Hi, please find the board report below. Comments welcome.
## Description: Apache Felix is a project aimed at implementing specifications from the OSGi Alliance as well as implementing other supporting tools and technologies aligned with OSGi technology. ## Issues: There are no issues requiring board attention. ## Membership Data: Apache Felix was founded 2007-03-28 (13 years ago) There are currently 68 committers and 27 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 9:4. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members. Last addition was Georg Henzler on 2019-06-10. - Stefan Bischof was added as committer on 2020-03-02 ## Project Activity: - Existing implementations have been improved/enhanced based on community feedback. - We did migrate from svn to git(box) and started reorganising around git repositories (including a rework of our website to reflect the changes). - We are discussing breaking out some of our bigger subproject into additional git repositories. - We accepted and integrated the "Atomos" contribution by Thomas Watson and attracted a new committer in the process (Stefan Bischof). - Released 3 components (mostly bug fixes overall). ## Releases: - org.apache.felix.configadmin.plugin.interpolation-1.1.0 was released on 2020-03-02. - maven-scr-plugin-1.26.2 was released on 2019-12-07. - org.apache.felix.scr.bnd-1.9.6 was released on 2019-12-07. - org.apache.felix.scr.bnd-1.9.4 was released on 2019-12-07. ## Community Health: - Overall the project is in ok health. - Questions on the user list are answered, development concerns are either discussed on the mailing list or directly in the JIRA issues. - The project as well as the OSGi community in general is still in the process of adapting to JPMS and Graal/substrate - however, we hope that Atomos and the new OSGi Connect RFC will help in that area. - We need to be on the lookout for new committers. Atomos and the move to github hopefully will help in attracting more people. - We had no issues voting on releases and JIRA issues are generally addressed. - dev@felix.apache.org had a 30% decrease in traffic in the past quarter (292 emails compared to 415) - us...@felix.apache.org had a 166% increase in traffic in the past quarter (8 emails compared to 3) - 30 issues opened in JIRA, past quarter (11% increase) - 24 issues closed in JIRA, past quarter (33% increase) - 19 commits in the past quarter (-47% decrease) - 4 code contributors in the past quarter (-42% decrease) - 9 PRs opened on GitHub, past quarter (-30% decrease) - 14 PRs closed on GitHub, past quarter (133% increase)
