reckart opened a new issue, #41:
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-annotator-website/issues/41
⏱️ **Deadline: 07 Aug 2024**
--------------------
## Annotator
Annotator provides annotation enabling code for browsers, servers, and
humans.
Annotator has been incubating since 2016-08-30.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. Apache Annotator is unable to produce releases due to low activity
2. PMC is largely inactive
3. Motivation to contribute is low due to inability of producing enough
release votes
### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
See above. Unless there is interest by new people to join the project and
help getting out releases, IMHO it would make more sense to retire the podling,
fork it and release it without the three-vote hurdle.
### How has the community developed since the last report?
The community has not grown.
### How has the project developed since the last report?
Yarn has been dropped from the project in favor of npm. Since then, a number
of dependabot issues have piled up.
There have been a few mails regarding potentially adding support for the
[Highlight API](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Highlight)
instead of using `mark` elements (while keeking the elements as a fallback).
### How would you assess the podling's maturity?
Please feel free to add your own commentary.
- [x] Initial setup
- [x] Working towards first release
- [ ] Community building
- [ ] Nearing graduation
- [x] Other: it is so stable that it is probably ready for retirement ;)
### Date of last release:
2021-07-14 (0.2.0)
We tried to get out a 0.3.0 in May 2022, but it got stuck in the vote.
### When were the last committers or PPMC members elected?
@reckart was the last one to join in August 2022 (waving the flag).
### Have your mentors been helpful and responsive?
@BigBlueHat has prepared the last incubator report for this project and has
provided some guidance.
### Is the PPMC managing the podling's brand / trademarks?
Are 3rd parties respecting and correctly using the podlings
name and brand? If not what actions has the PPMC taken to
correct this? Has the VP, Brand approved the project name?
I don't know.
