Any feedback before I send this in? Thanks, Paul.
------------------ ## Description: Apache Groovy is responsible for the evolution and maintenance of the Groovy programming language. Groovy is a multi-faceted JVM programming language. ## Issues: There are no issues requiring board attention at this time. Wrt the Maven Coordinate namespace: we are planning to move to org.apache.groovy for Groovy 4 with alphas expected soon. ## Membership Data: Apache Groovy was founded 2015-11-18 (4 years ago) There are currently 17 committers and 10 PMC members in this project. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members. Last addition was Daniel Sun on 2019-05-06. - No new committers. Last addition was Remko Popma on 2018-07-07. A new committer has been invited and has accepted but the ICLA is still pending. We anticipate including this in our next report. ## Project Activity: Recent releases: 2.5.8 was released on Wed Aug 07 2019 3.0.0-beta-2 was released on Mon Jul 08 2019 3.0.0-beta-3 was released on Wed Aug 07 2019 This quarter, 327 commits were contributed from 9 contributors including 5 non-committer contributors (1 new). ## Community Health: We recently did an assessment of health across commits, contributors, issues resolved, releases and downloads over the last 15 years including approx 4 yrs with Apache. Commits and issues resolved have remained steady for most of the life of the project. Releases dropped in 2016 while we were becoming accustomed to the Apache Way but is now inline with pre-Apache cadence. Number of contributors has increased since joining Apache. Downloads have always increased and continue to do so. Groovy artifacts have been downloaded more than a quarter of a billion times since its inception. According to the TIOBE index for this month, Apache Groovy is the 3rd most popular programming language putting it ahead of: Go (17), Swift (18), Perl (19), R (20), Scala (36) and Kotlin (45).
