Hello, Below you can find a draft of this quarter's board report. I plan to submit it next Tuesday (July 11, 2023). Please let me know if you have any additions or corrections.
Best regards, Stamatis --------------------------------------------------------- ## 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-project within Calcite and provides a framework for building local and remote JDBC and ODBC database drivers. Avatica has an independent release schedule and its own repository. ## Project Status: Current project status: ongoing Issues for the board: none ## Membership Data: Apache Calcite was founded 2015-10-22 (8 years ago) There are currently 67 committers and 27 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 2:1. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members. Last addition was Benchao Li on 2023-01-27. - Jacky Lau was added as committer on 2023-06-28 - Oliver Lee was added as committer on 2023-06-13 - Tanner Clary was added as committer on 2023-05-25 - Zhe Hu was added as committer on 2023-06-28 ## Project Activity: There were no releases during this quarter. The last release was Apache Calcite 1.34.0 on 2023-03-14. We are actively working towards Apache Calcite 1.35.0 and we plan to release the new version during July 2023. On 2023-06-29, the Calcite community organised a Virtual key signing party for expanding the Web of trust and empowering the cryptographic signatures of our members and future release managers. 4 PMC members and 2 committers attended the event. ## Community Health: The project remains super healthy. The traffic in JIRA, GitHub, issues@, commits, has increased overall, while dev@ has dropped by 18%. During this quarter there were more discussions and exchanges under specific issues/tickets shifting the traffic from dev@ to issues@ and other places. The number of non-committer (contributor) commits per month: +---------------------+---------------------+---------------------+ | year | month | contributor_commits | +---------------------+---------------------+---------------------+ | 2023 | 4 | 17 | | 2023 | 5 | 21 | | 2023 | 6 | 35 | +---------------------+---------------------+---------------------+ The number of active reviewers per month: +---------------------+---------------------+---------------------+ | year | month | active_reviewers | +---------------------+---------------------+---------------------+ | 2023 | 4 | 6 | | 2023 | 5 | 6 | | 2023 | 6 | 11 | +---------------------+---------------------+---------------------+ Top-3 reviewers in the last quarter: +-----------+---------------------+ | committer | reviews | +-----------+---------------------+ | Julian Hyde <[email protected]> | 28 | | Benchao Li <[email protected]> | 12 | | rubenada <[email protected]> | 8 | | Jiajun <[email protected]> | 8 | +-----------+---------------------+ The number of non-committer commits has increased roughly by 43% from the last quarter (51 commits in Q1 vs. 73 commits in Q2) which is promising for inviting new committers in the near term. The number of active reviewers increased slightly compared to the last quarter with June being the most active month for everyone. The preparation for the 1.35.0 release and the call for action did help in bringing those numbers up during June. In terms of sharing the review load, things are a bit better this quarter but still far from being completely balanced. There have been discussions around the topic in the last quarter but we obviously need more involvement from the community members.
