## Iceberg
Iceberg is a table format for large, slow-moving tabular data.
Iceberg has been incubating since 2018-11-16.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. Grow the Iceberg community
2. Add more committers and PPMC members
### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
No issues.
### How has the community developed since the last report?
- The community added a committer and PPMC member, Ratandeep Ratti.
Ratandeep is the 4th new PPMC member.
- In the 3 months since the last report, 76 pull requests were merged,
for an average of 25 per month so the contribution rate is still active and
healthy
- The community had a video sync with about 20 attendees. These will be
held about every 3 weeks at alternating times so that contributors in
Europe and Asia can attend
- The community is working toward an 0.8.0 release in mid-April
### How has the project developed since the last report?
- The community is building support for the upcoming Spark 3.0 release
and working on moving this to master
- More Parquet vectorization PRs have been merged, showing significant
progress
- A contributor has built support for Spark streaming, which is under
review
- Members of the Apache Flink community have been discussing integration
and have contributed an early Flink sink

and support for generics have been recently added
