Hi everyone, Here’s the board report I just posted. If you have anything to add, please reply to let me know! Description:
Apache Iceberg is a table format for huge analytic datasets that is designed for high performance and ease of use. Issues: There are no issues requiring board attention. Membership Data: Apache Iceberg was founded 2020-05-19 (2 years ago) There are currently 22 committers and 12 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 2:1. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members. Last addition was Jack Ye on 2021-11-14. - Fokko Driesprong was added as committer on 2022-08-21 - Steven Wu was added as committer on 2022-10-07 - Yufei Gu was added as committer on 2022-08-25 Project Activity: The community had 2 releases in the 0.14.x line and an initial Python release, 0.1.0. In addition, the vote for a 1.0.0 release is currently passing. The Python release is the result of significant community effort and includes a new CLI utility (pyiceberg), support for Hive and REST catalogs, and the ability to read table metadata. The next goal is a 0.2.0 release that can handle query planning to enable reads in Python and Python-based engines. The 1.0.0 JVM release adds API guarantees to the API module, but is closely based on 0.14.1 to make transitioning to a new major version simple. Next, the community is preparing a 1.1.0 release with significant new updates: - The ability to read and write table branches - Scan metrics reporting - Support for Spark FunctionCatalog - FLIP-27 reader support in Flink SQL - Z-order support when rewriting or compacting data files - Support for Puffin stats in table metadata Community Health: The community continues to be healthy in terms of commits. The number of unique contributors decreased slightly, which indicates the community should ensure pull requests from contributors are getting enough attention. The increase of issues closed is due to setting up a stale issues bot to help keep issues fresh and relevant. The community also added issue templates to make bug reports and feature requests better and more clear. -- Ryan Blue
