Hello all, I prepared the board report.
Feedback are welcome as always. ## Description: The mission of Apache Camel is the creation and maintenance of an open-source integration framework based on known Enterprise Integration Patterns. ## Issues: There are no issues requiring board attention at this time ## Membership Data: Apache Camel was founded 2008-12-17 (13 years ago) There are currently 79 committers and 38 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 5:3. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members. Last addition was James Netherton on 2021-04-12. - Marat Gubaidullin was added as committer on 2021-07-29 - Pasquale Congiusti was added as committer on 2021-07-22 - Zheng Feng was added as committer on 2021-06-30 ## Project Activity: - We released Camel 3.7.5 - We released Camel 3.4.6 - We released Camel 3.11.0 - We released Camel 3.11.1 - The Camel 3.7.x releases are part of the second LTS for Camel 3. We are planning to support 3.7.x for one year. We are releasing these LTS with bug fixes - We released 3.11.0 release: this release is the LTS release with 3.7.x. We're going to stop releasing 3.4.x releases and going ahead with those two LTS. We are already working on the new LTS which will be 3.14.0, with two intermediate development releases. - We released Camel K 1.4.1 - We released Camel K 1.5.0 - We released Camel K 1.5.1 - We released Camel K 1.6.0 - We are improving the Camel-K experience and we are expanding and improving the Kamelet concept, by introducing more Kameletes to the provided catalog - The Camel-Quarkus work is going ahead following the main camel releases with multiple releases - We released Camel-quarkus 2.0.0-M1 - We released Camel-quarkus 2.0.0-M2 - We released Camel-quarkus 2.0.0 - We released Camel-quarkus 2.1.0 - We released Camel-quarkus 2.2.0 - We are continuing working on the Camel-kafka-connector for basing it on Kamelet concept - 0.10.1 on 23 May 2021 - The 0.7.x releases are based on the second LTS of main Camel, 3.7.x - We are working for supporting the next Camel LTS with camel-kafka-connector too - We'll be featured on the Integration track at ApacheCon @Home 2021 and ApacheCon Asia 2021. We received 22 submissions and selected 14 for a two day presence at ApacheCon @Home 2021, first day focusing on Camel, second day focusing on other ASF projects in the software integration ecosystem. ## Community Health: - dev@camel.apache.org had a 8% increase in traffic in the past quarter (386 emails compared to 356): This increase is related to 3.11.x LTS release and migration effort. - iss...@camel.apache.org had a 30% decrease in traffic in the past quarter (1616 emails compared to 2280): We are focusing on fixing issues for 3.11.x. - us...@camel.apache.org had a 6% decrease in traffic in the past quarter (311 emails compared to 329): the situation is more or less the same of the last quarter, the decrease is probably for the summer time. - 212 issues opened in JIRA, past quarter (-42% decrease) and 209 issues closed in JIRA, past quarter (-42% decrease): as reported above, the situation is stable. The activity related to Camel 2 is near to zero and we are focusing on old opened issues. We are getting feedback about new LTS releases, but many of them are coming from other channel like the zulip chat. - 3053 commits in the past quarter (36% decrease) and 123 code contributors in the past quarter (1% increase): the core Camel team is stabilizing the codebase so there is a little decrease in number of commits, contributions related to documentation and website is increasing. This is related to summer time probably, but also by the fact we are focusing on stabilizing the LTS and codebase is more or less stable at the moment. - 851 PRs opened on GitHub, past quarter (-20% decrease) and 851 PRs closed on GitHub, past quarter (-19% decrease): the code stabilization and less work on the camel kafka connector side explain the decrease in number of PRs open and closed. Camel-kafka-connector still needs to be aligned to the new LTS with Kamelets support. - 251 issues opened on GitHub, past quarter (38% decrease) and 248 issues closed on GitHub, past quarter (24% decrease): The camel-kamelets repository last quarter gave a boost to the github issues, now it's much more stable.
