Last year, we published an RFC - "Roadmap: Towards the First Public Release" 
[1]. Thanks for the continuous efforts made by the community. We have completed 
several milestones and amazing achievements.

Specifically, we published the first Apache incubator release - version 0.1.0 
[2]. In this release, we refactored and rewrote almost all core components for 
better engineering. New features and enhancements was implemented and well 
tested. Also we wrote plenty of documents for the design, implementation, as 
well as the code base. Furthermore, the homepage [3] of Apache Teaclave 
(incubating) was built and online, which contains many useful information on 
the project and community. We also organized several offline meetups to build 
up and grow the Teaclave family. In addition, for better explaining the 
project, we introduced the blog in the Teaclave homepage and then published an 
article about the ecosystem[4]. In this article, we spent some time to 
summarize existing open source projects powered by Teaclave. Last but not 
least, we also attended SGX Workshop and ApacheCon to introduce our project. 
Overall we're very glad to see the development of the project and growth of the 
community.

In the year of 2021, we need to focus on the maturity of the project and 
building a healthier and more sustainable community. Therefore, I summarize 
several to-do lists here. There are mainly four parts. The first three are 
about the project's features and enhancements, which include Teaclave FaaS 
framework, Teaclave SGX SDK, and Teaclave TrustZone SDK (this project just 
completed the donation voting, more things need to do later). The last one is 
about community buildup. Yes, this is a very long list. Please let me know if 
you are interested in. I'm more than happy to help you if not familiar with 
Teaclave, SGX, or Rust. At last, this is not a complete list. Feel free to 
comment and discuss in this thread.
