- Sai Hemanth Gantasala was added as committer on 2022-02-23

## Project Activity:
There were multiple minor releases from the project last year. With last being
hive-storage-2.7.3 release on 2021-08-03. There has been no major release from
the project in over three years. There is an effort underway in the community
to do a release from branch-3 with discussion and work ongoing at dev@ list.
Some members of the community have started collaborating using slack to speed
up that effort. Additionally, there are also discussions ongoing to do a
release from the main branch.


## Community Health:
Continuing with the trend from previous quarters activity is down on both
dimensions of discussions (mailing lists) as well as dev activity (jira, PRs).
Decrease in traffic over various lists is in order of 20-40% Although decrease
in activity has continued over previous few quarters, we still saw nearly ~300
emails on dev list and nearly 160 commits in repository over last quarter.

## Community Health:
Activity is down on both dimensions of discussions (mailing lists) as well as
dev activity (jira, PRs). Most of this can be attributed to holiday season.

## Project Activity:
Project made a maintenance release on Hive 2 line with 2.3.9 release on June
10th.

## Community Health:
Dev activity on jira and github is relatively flat (only slightly down) which
illustrates sustained dev activity on the project. Other activity metrics for
project has gone down with reduced email volume on dev and user lists. It is
likely because of increasing maturity of project and is not considered a cause
of concern at this time.

 within the coming week.

* HIVE-5087 has been committed to the Hive 0.12.0 release branch.
 This patch changes the name of the "nPath" UDF to "matchpath".
 This was done to honor a promise made by lawyers representing the
 ASF and Hive PMC to Teradata's legal team in late August.

DESCRIPTION

Apache Hive is a data warehouse written on top of Apache Hadoop. It
provides SQL to query and manage data (in the form of tables and

metastore containing metadata information about the stored data.

RELEASES

* The last release of Apache Hive was version 0.10.0, released on
 January 11th, 2013.

COMMUNITY

* In early February the PMC voted to approve two related measures:

** Measure 1: Amend Hive Bylaws to Define Submodules and Submodule
             Committers

  Passage of this measure will result in the Apache Hive Project
  Bylaws being amended with the following changes:

  http://s.apache.org/WKU

  The motivation for these changes was discussed in the following
  email thread which appeared on the hive-dev and hcatalog-dev
  mailing lists:

  http://s.apache.org/Ht0

** Measure 2: Create HCatalog Submodule and Adopt HCatalog Codebase

  This measure provides for 1) the establishment of an HCatalog
  submodule in the Apache Hive Project, 2) the adoption of the Apache
  HCatalog codebase into the Hive HCatalog submodule, and 3) adding
  all currently active HCatalog committers as submodule committers on
  the Hive HCatalog submodule.

* The HCatalog PPMC subsequently voted to merge the project into Hive
 as a Hive submodule. The voting thread can be viewed here:
 http://s.apache.org/5WX

* Development activity continues as can be seen from the following
 report: http://s.apache.org/z8E

* A user-group meetup was held on February 12th in San Francisco.
 100 people RSVPed for this event.

 Palo Alto. Currently 70 people have RSVPed for the event with
 another 30 people on the waiting list.

* Existing committer Kevin Wilfong was added to the PMC

* Gang Tim Liu was added as a new committer.

* The following PMC members requested that their membership status
 be changed to emeritus: Prasad Chakka (prasadc), Zheng Shao (zshao),
 John Sichi (jvs), and Paul Yang (pauly).

* PMC composition has changed due to the aforementioned changes,
 as well as several members changing their affiliations. The current
 affiliations of PMC members are: Facebook (5), Qubole (2),
 HortonWorks (1), Citus Data (1), and Media6Degrees (1).

hadoop.

Hive became a apache TLP on 2010-09-22. So, it has a new PMC.

Releases:
0.6.0 branched and we are priming up to release it pretty soon.

New PMC:
   Namit Jain (Facebook)
   John Sichi (Facebook)
   Zheng Shao (Facebook)
   Edward Capriolo (Media6Degrees)
   Raghotham Murthy (Facebook)
   Ning Zhang (Facebook)
   Paul Yang (Facebook)
   He Yongqiang (Facebook)
   Prasad Chakka (Facebook)
   Joydeep Sensarma (Facebook)
   Ashish Thusoo (Facebook)

New committers:
 All the above PMC members.

Community:
* 217 contributors (commented, filed bugs or contributed to Hive).
 This was 164 at the last report time.

It appears that the PMC is not particularly diverse, and the PMC should endeavor to become more diverse.
