Hi Florian, Thank you for drafting and submitting the report.
I just have some small edits for Project Activity and added some clarification to the Project Status sections, and wondering if you would still be able to do a quick update? Here are the sections with the edits added: ## Project Activity: TinkerPop released versions 3.5.6, 3.6.3, and 3.6.4. in the last quarter. These releases were mostly maintenance releases. One noteworthy improvement in 3.5.6 and 3.6.3 is a new multi-architecture Docker image for Gremlin Server which supports ARM64 in addition to AMD64. This release also included important performance improvements for Gremlin Console and TraversalStrategy applications for users and providers. 3.6.4 was a patch release that fixed a critical bug in the Java driver and a memory leak in the .NET driver. We are closing in on releasing 3.7.0 shortly, a release that includes work from over a year. Major improvements in this release are support for JDK 17 and Groovy 4. This release will also include usability improvements in areas that users often request, such as support for string manipulations directly in Gremlin, returning vertices and edges with their properties by default instead of only as reference elements, which often led to confusion, especially for new users. We have also been working on adding transaction support to TinkerGraph, the TinkerPop reference graph implementation. Together with 3.7.0, we plan to also publish maintenance releases 3.5.7 and 3.6.5. In the wider TinkerPop ecosystem, we learned that Aerospike released the first version of their graph database which supports TinkerPop. New graph database.[1] ## Project Status: Ongoing Activity is relatively high, considering we are actively working on releases, have daily commits and development discussions on the dev list. We also have an active user community on Discord where developers and users engage on questions, as well as regular live events on Twitch for knowledge-sharing. Hope you enjoy the time off!
