## Description: The mission of Yetus is a collection of libraries and tools that enable contribution and release processes for software projects
## Issues: There are no issues requiring board attention. ## Membership Data: Apache Yetus was founded 2015-09-15 (5 years ago) There are currently 12 committers and 9 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is 4:3. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members. Last addition was Akira Ajisaka on 2018-12-17. - No new committers. Last addition was Akira Ajisaka on 2018-02-06. ## Project Activity: The Apache Yetus 0.13.0 release was cut on 2020-11-27 and announced as official on 2020-12-06. It is by far the release with the most JIRA issues and code changes since project inception. While there are significant features added, there was also a lot of code removed and documentation enhancements as we push towards making the project easier to use and adopt. Part of that work included working with Legal on LEGAL-537 which codifies our intent to publish a GitHub Action into the GitHub Marketplace--a first for an ASF project. (At the moment we are prevented from publishing on the Marketplace as it looks like the agreement needs to get re-signed, but we are unsure as to why. Not an issue for the board; just an FYI if you go looking for the Github Action in the Marketplace and isn't there yet. :) ) With the publishing of the GitHub Action, we will almost certainly need to get closer to the projects original founding goal of quarterly releases. A lot of work was put into this release to speed up the release process, so we will hopefully see that work pay off. ## Community Health: As usual during a release effort, metrics pick up substantially: * dev@yetus.apache.org had a 112% increase in traffic in the past quarter (53 emails compared to 25): * 91 issues opened in JIRA, past quarter (333% increase) * 94 issues closed in JIRA, past quarter (308% increase) * 128 commits in the past quarter (753% increase) * 99 PRs opened on GitHub, past quarter (518% increase) * 99 PRs closed on GitHub, past quarter (607% increase) The only bad part is that most of the heavy lifting is still being done by a small group of people: * 4 code contributors in the past quarter (no change)
