Hi folks,

Johan will be submitting this, but I've drafted the following for our
quarterly report.

Thx
Dan

============================

## Description:
The mission of Isis is the creation and maintenance of software related to
Framework for rapidly developing domain-driven apps in Java

## Issues:
There are no issues requiring board attention at this time.

## Membership Data:
Apache Isis was founded 2012-10-17 (10 years ago)
There are currently 15 committers and 15 PMC members in this project.
The Committer-to-PMC ratio is 1:1.

Community changes, past quarter:
- No new PMC members. Last addition was Jörg Rade on 2020-04-12.
- No new committers. Last addition was Jörg Rade on 2020-03-23.

## Project Activity:
There continues to be substantial development work on v2.0, with the
framework being "re-platformed" to run on top of Spring Boot.

In the last quarter we released a final M8 milestone [1].  We have also had
two CVEs raised, one of which was fixed in M8, the other is fixed in our
master branch; we shall release as a further M9 milestone as soon as it has
passed its vote.

At the September 2022 board meeting we also proposed a vote to rename the
project to "Apache Causeway", and this was passed [2].  We intend to start
working through the tasks once we have released M9.  After that, we will
be ready to cut an RC1 for v2 of the framework; we are "feature complete"
for the scope we've set ourselves.

Alongside there are two incubator projects (within Apache Isis itself) that
are showing good progress: kroviz (a "viewer" providing a human-usable UI),
and a graphql "viewer".  Work continues on these but they are unlikely to
be part of v2.

## Community Health:
This is a mature project and the framework is generally stable.  We are
continuing to see good engagement on our slack channel, which the community
seems to much prefer over the users mailing list.  Nevertheless, we continue
to ensure that all relevant information are cross-posted to users@ and dev@
where necessary.
