[DRAFT] Apache Jena report - 2021-10
## Description: The mission of Jena is the creation and maintenance of software related to Java framework for building Semantic Web applications ## Issues: There are no issues requiring board attention. ## Membership Data: Apache Jena was founded 2012-04-18 (9 years ago). There are currently 18 committers and 14 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is 9:7. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members. Last addition was Aaron Coburn on 2019-01-22. - No new committers. Last addition was Greg Albiston on 2019-07-08. ## Project Activity: Jena version 4.2.0 was released 2021-09-12. It fixed CVE-2021-39239, which was discovered by the team, and affects all version 4.1.0 and earlier. The release was not just about a CVE fix. The release included a new component, a data validation engine for the ShEx language to go alongside the SHACL engine; and also support for reading JSON-LD 1.1 using an external 3rd party library. JSON-LD 1.1 is used by some IOT device and service descriptions. During the release checking, a problem was discovered in the OSGi bundle related to the new dependencies for JSON-LD 1.1 handling. The project dropped the OSGi convenience binaries, and a discussion has started about retiring them. The development community no longer has the skills, nor interest, necessary to maintain their production. Contact with known downstream open source projects, and a message to users@ has not produced any concern. Jena has a process for retiring modules - delete in git, record the last git commit with the code in case some interest emerges and will maintain the module. ## Community Health: Activity seems normal. Some of the figures are slightly skewed because one PR had 48 commits which is unusual for Jena. The dev@ list is also the destination of JIRA email and is otherwise quite quiet. The speed of evolution of the project is down to developer time. The users@ is active and the main support channel.
