If you have anything to add … please report this as soon as possible. Chris. ## Description: The mission of the Apache PLC4X project is creating a set of libraries for communicating with industrial programmable logic controllers (PLCs) using a variety of protocols but with a shared API. ## Issues: There are no issues requiring board attention. ## Membership Data: Apache PLC4X was founded 2019-04-17 (8 months ago) There are currently 9 committers and 9 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is 1:1. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members. Last addition was Łukasz Dywicki on 2019-07-28. - No new committers. Last addition was Łukasz Dywicki on 2019-07-28. However we just invited Lukas Ott to join the project as a comitter and he has accepted the invitation. We are now waiting for his ICLA to be recorded on file. ## Project Activity: Releases: - 0.5.0 was released on 2019-11-25 Community Events: - 2019-09-09 - 2019-09-12 ApacheCon NA 2019, Las Vegas, US (Multiple talks and hackathon) - 2019-09-24 IoT Hessen, Kassel, Germany (From the chip to the cloud with Apache) - 2019-10-22 - 2019-10-24 ApacheCon EU 2019, Berlin, Germany (Multiple talks and hackathon) - 2019-11-26 ElasticSearch UG Meetup, Frankfurt, Germany (Introduction Logstash PLC4X Plugin) - 2019-12-03 Apache IoT @ JUG Saar, Saarbrücken, Germany (From the chip to the cloud with Apache) - 2019-12-11 Apache NiFi + Hacking around the IoTree, Frankfurt, Germany (Apache NiFi PLC4X Integration) We have been continuing to port existing drivers to the new code-generation framework. Also have we been implementing new protocols (Mostly based on paid gigs from the industry). A lot of bug-fixing has been done and we're looking forward to a big refactoring and brainstorming Hackathon form 2019-12-17 - 2019-12-19 in Weinheim, where we are going to work on a proposal for the version 1.0.0 API. ## Community Health: This quarter for most of the time activity on the mailing-list and in the commits had dropped to worrying levels. This was mainly related to high workload on the day-jobs of the community members. However in the past 2-3 weeks a lot of new people have joined discussions and submitted PRs and the existing comitter- and PMC activity has picked up again. - dev@plc4x.apache.org had a 8% decrease in traffic in the past quarter (349 emails compared to 379) - iss...@plc4x.apache.org had a 73% increase in traffic in the past quarter (132 emails compared to 76) - 19 issues opened in JIRA, past quarter (46% increase) - 13 issues closed in JIRA, past quarter (62% increase) - 309 commits in the past quarter (-20% decrease) - 23 PRs opened on GitHub, past quarter (91% increase) - 20 PRs closed on GitHub, past quarter (66% increase) - 29 contributors which have contributed code to the git repo (up by 3) - 142 Github Stars (up by 18 since last report) (up by 43) - 272 @ApachePLC4X Twitter account followers (up by 86) We are very happy to see more people joining in from companies reporting to use Apache PLC4X.
