Dear community, As part of our responsibilities as a newly graduated Top-Level Project, we need to submit our 2nd report to the Apache Board this month. I have drafted a report as attached.
Please take a look and share any comments or suggestions. In particular, let me know if: - There are corrections or updates needed for project activity, releases, or community changes. - Anything should be highlighted more (or less) for the Board’s attention. The submitted content is editable until Oct.8th, so any feedback before then would be appreciated. Thanks, Zhaofeng ======================= # Apache Teaclave Board Report - October 2025 ## Description Apache Teaclave provides SDKs for building memory-safe applications on Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs). ## Project Status **Status:** New Apache Teaclave graduated as a Top-Level Project on August 21, 2025. Since graduation, the community has: 1. Completed the transition to TLP infrastructure, including GitHub repositories, distribution servers, website updates, and project documentation. 2. Released `teaclave-trustzone-sdk v0.6.0`, the first release as a TLP. ## Summary of Project Health and Status Since the last report, Apache Teaclave has successfully released `teaclave-trustzone-sdk v0.6.0`, its first release as a Top-Level Project. The community remains active with steady development and moderate mailing list discussions. Current focus areas include strengthening coding practices for the Rust codebase and improving the onboarding experience to allow users to build and experiment with minimal effort. ## Issues for Board Attention There are no Board-level issues at this time. ## Recent Releases - 2025-09-12: Teaclave TrustZone SDK v0.6.0 (first TLP release) ## Project Activity ### Development Activity - Ongoing improvements to the build/test environment for TEE applications. - Eliminated all `cargo clippy` warnings and enforced stricter CI checks. - Approximately 50 commits merged in the past three months. ### Community Activity - Developer mailing list: moderate activity (~15 threads in the past 30 days). - No new committers or PMC members since the last report. ## Current Plans - **Short term (Q4):** - Continue enforcing strict CI checks (clippy, lint, tests) to enhance code quality. - Prepare the next quarterly release of Teaclave TrustZone SDK, aligned with OP-TEE’s release schedule. - Improve onboarding experience for building and running TEE examples with minimal effort. - **Medium term:** - Open source additional real-world SDK use cases (e.g., Web3 scenarios). - Maintain alignment with OP-TEE’s quarterly release cadence. ## Community Changes - Current: 18 PMC members; no new additions since the last report. ## Project Branding - No branding issues. - Website and download pages comply with Apache branding requirements. ## Legal Issues - No legal issues to report. ## Infrastructure - No infrastructure concerns at this time.
