## Project Activity:
Jena usually does a release every 3-4 months. As noted last report,
3.15.0 has a problem with one of the server binaries, and new users have
ran into problems. The project released 3.16.0 with a fix in July; user
email and StackOverflow questions about the issue have dropped off.
## Community Health:
The original Jena project (pre-ASF) celebrated it's 20th birthday!
The first public release of code was 28th August 2000. We held a
community event online, kindly hosted by the Lotico meetup, to mark the
occasion.
Claude Warren (PMC) organised a successful Jena track at ApacheCon with
talks about Jena itself and from project using Jena.
While the statistics show a reduction in activity and emails, a dip in
the northern hemisphere summer is not unusual. The number of outstanding
JIRA has increased slightly, by about 5 tickets.
