## Description:
- A high-performance columnar file format for Hadoop workloads.
## Issues:
- There are no issues requiring the board's attention.
## Activity:
- We released the bug fix release 1.5.6.
- We are preparing to making release candidates for 1.6 in the coming week.
- The column encryption has been committed to master.
- We added user annotations on the types to support the Iceberg project.
- We worked with the Spark community to help them adopt the 1.5.6 release.
## Health report:
- It has been challenging to get code reviews on the Java side. We prefer
to have code reviewed before it is committed, but we allow commit then
review, so the work doesn't get stuck. Hopefully the new committers will
give us additional review bandwidth.
- Two new committers were added this quarter.
