help with the project from one user in response to the attic vote, but even adding that user to the PMC would not have reached quorum for the project.
