Team,
It is that time again to send in our board report. I'll submit it
tomorrow but would appreciate if you can take a quick look and point
out things to tweak or add or remove. Really proud of what we're
accomplishing!
Thanks
Joe

## Description:
- Apache NiFi is an easy to use, powerful, and reliable system to
process and distribute data.
- Apache NiFi MiNiFi is an edge data collection agent built to seamlessly
integrate with and leverage the command and control of NiFi. There are
both Java and C++ implementations.
- Apache NiFi Registry is a centralized registry for key configuration items
including flow versions, assets, and extensions for Apache NiFi
and Apache MiNiFi.
- Apache NiFi Nar Maven Plugin is a release artifact used for supporting
the NiFi classloader isolation model.
## Issues:
- There are no issues requiring board attention at this time.
## Activity:
- Conducted several releases including Apache NiFi Registry,
Apache NiFi MiNiFi CPP and Apache NiFi MiNiFi Java. The Apache NiFi Registry
release is a very important step forward for the community as it provides a
powerful software development lifecycle mechanism for Apache NiFi users and
answers a long standing request and often discussed capability.
- Apache NiFi 1.5.0 Release Candidate under vote at the time of this board
report writing.
- Voted a significant number of new committers and PMC members and are
extremely fortunate to see strong committer pipeline continue through newer
