Hi folks It’s reporting time again ;-)
I’m planning on posting the following report on Monday, would be cool to get some approval or feedback: 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 currently no issues requiring board attention ## Membership Data: Apache PLC4X was founded 2019-04-17 (3 years ago) There are currently 20 committers and 13 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 5:4. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members. Last addition was César García on 2021-10-01. - Iñigo Angulo Otegi was added as committer on 2022-08-29 ## Project Activity: It's been an interesting quarter. The project has seen numerous different initiatives. Our BACNet driver has gotten a lot of attention, same with a new C-Bus driver. Our Beckhoff ADS driver has received a major overhaul. Work on some drivers (Especially PROFINET) has been taken over by other members of the community. A lot of progress has been made on the Browse and Discovery API. Besides that the community has been working on PLC4PY (PLC4X on Python), PLC4RS (PLC4X on Rust). We haven't had any releases in the last quarter. Our last releases were: 0.8.0 was released on 2021-01-28. 0.7.0 was released on 2020-05-25. 0.6.0 was released on 2020-03-01. However, we're currently tying up the last strings in preparation for our next release of version 0.10.0. Also will there be multiple presentations on PLC4X at the upcoming ApacheCon NA in New Orleans. ## Community Health: Communication-wise, it's been a pretty quiet quarter. I credit this to the fact that most people actively working on some of the features are working on them on their own, only syncing up every now and then. Nothing to be really concerned about. Looking at most of the metrics, most of them have increases from 70%-136% while the only decrease is on the dev@ and issues@ mailing lists
