Add more explanations: Since last report, the communities has welcomed 6 new committers and 2 new PPMC members. Comparing to last quarter, when we have 4 new committers and no new PPMC members. The number of contributors have grown from 119 to 144.
I think the following events have played key parts of helping the community to grow: 0. Ian Luo and Jun Liu have delivered a a talk "Introducing Apache Dubbo(Incubating): What is Dubbo and How it Works" in ApacheCon Montreal. 1. With a discussion with mentors in ApacheCon Montreal, the Dubbo community and learned a lot about how to build the community. One key takeaway is that to keep the bar for becoming a committer low. 2. Dave Fisher has becoming our new mentor. 3. Apache project meetup in ShangHai has been held in Oct 13th 4. Our mentor Justin has visited Alibaba, and give a talk on navigating through the incubator process 5. COSCon'18 has been held in Shenzhen, China, where Craig L.Russell, Dave Fisher, and Justin have delivered a lot of wonderful talks about ASF. The closed PRs actually drops from 287 to 190, one of the reason I can think is that some of the committers were busy with other things, with their activities back and community continues to grow , I remain positive that the stats can grow in next few months.
