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. Subscribers on the dev list: 231 Last new committer was Cristian Petroaca on May 7th, 2015 Last new PMC member were Cristian Petroaca on July 28th, 2016 Rafa Haro on July 28th, 2016 Last stack release was: Apache Stanbol 1.0.0 on Oct 23rd, 2016 Last component release was: Apache Stanbol Partial Security Release RC2 on June 5th, 2014 org.apache.stanbol.commons.security.reactor-20140602
