Derby Q2 (April-June) 2005

Derby added Tomohito Nakayama as a new committer.
[Early Q3 note: two more committers were added and derby-dev is voting on another one.]

Plans were completed for a 10.1 incubator release and candidate jars were made available for testing and review. [Early Q3 note: the vote passed for the candidate and Andrew requested permission from [email protected] to make it available as an incubator release.]

The Derby community is thriving. http://people.apache.org/~coar/mlists.html#db.apache.org shows that the derby-dev list is up to 224 subscribers and derby-user up to 312 (both figures include digest subscribers).

There is heavy development activity on both the code front and the doc front.

Many code challenges are being worked on via the derby-dev list and the number of Derby developers working on Jira issues has increased to 34 (the number in the derby-developers Jira group).

One doc challenge is how to make a DITA stylesheet, which is under the CPL license, available on incubator.apache.org/derby to improve the format of the html documentation. A Derby mentor advised asking the author if he would be willing to license that particular file to the ASF under the Apache License. It turns out the DITA Toolkit team is interested in releasing the Toolkit itself under the Apache license. Hopefully all details will get worked out in Q3.
