Hi Stanbolers, I did submit the following report to the board for the November 2016 board meeting.
Status report for the Apache Stanbol Project - November, 2016 Apache Stanbol provides a set of reusable components for semantic content management. The project finally managed to invite two new PMC members. One of these two new members, Rafa Haro, also managed to cut a release after more than two years without a major release. >From the technical side the project is doing okay now. The release helps people to use Stanbol in a stable manner. However, the ongoing development is rather slow and no plans were made until now for future releases. The project chair started a discussion about electing a new chair who is much more involved in the daily business of Stanbol. Since the current chair has less time for Stanbol (the missed reports is a clear indication), it may be good to handover to someone else. However, it is not the intention to just drop the job but to drive the discussion for a new chair.
