All, HBase submits a report to the ASF board once a quarter, to inform the board about project health. I'm sending the report to the user@ and dev@ mailing lists because you are the project. If you have any questions about the report or the running of the project, you can pose them to me or any other PMC member or committer, or send an email to [email protected], which every PMC member subscribes to.
Thanks, Misty -- Apache HBase is an open-source, distributed, versioned, non-relational database. Apache HBase gives you low latency random access to billions of rows with millions of columns atop non-specialized hardware. hbase-thirdparty is a set of internal artifacts used by the project to mitigate the impact of our dependency choices on the wider ecosystem.
