For what it is worth, I'm much happier attributing my request to me being
an Accumulo contributor than as a PMC member of another project. I like to
think my occasional opining on mailing list would qualify me as such [1].

Re: [DRAFT] [REPORT] Apache Accumulo - March 2018

[Christopher]

One roadmap item which has been discussed is 1.9.0. If a "what's coming"
element is needed, that could be mentioned, even if nothing else is known
at this time.

1 - In my first draft I had no information about Tony but I felt like that
was going to prompt questions.  I agree contributor is more relevant but he
is not listed on the people page.  Do we think that matters?


I don't think that matters. The contributors page is code-contributors, 
but the board certainly knows that such lists are not all-encompassing.



2 - What were you thinking on the "what's next"?  Maybe it is time for us
to really define a roadmap, not sure there is time before this is due on
Wed though.


My omission of specifics here was intentional ;) I don't have the time 
to devote meaningful cycles here, but I would agree with you that 
something should probably be documented. If nothing else, acknowledging 
that a roadmap is necessary is a sufficient improvement!

Re: [DRAFT] [REPORT] Apache Accumulo - March 2018

[Josh Elser]

Two minor suggestions:

* Strike the "A member of the Apache Nifi PMC" part. The fact that Tony 
was NiFi PMC member isn't really relevant to the request, is it? IMO, if 
anything, it's more relevant that Tony is a contributor to Accumulo.
* There isn't any discussion about what is coming next -- we have the 
1.7.4 release, but no details about what's in the pipeline.
