## Description:
Apache Olingo is a Java and JavaScript library that implements the Open
Data Protocol (OData). Apache Olingo serves client and server aspects of
OData. It currently supports OData 2.0 and OData 4.0. The latter is
the OASIS version of the protocol: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC.
## Olingo Status
Currently Olingo has no issues that would require board attention.
The community is still working on the Java implementation for the OData V4
standard. In addition the Olingo PMC voted for a new internal release process
for the OData V4 codeline. Future releases will happen in a 3 month cycle. This
should ensure that the releases are provided to users in a more timely manner.
The PMC has decided this based on User and PMC feedback which expressed concerns
about the long and unclear phases between new V4 releases. The next release is
planned at the end of December.
The V2 codeline is in a "maintenance mode". No new features have been developed
here in the past 3 months. All changes done have been bug fixes. Since this is
the case the Olingo PMC will not apply the new 3 month rule to this codeline.
Instead releases here are done if users specifically ask for them or if the
Olingo PMC finds that the current number of fixes is worth a new micro release.
With Ramesh Reddy the Olingo PMC has a new member that has been actively
contributing to the project for some time now. We are very happy with this
addition. Aside from that we receive very little contributions from outside the
PMC circle. Since traffic on the user mailing list is constant and also
includes
new users we do not worry at this point but we find it hard to attract new
contributors.
After seeing the conversations about the board report quality on the board
mailing list it would be nice if we could receive feedback if the current
report
format. I see the reporter tool as a very helpful addition to keep track of
statistics. This in addition to the above overview hopefully gives a very good
insight to the Olingo project.
