Hi all, thanks for the help in gathering our information
for the quarterly DB project report to the board. Below
is the report I submitted; please let me know of any
errors or omissions.
thanks,
bryan
=============================================
## Description:
The mission of the Apache DB project is to create and maintain
commercial-quality, open-source, database solutions based on software licensed
to the Foundation, for distribution at no charge to the public.
The Apache DB TLP consists of the following subprojects:
o Derby : a relational database implemented entirely in Java.
o JDO : focused on building the API and the TCK for compatibility
testing of Java Data Object implementations providing data
persistence.
o Torque : an object-relational mapper for Java.
## Project Status:
Current project status: Ongoing, with moderate activity
Issues for the board: none
## Membership Data:
Apache DB was founded 2002-07-16 (22 years ago)
There are currently 48 committers and 46 PMC members in this project.
The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 1:1.
Community changes, past quarter:
- Max Philipp Wriedt was added to the PMC on 2024-07-03

## Project Activity:
Torque 6.0 was released on 2024-05-22. It contained a number of
performance improvements and bug fixes.
Optimizing and extending the TCK remains the focus of the JDO
community. This spring the JDO community refreshed their page
on the Apache DOAP registry. The JDO team are also
continuing to work with the DataNucleus community to resolve issues.
The Derby community added support for timestamp types introduced by Java
8, thanks to a recent code contribution. The Derby community continues
their work to keep Derby up to date with new Java releases, including
JDK 22 and 23 this spring.
## Community Health:
DB project health was good this spring: a Torque committer
was added to the DB PMC and a new Torque release was made.
