> Calcite community, > > Please review the draft report for the board meeting on Wed Oct 19th. > > Julian > > —— > > > > Attachment L: Report from the Apache Calcite Project [Julian Hyde] > > ## Description: > > Apache Calcite is a highly customizable framework for parsing and > planning queries on data in a wide variety of formats. It allows > database-like access, and in particular a SQL interface and advanced > query optimization, for data not residing in a traditional database. > > Avatica is a sub-module within Calcite, and provides a framework for > building local and remote JDBC and ODBC database drivers. Since March > 2016, Avatica has an independent release schedule, but resides in the > same git repository. > > ## Issues: > > - There are no issues requiring board attention at this time. > > ## Activity: > > Calcite became a top-level project exactly one year ago. On > graduation, the community decided not to adopt bylaws, but to have a > "state of the project" discussion each year, and to rotate the PMC > chair yearly if possible. We have been having this discussion, and > there seems to be consensus on a candidate for PMC chair. > > Feedback during the discussion included: > * Satisfaction with the pace of the project, and its ablity to "fan > out" to cover diverse areas of interest (some of practical use to > production systems, some of them more experimental); > * A sense that Avatica is still doing OK as a sub-project (that is, it > is not yet time to consider TLP status), but needs to be factored > into its own git repo; > * A thirst for documentation to make it easier for casual users to use > Calcite. > > Development and mailing list activity is steady for both Calcite and > its Avatica sub-project. There has been one release of Calcite, with > another currently under vote, and no releases of Avatica. > > Julian Hyde gave a talk at FlinkForward (Berlin). > > ## Health report: > > Activity levels on mailing lists, git and JIRA are normal for both > Calcite and Avatica. > > ## PMC changes: > > - Currently 14 PMC members. > - No new PMC members added in the last 3 months > - Last PMC addition was Josh Elser on Wed Feb 17 2016 > > ## Committer base changes: > > - Currently 19 committers. > - New commmitters: > - Francis Chuang was added as a committer on Tue Sep 27 2016 > - Milinda Pathirage was added as a committer on Tue Jul 12 2016 > - MinJi Kim was added as a committer on Sun Sep 04 2016 > > ## Releases: > > - 1.9.0 was released on Wed Sep 21 2016 > >
