 Hi Board@,


 +The Apache Gora open source framework provides an in-memory data model and

 +value stores, document stores and RDBMSs, and analyzing the data with
 +extensive Apache Hadoop MapReduce support.
 +
 +Project Releases
 +
 +The last release of Gora (0.5) was on 20th September, 2014.
 +
 +Overall Project Activity since last report
 +
 +Consistent and encouraging. We see most activity happening
 +on the dev@ list which is normal. Additionally since the 0.5
 +release we've seen a number of communities that depend on
 +Gora upgrade. We've seen a number of issues identified
 +in use of Gora downstream and reported back to us. This is
 +encouraging meaning that more people are adopting the software.
 +Work is ongoing to have Gora implemented within Apache
 +OODT as an object-to-datestore abstraction for the OODT
 +FileManager component.
 +
 +When were the last committers or PMC members elected?
 +
 +Damien Raude-Morvan  was elected as PMC member and committer
 +on 2014-08-03 (-mm-dd).
 +
 +How has the community developed since the last report?
 +
 +We have recently seen users of Gora within the Apache Giraph
 +community coming to our user@ list. This follows upgrade of
 +the giraph-gora component to the new 0.5 release.
 +
 +Mailing list members are as follows

 The Apache Gora open source framework provides an in-memory data model and
 persistence for big data. Gora supports persisting to column stores, key
 value stores, document stores and RDBMSs, and analyzing the data with
 extensive Apache Hadoop MapReduce support.

 Project Releases

 The last release of Gora (0.3) was on 8th May 2013.

 Overall Project Activity since last report

 Project activity has been reasonably quiet with much less mailing list
 activity than the summer quarter.
 There has however been promising activity from a new member of the
 community Yasin Tamer. We are currently working on GORA_94 a branch
 of the trunk code which focuses on a long-overdue upgrade of our
 legacy Avro dependencies from 1.3.3 to 1.7.5. As this is a major
 undertaking therefore once this is addressed we will be pushing a release
 candidate for 0.4.

 When were the last committers or PMC members elected?

 Roland von Herget joined as PMC member and committer
 on Thu, 7th Mar 2013.

 How has the community developed since the last report?

 Gora again participated in this years Google Summer of Code program.
 Our student Apos Gianakiddis successfully completed his
 project and Renato Marroquin (already a member of the Gora PMC)
 was also successful in integrating Gora into Apache Giraph
 as part of his GSoC project.
 Mailing list numbers are as follows
 user: from 46 -- 49
 dev:  from 62 -- 60

 Changes to PMC  Committers

 Nothing to report.

 PMC and Committer diversity

 We currently have committers from a wide variety of Apache projects
 including, Nutch, Tika, OODT, Camel, Solr, Accumulo, Whirr, Hadoop,
 Any23  HBase (this is not an exhaustive list).

 The Apache Gora open source framework provides an in-memory data model and
 persistence for big data. Gora supports persisting to column stores, key
 value stores, document stores and RDBMSs, and analyzing the data with
 extensive Apache Hadoop MapReduce support.

 Project Releases

 The Apache Gora team was happy to announce the release of Gora 0.2 on
 24th April 2012 (1st since graduation from the Incubator). During the
 process of this release, the team managed to simplify the release process
 somewhat so we look forward to the shift towards a more incremental
 release policy within the project as a whole. As a side note, an
 experimental branch of Nutch is now very close to a community VOTE
 further to the recent Gora 0.2 release.

 Overall Project Activity since last report

 The majority of work directly concerned the 0.2 release as mentioned above.
 Since then there have been a few commits, however there has also been
 some encouraging conversation with respect to our site migration to
 the Apache CMS. We currently have some 50 odd issues to work on within
 the 0.3 development drive.

 How has the community developed since the last report?

 Encouragingly we have had a number of new issues logged on Jira
 from new Gora users. On most occasions this has sparked decent
 conversations
 however we are lacking patches from these new Gora users. Some excellent
 news was that our Gora Amazon DynamoDB Google Summer of Code project
 was succesfully accepted into this years programme. The prospective
 student, Renato has been on list and we look forward to kicking things
 off later this month.

 Changes to PMC  Committers

 NONE

 PMC and Committer diversity

 We currently have committers from a wide variety of projects including,
 Nutch, Tika, OODT, Camel, Solr, Accumulo  Hadoop (this is not an
 exhaustive
 list). Within the scope of the 0.3 development drive is an extensive
 upgrade
 of the Avro code, so we will be vigilant in attracting new members. We also
 look forward to the progression of GSoC. Hopefully our student progresses
 to become part of the Gora team in due course.
