Please find the draft for the January board report below. I'm a bit behind on things so this draft is a little later than usual. I will submit it tomorrow. If adjustments are needed after that they can be made in time for the meeting I think.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- ## Description: Apache TinkerPop is a graph computing framework for both graph databases (OLTP) and graph analytic systems (OLAP). ## Activity: TinkerPop is currently in the process of releasing 3.4.13 and 3.5.2 with the idea that 3.6.0 will follow quite shortly. We do not expect any further releases on the 3.4.x line of code. As the log4j security issue was central to concerns of many projects last quarter, it seems worth mentioning that TinkerPop was generally unaffected by that problem. Both the 3.4.x and 3.5.x lines are on log4j 1.x and 3.6.0 had already been migrated away from log4j to logback as we found the migration path to log4j 2.x a bit difficult. We started a Discord server some months ago to offer another alternative for support within our user community. We've found it to be a successful way to interact with users who have questions. Server membership has grown to over 250 users at this point. We learned of a new Gremlin IDE that has been developed called G.V()[1] which aims to make writing and debugging Gremlin queries easier. Tools like this one greatly help with user adoption of TinkerPop. We added a new committer, Lyndon Bauto, who has contributed some excellent work to the project around gremlin-python, as well as other libraries in the wider TinkerPop community. ## Issues: There are no issues requiring board attention at this time. ## Releases: - 3.4.12 (July 19, 2021) - 3.5.1 (July 19, 2021) ## PMC/Committer: - Last PMC addition was Kelvin Lawrence/Josh Shinavier - June 2021 - Last committer addition was Lyndon Bauto - December 2021 ## Links [1] https://gdotv.com/
