Here's a draft of the board report for January. Please let me know if you think there's anything else we might add.
-------------------------------- ## Description: Apache TinkerPop is a graph computing framework for both graph databases (OLTP) and graph analytic systems (OLAP). ## Activity: TinkerPop has added a new committer in Robert Dale. TinkerPop released versions 3.1.5 and 3.2.3. New developed has started on the follow-on releases to those versions and work for the new major line of 3.3.0 is under way. It was nice to see some additional growth in the number of TinkerPop providers - those who implement and expand on TinkerPop interfaces. OrientDB, a distributed multi-model database, announced official support for Apache TinkerPop. It was also announced that HGraphDB had been released which provides a TinkerPop implementation over Apache HBase. This news was recently reported on the ASF blog[1]. As an update to brand management issues mentioned in the previous report, recall that the TinkerPop PMC had become aware of two individuals not acknowledging our marks with respect to products sold with TinkerPop graphics. While one of the two was quick to respond to the issue and correct it, we found the other unresponsive. As we made several attempts at contact via email, we aren't really sure if there is much else that we can reasonably do. The mailing address on the website doesn't look legitimate, there is no phone number to call. The site itself looks somewhat incomplete in many ways (e.g. lorem ipsum text), so perhaps this is not worth pursuing any further. ## Issues: There are no issues requiring board attention at this time. ## Releases: - 3.1.5 (October 17, 2016) - 3.2.3 (October 17, 2016) ## PMC/Committer: - Last PMC addition was Jason Plurad - August 2016 - Last committer addition was Robert Dale - October 2016 ## Links [1] https://blogs.apache.org/hbase/entry/hgraphdb_hbase_as_a_tinkerpop
