Hi Max, Thank you for sending these numbers to the list. Removing the PostgreSQL and Greenplum backport commits before you counted is the useful part.
The steady number of commits is helpful. Please say more about the other point: in each half-year, no more than 9 people merged code, while 27 to 56 people wrote commits. We ask about more than one company because the project should still be able to continue if one company stops contributing. A count of people who merged code does not show which company they work for. Using those numbers, can you answer the questions already on this thread? Are we ready to graduate? Is a top-level project the right destination? What is still missing? Do the people who merged that code work at one company, or at more than one company? If some of the commits you removed were Cloudberry work, not backports, please say so. If some backport commits were still in the count, please say so. -=e -- Ed Espino Apache Cloudberry (Incubating) On Wed, Nov 11, 2026 at 10:00 AM, Max Yang <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Ed, > > Thanks for starting the discussion. > > What the upstream commit history shows > (origin/main, after stripping PostgreSQL/Greenplum backports.
