Hey all, I put together a draft for the quarterly ASF board report due tomorrow, sorry for the short notice. Let me know if I missed anything or should make any changes. Thanks!
------------- ## Description Apache Druid is a high performance real-time analytics database. It is designed for workflows where low-latency query and ingest are the main requirements. It implements ingestion, storage, and querying subsystems. Users interface with Druid through built-in SQL and JSON APIs, as well as third-party applications. Druid has an extensive web of connections with other Apache projects: Calcite for SQL planning, Curator and ZooKeeper for coordination, Kafka and Hadoop as data sources, Avro, ORC, or Parquet as supported data input formats, and DataSketches for scalable approximate algorithms. Druid can also be used as a data source by Superset. ## Issues There are no issues requiring board attention at this time. ## Activity We are currently finishing up our 2nd post-graduation release, 0.18.0, which we hope to have wrapped up and ready for release in the week of April 13th. Additionally, we released 0.17.1 on April 1st, in response to a vulnerabilty report recieved by the Apache Security Team. The corresponding CVE is CVE-2020-1958 and details are available at https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2020-1958. To update on community happenings, since our last board report we have had 1 virtual meetup which was a success, with an additional virtual meetup scheduled for April 8th. Due to COVID-19, all in-person meetups have been put on hold, in favor of virtual meetups. Likewise, the Druid Summit event has been rescheduled for November 2-4, with a smaller virtual event scheduled for April 15th. Mailing list activity is healthy with 156 emails on the dev list (dev@druid.apache.org) over the last quarter. Our ASF slack channel, #druid, has nearly 750 members, with daily activity of users asking for and offering support to each other. ## Recent PMC changes - Currently 27 PMC members. - No changes to PMC since graduation. ## Recent committer changes - Currently 35 committers. - No recent changes to committers, the most recent addition was Chi Cao Minh on 2020-01-15 ## Recent releases - 0.17.1, a security release, was released on April 1 2020 ## Development activity by the numbers In the last quarter: - 317 pull requests opened - 323 pull requests merged/closed - 178 issues opened - 112 issues closed - 878 comments on pull requests - 541 comments on issues
