Hi Julian,
well it WAS depressing :-(
... but I did also write:
However in the past 2-3 weeks a lot of new people have joined discussions and
submitted PRs and the existing committer- and PMC activity has picked up again.
The board isn't going to take any action, but I thought it would be good to
write it as objective as possible.
It shows that we are actively seeing and addressing things and not brushing
things under the carpet.

Betreff: [DRAFT] December 2019 board report
Hi all,
I just whipped up our quarterly board report and would submit it this
evening as today is the submission deadline.
If you have anything to add … please report this as soon as possible.
Chris.
## Description:
The mission of the Apache PLC4X project is creating a set of libraries
for communicating with industrial programmable logic controllers (PLCs) using a
variety of protocols but with a shared API.
## Issues:
There are no issues requiring board attention.
## Membership Data:
Apache PLC4X was founded 2019-04-17 (8 months ago) There are currently
9 committers and 9 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is
1:1.
Community changes, past quarter:
- No new PMC members. Last addition was Łukasz Dywicki on 2019-07-28.
- No new committers. Last addition was Łukasz Dywicki on 2019-07-28.
However we just invited Lukas Ott to join the project as a comitter and
he has accepted the invitation. We are now waiting for his ICLA to be recorded
on file.
## Project Activity:

We have been continuing to port existing drivers to the new

based on paid gigs from the industry). A lot of bug-fixing has been done and
we're looking forward to a big refactoring and brainstorming Hackathon form
2019-12-17 -
2019-12-19 in Weinheim, where we are going to work on a proposal for
the version 1.0.0 API.
## Community Health:
This quarter for most of the time activity on the mailing-list and in
the commits had dropped to worrying levels. This was mainly related to high
workload on the day-jobs of the community members. However in the past 2-3
weeks a lot of new people have joined discussions and submitted PRs and the
existing comitter- and PMC activity has picked up again.
