Hi all,

Please see the July quarterly report draft below, and let me know if there
is anything missing or needs updated.

--------------------------------------------------------

## Description:
Apache TinkerPop is a graph computing framework for both graph
databases(OLTP) and graph analytic systems (OLAP).

## Project Status:
The project is ongoing with relatively high activities this past quarter.

## Issues:
There are no issues requiring board attention.

## Membership Data:
Community changes, past quarter:
- No new PMC members. Last addition was Yang Xia on 2023-03-15.
- No new committer. Last addition was Cole Greer on 2023-05-30

## Project Activity:
We released TinkerPop 3.6.7 and 3.7.2 on 2024-04-08, which was a set of
minor releases focused on resolving existing bugs and performance
improvements.

The community is in active discussion and development for the next major
release of TinkerPop 4.0, with major bodies of work aiming at increasing
maintainability, usability, extensibility, and security. Completed works
include switching to HTTP/1.1 [1] in Gremlin Server and Gremlin Java
driver, as well as standardizing on gremlin-language scripts in favor of
bytecode and groovy scripts to reduce complexity and improve security [2].
Additionally, discussions and development have started as an extension of
the above work, such as updating authorization implementation [3] and
simplifying client APIs [4].

### Releases:
3.6.7 was released on 2024-04-08.
3.7.2 was released on 2024-04-08.

## Community Health:
The TinkerPop Community continues to have a steady flow of activity from
core committers and occasional contributions from outside sources that are
in line with previous quarters. We pay particular attention to first-time
contributors with the hope of developing a positive experience with our
project to entice them to return with further work.  We have seen some
repeat contributions recently which is encouraging. To encourage and
facilitate community contributions, we recently added a PR template [5] to
guide new and returning community members.

We hosted another live event on Twitch [6] as part of the post-release
Contributorcast series. All the recordings are available on our YouTube
channel [7]:
