Somehow my sign off on Fineract didn't get recorded (perhaps my fault

> How has the project developed since the last report?
>
>   Since the last status report, 166 new JIRA issues have been created and127
>   have been resolved.  Travis CI has been enabled so all PRs are
>   automatically built and tested upon submittal. Open discussions of project
>   related activities and decisions continue on the TinkerPop dev mailing
>   list.
>
>   We continue to reach out to other Apache projects to discuss integration
>   possibilities.  Since the last report, we have had discussions with Apache
>   Flink and Apache S2Graph about adding TinkerPop support.
>
>   A number of graph providers have released new versions of their software
>   with TinkerPop support.  These include Stardog, Blazegraph, and OrientDB
>   (via the community driven, orientdb-gremlin).  This demonstrates a
>   continued community interest, and demand for TinkerPop support.
>
>   A tutorials section has been added to the TinkerPop homepage along with a
>   number of tutorials targeted at the TinkerPop beginner.  The hope is that
>   this will lower the barrier of entry for new folks who are interested in
>   the graph space and TinkerPop in particular.
>
>   The following articles/presentations/blogposts were provided about
