Hi Keyong, Thanks for preparing the report. It looks good to me.
One community activity worth mentioning is that Zhentao Shuai gave a talk at CommunityOverCode Asia 2026 titled “How Celeborn Makes Shuffle in AlibabaCloud Serverless Spark Comfortable, Reassuring, and Worry-Free”: https://asia.communityovercode.org/sessions/datastorage-1202774.html Perhaps we could include this under the Community Health section as an example of Celeborn’s community outreach and knowledge sharing.
