## Description: Apache Cayenne is a Java persistence framework. It takes a distinct approach to object persistence and provides an ORM runtime, remote persistence services, and a GUI mapping/modeling tool.
## Issues: There are no issues requiring board attention at this time. ## Activity: The project released version 3.1.1 (stable branch) to fix bugs, while continuing development on 4.0 (alpha branch). Many changes were made to 4.0 the past quarter for the Remote Object Persistence (ROP) layer of Cayenne to make it more modular and allow swapping serialization protocols. These changes will continue as ROP and other features are fleshed out for the 4.0 release. ## Health report: Cayenne is still under active development and mailing list activity indicates we have an active and stable community. ## PMC changes: - Currently 8 PMC members. - Savva Kolbachev was added to the PMC on Tue Apr 12 2016. ## Committer base changes: - Currently 20 committers. - No new committers added in the last 3 months. - Last committer addition was Savva Kolbachev at Mon Jan 19 2015. ## Releases: - Last release was 3.1.1, a maintenance release, on May 16, 2016. ## Mailing list activity: User and Developer mailing list activity has been healthy. There were many interesting and useful conversations on the User list, including many helpful responses from non-PMC/Committer members which indicates broad community interest in the project and assisting others. The Developer list hosted many robust conversations over the ROP changes and future features/changes for Cayenne Modeler. - dev@cayenne.apache.org: - 122 subscribers (up 1 in the last 3 months). - 120 emails sent to list (165 in previous quarter). - u...@cayenne.apache.org: - 241 subscribers (up 0 in the last 3 months). - 189 emails sent to list (145 in previous quarter). ## JIRA activity: - 23 JIRA tickets created in the last 3 months. - 14 JIRA tickets closed/resolved in the last 3 months.
