Hi, here is my draft for the report. We have to submit it by tomorrow.
Status report for the Apache Stanbol Project - September, 2013 Apache Stanbol provides a set of reusable components for semantic content management. There are no issues which require board attention at the moment. The project's activities in terms of new development got a little bit slower during the summer. Nonetheless do we have a steady activity on the mailing list through user requests and interest in possible new features. There were plans for a summer term release but this has not been finally prepared yet. So the next step is to cut a new release which is really needed for the community. In this context we have also started to work on a new branch towards a 1.0.0 release of Stanbol. Our PMC member Reto Bachman-Gmür wrote a book about Apache Stanbol which got published at Packt Publishing: http://www.packtpub.com/apache-stanbol/book Two Stanbol students are doing create work in their GSoC projects: Freebase Entity Disambiguation in Apache Stanbol Student: Antonio David Perez Morales Mentor : Rupert Westenthaler http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/project/google/gsoc2013/adperezmorales/10001 FOAF Co-reference Based Entity Disambiguation Engine In Apache Stanbol Student: Dileepa Jayakody Mentor : Andreas Kuckartz http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/project/google/gsoc2013/dileepaj/14001 Subscribers on the dev list: 186 No new committers were elected.
