Hi Groovy (including Geb) & Grails folks, Any updates/comments before I submit our latest board report? (Due in two days.)
Thanks, Paul. ===============>8============== ## Description: Apache Groovy is responsible for the evolution and maintenance of the Groovy programming language and related projects from the Groovy ecosystem ## Project Status: Current project status: Ongoing with moderate activity. Issues for the board: No issues requiring board attention at this time. ## Membership Data: Apache Groovy was founded 2015-11-18 (9 years ago) There are currently 23 committers and 13 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 3:2. No new PMC members. Last addition was Soeren Glasius on 2024-11-06. No new committers. Last addition was Sergio del Amo on 2024-12-20. ## Project Activity: Recent releases: 4.0.26 was released on 2025-02-28. 3.0.24 was released on 2025-02-27. 4.0.25 was released on 2025-01-25. The Groovy PMC voted to accept Geb (previously gebish.org) as a Groovy subproject late last year. There is a draft website and snapshots are currently available. A first release under the ASF is expected in the next few weeks. The Groovy PMC voted earlier in the year to sponsor incubation of the Grails project (grails.org) to become a new TLP when ready. The Grails PPMC is working well. * the major Grails repos are now under the ASF organization * they have voted in new committers and PPMC members * extensive work has taken place to prepare for a first release (including consolidation, licensing and reproducibility for the couple of hundred artifacts that are part of a Grails release) The other major goal of the Groovy PMC over the next quarter is to move Groovy 5 towards a GA release. ## Community Health: Overall, community activity has increased this quarter. Work on incorporating Geb as a subproject is well advanced. Work helping Grails on their incubation journey is well advanced. The main Groovy project is preparing its first non-alpha release of Groovy 5 which is expected shortly.
