+1. The community and product growth over the past year have been impressive and I am excited to see the future growth.

Especially, now that we have v0.6.0 out (which took a lot of extra attention and cleaned up a lot of pending issues) and with the upcoming release of v0.7.0. The latter release will add a significant amount of new functionality. This makes me confident that the project will be able to move forward a lot more smoothly. +1 John On 2021/12/02 01:39:41 Josh Innis wrote: > This project has seen incredible growth from when it was originally donated > to Apache.
