Hi, All.
Happy New Year!
In 2021, Apache ORC community released 10 versions (including 1.5.13 EOL)
successfully. Thank you for all your contributions again!
https://orc.apache.org/docs/releases.html#all-releases
In 2022, we have the following release plan to improve the visibility and
collaboration of the Apache ORC releases for all active branches.
https://github.com/apache/orc/milestones?state=open
2022-01-15 1.6.13 (0 open, 1 closed)
2022-02-15 1.7.3 (0 open, 6 closed)
2022-09-15 1.8.0 (3 open, 30 closed)
In addition, there are two changes in the GitHub Action Infra in this month.
First, we added a 'Stale' GitHub Action job to get automated help
in order to manage the stale PRs.

Second, we replaced AppVeyor's Window test coverage with GitHub Action
runner
in order to reduce our maintenance complexibility. Currently, we completed
our part and have been waiting for the removal of webhook from ASF INFRA
team.
ORC-875 Add GitHub Action job for Windows Server 2019
ORC-1073 Remove appveyor.yml
INFRA-22692 Remove AppVeyor integration
For the January ORC Board Report, I'll make and share a draft this week
because
the due date is 12nd January.
Thanks,
Dongjoon.
