revisions are permitted.

# Description:

Impala is a high-performance distributed SQL engine.

## Issues:

The PMC requested that Google, the owners of "IMPALA: Scalable Distributed
DeepRL in DMLab-30"[0], add a disclaimer acknowledging that the ASF owns the
Impala trademark. Google declined to do so.

We engaged with Mark Thomas, ASF's VP, Brand. He suggested we not pursue
this
further. See [1] for details.

## Activity:

The previous three months had 248 patches to the master branch, while this
three-month period had 364. This pattern in the past was usually a result
of a
slowdown during the US winter holiday months, and I expect that's true of
this
uptick, as well.

Prominent work in the last three months includes:

 - Decimal support in Kudu tables
 - End-to-end compression of metadata
 - Support for LLVM 5
 - Support for Hadoop 3
 - Support for the ORC format

## Health report:

The project remains very active. Statistics pertaining to this are covered
above and below: more than 100 commits per month, more than 100 JIRAs
resolved
per month, four new people added as PMC members or committers. We have
continued a release cadence of about once per quarter.
