Hi Stanbolers,

I submitted the following report to the board:

------------

Status report for the Apache Stanbol Project - May, 2017

Apache Stanbol provides a set of reusable components for semantic content
management.

We started a discussion about who is using Stanbol and encouraged the
people who actively use (and depend) on Stanbol to contribute and
become part of the developer community.

Unfortunately, the technological barrier is rather high and people
are a little bit overwhelmed with the large code base and the
number of OSGi bundles. So people need time to get familiar
with that.

This may be one reason why not much happened since then. No new
contributions from people outside the PMC were made. The PMC
itself has only one active (code) contributer over the last
months.

The PMC is aware of the situation but at the moment the lack
of time and availability of persons make it very difficult
to change something fundamentally.
