Hi Folks, Any other updates/comments before I submit our latest board report? (Due tomorrow)
Thanks, Paul. ===============>8============== ## Description: Apache Groovy is responsible for the evolution and maintenance of the Groovy programming language ## Issues: No issues requiring board attention at this time. ## Membership Data: Apache Groovy was founded 2015-11-18 (5 years ago) There are currently 20 committers and 10 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is 2:1. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members. Last addition was Daniel Sun on 2019-05-06. - No new committers. Last addition was Mikko Värri on 2020-06-03. ## Project Activity: We continue to work on bug fixes for 2.5 and 3 and continue to assist other non-Apache projects within the Groovy ecosystem move to 3.0. We are also working on our roadmap for Groovy 4 and recently released our first alpha version. Groovy 4 GA is expected next year. Some interesting aspects (some have incubating status) of the release include a contributed design-by-contract module, a language integrated query module, move to org.apache.groovy maven coordinates from legacy org.codehaus.groovy, additional built-in type checkers, additional built-in macro methods, record-like classes and numerous legacy consolidation activities. Recent releases: 3.0.6 was released on 2020-09-29. 4.0.0-alpha-1 was released on 2020-09-29. 2.4.20 was released on 2020-07-22. Downloads (Maven central/bintray only): - For Aug/Sep/Oct quarter: approx 93 million - last 12 months: ~310M - since 2012 (when we started keeping stats from above repos): ~670M ## Community Health: The overall community status remains healthy. The community tries very hard to be welcoming and interesting discussions continue to take place at appropriate times. Large endeavours currently take a while to progress due to the part-time nature of most contributors. One key community building aspect for the project was our participation in ApacheCon@Home. The project had a dedicated track and received interest from numerous speakers. There were two days of talks, a workshop and a hackerthon. This quarter, 318 (575) commits were contributed from 12 (16) contributors including 7 non-committer contributors (5 new) to the main branch (all branches/repos). <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> Virus-free. www.avast.com <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> <#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2>
