Here is the attached draft of our board report for this month. Please let
me know if you have any suggestions.

---------------------------------------------------------

## Description:
Apache TinkerPop is a graph computing framework for both graph databases
(OLTP) and graph analytic systems (OLAP).

## Activity:
TinkerPop is currently in the process of preparing releases 3.2.10 and
3.3.4. We delayed our major release of 3.4.0 until later in the year as
there were some outstanding issues we wanted to see handled, but we didn't
want that delay to hold up 3.2.10 and 3.3.4 as they have some useful bug
fixes and minor features that will be helpful to users and graph system
providers.

The wider TinkerPop community saw some additional growth with two new
third-party libraries:

* gremlinq[1] a strongly typed driver for .NET
* gremlex[2] a Gremlin Language Variant for Elixer and the Erlang community

We also noted a new TinkerPop graph implementation by Huawei, known as the
Huawei Graph Engine Service[2], providing yet another graph database that
supports the Gremlin language and the TinkerPop ecosystem.

There were a number of presentations related to TinkerPop and Gremlin
during
this reporting period given Graph Day[4] in San Francisco. The following
presentations were given from TinkerPop PMC members at various venues:

* "Graph Based Malware Analysis"[5] - Florian Hockmann
* "Distributed ACID with JanusGraph on FoundationDB" - Ted Wilmes
* "Distributed Data Show Episode 51: Graph Tips and Tricks"[6] - Ted Wilmes

TinkerPop supplied an out of band report in the previous month explaining
the current state of a PMC discussion related to contribution recognition.
At this point, we have open up this discussion on our dev list for wider
feedback on the action items generally described in the summary post
that was provided in that report.
