Hi all, here is the board report for this quarter.

## Description:
Apache TsFile is a columnar storage file format designed specifically for time
series data, with a focus on efficient storage, high throughput for read and
write operations, and compatibility with various data processing frameworks.
TsFile is intended to integrate seamlessly with existing time series
databases, such as IoTDB, and data processing frameworks like Apache Spark and
Apache Flink, facilitating the adoption of TsFile in IoT big data processing
ecosystems.TsFile aims to become a widely adopted standard for time series
data storage.

## Project Status:
Current project status: Mostly Okay
Issues for the board: no

## Membership Data:
Apache TsFile was founded 2023-11-15 (a year ago)
There are currently 18 committers and 18 PMC members in this project.
The Committer-to-PMC ratio is 1:1.

Community changes, past quarter:
- No new PMC members. Last addition was Gaofei Cao on 2023-11-15.
- No new committers were added.

## Project Activity:
1.1.0 was released on 2024-11-10.

Introduce short-circuit evaluation and use Freemarker to generate
type-specific filters to improve the query performance

Utilize the KMP and BM algorithms to significantly optimize the performance of
LIKE predicate execution.

Introduce an optional encryption module to make TsFile more secure.

Support dictionary encoding for newly introduced STRING data type.

## Community Health:
The activity level of the mailing list has declined a bit, as the development
of TsFile V4  almost finished. There aren't many design points that need
discussion.

[email protected] had a 47% decrease in traffic in the past quarter (64
emails compared to 119):

We are designing the new read and write interfaces for TsFile, aiming to make
the interfaces in different programming languages more consistent in use. Both
for V3 (Point Tree model) and V4 (Device Table model).
