I am not sure how health grades are assigned. I just want to mention that I went to Community over Code last month in Minneapolis, and there were no presentations on Calcite, I didn't meet anyone who said they were working on Calcite, and there were no Calcite stickers.
In comparison, there were maybe 20 or more sessions on Cassandra, and many other projects that had lots of presentations. So if Calcite is "super healthy" I wonder what the other projects are. This is just one data point.

I plan to submit the final version by the end of the week. Please let me know if you have any additions or corrections. Best, Ruben ------------------------------------------------- ## Description: Apache Calcite is a highly customizable framework for parsing and planning queries on data in a wide variety of formats. It allows database-like access, and in particular a SQL interface and advanced query optimization, for data not residing in a traditional database. Avatica is a sub-project within Calcite and provides a framework for building local and remote JDBC and ODBC database drivers. Avatica has an independent release schedule and its own repository. ## Project Status: Current project status: ongoing (high activity) Issues for the board: none ## Membership Data: Apache Calcite was founded 2015-10-22 (10 years ago) There are currently 78 committers and 32 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 5:2. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members. Last addition was Alessandro Solimando on 2025-05-01. - No new committers. Last addition was Zhen Chen on 2025-05-19. ## Project Activity: Avatica 1.27.0 was released on 2025-09-30, it contains dependency upgrades, Gradle 8.14 and support for MySQL unsigned types. There were no Calcite releases this quarter, but we have started the discussions towards Calcite 1.41.0, so it shall be released soon. ## Community Health: The community continues on a "Super healthy" status. As usual during the northern summer, there has been a slow-down in the general activity in the last three months, e.g. we have seen a decrease in the mailing lists traffic in the last quarter (18% decrease in dev, 26% decrease in issues). Nevertheless, we have had a decent amount of Jira tickets opened (129) and closed (100) in the past three months.
