Hello, I drafted the Quickstep podling report below. Please take a look and let me know if there are any changes.
--- Quickstep is a high-performance database engine. Quickstep has been incubating since 2016-03-29. Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation: 1. Building a Quickstep community 2. More adoption of the Quickstep technology 3. More releases Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware of? None How has the community developed since the last report? In the summer of 2017, we took efforts to spread awareness about the Quickstep project and technology. We had many talks, particularly in the San Francisco Bay Area. The talks/venues are listed here: 1. SRI International in Menlo Park 2. A meetup hosted by H2O.ai in Mountain View (Link: https://www.meetup.com/H2O-AI-Deep-Learning/events/241576643/?_cookie-check=en9PvHYSsw_N1Bf_) 3. Hortonworks in Santa Clara (Thanks to our mentor Julian Hyde for hosting) We had also applied for a talk at BigDataWisconsin meetup but the proposal was not selected. How has the project developed since the last report? During the summer, the development activity was slow. There are ongoing efforts to build a distributed version of Quickstep. How would you assess the podling's maturity? Please feel free to add your own commentary.

It is an initial reminder to give you plenty of time to prepare your quarterly board report. The board meeting is scheduled for Wed, 20 September 2017, 10:30 am PDT. The report for your podling will form a part of the Incubator PMC report. The Incubator PMC requires your report to be submitted 2 weeks before the board meeting, to allow sufficient time for review and submission (Wed, September 06). Please submit your report with sufficient time to allow the Incubator PMC, and subsequently board members to review and digest. Again, the very latest you should submit your report is 2 weeks prior to the board meeting. Thanks, The Apache Incubator PMC Submitting your Report ---------------------- Your report should contain the following: * Your project name * A brief description of your project, which assumes no knowledge of the project or necessarily of its field * A list of the three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation. * Any issues that the Incubator PMC or ASF Board might wish/need to be aware of * How has the community developed since the last report * How has the project developed since the last report. * How does the podling rate their own maturity. This should be appended to the Incubator Wiki page at: https://wiki.apache.org/incubator/September2017 Note: This is manually populated. You may need to wait a little before this page is created from a template. Mentors ------- Mentors should review reports for their project(s) and sign them off on the Incubator wiki page. Signing off reports shows that you are following the project - projects that are not signed may raise alarms for the Incubator PMC. Incubator PMC
