## NuttX
NuttX is a mature, real-time embedded operating system (RTOS).
NuttX has been incubating since 2019-12-09.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. Clear any potential infringing use of the NuttX trademark
2. Determine the form and location of NuttX releases
3. Make the first release under Apache
### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
None
### How has the community developed since the last report?
* We have extended invitations to two new committers.
* One of the new invited committers, Yamamoto Takashi, has accepted,
filed an ICLA with the ASF, and has been added to the roster
successfully.
* The other new invited committer has accepted but is still
currently undergoing the ICLA and account creation process.
* We continue to see new contributors to the project through GitHub.
* Most communications have moved from old venues to
dev@nuttx.apache.org. Currently this list is the primary home of
all development discussions and users questions. Some users
continue to post questions to the old Google Group but we let them
know about the move, so as to consolidate the project in one
place.
* GitHub's PRs and Issues also have their own discussions.
### How has the project developed since the last report?
* Regarding making our first release as Apache NuttX (Incubating),
the community has agreed on a branch date (April 6th) and a
tentative release date of end of April. Furthermore, we have
agreed to reinstate the bimonthly releases that NuttX was making
prior to becoming a Podling, subsequent to this first release.
* One of our PPMC members, Brennan Ashton, has volunteered to be
Release Manager (RM) for this first release, provided that we make
progress on licensing. To that end, several community members have
invested considerable time with Fossology to qualify license
headers of various files. As we have nearly 90,000 files in our
repository, we expect this work to continue for quite some time,
but the goal is to make additional progress at each release.
* The nightly build is up and running: https://s.apache.org/wnv2u
Our Continuous Integration (CI) system continues to receive
various tweaks and fixes. Currently, our automated nightly tests
are showing various failures but this is gradually improving.
* The community continues to collaborate on various technical
improvements, bug fixes, and new architectures. Contributions are
flowing regularly as Pull Requests (PRs) in GitHub and as patches
emailed to the dev list.

2. Grow the community (committers, contributors, users)
3. Publish Apache release
### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
No.
### How has the community developed since the last report?
- Since last report, one external contributor has became our regular
contributor.
- Compared to the last report, we have seen more pull request from
external contributors.
- We received emails from some companies which are interested in the
project and willing to make some contributions for the secure computing
community.
- Since we are mainly working on GitHub, with the help of the INFRA team,
we can sync the notifications of GitHub with our mailing list.
### How has the project developed since the last report?
- Since last report, the whole project has been refactored to be more
functional, as well as readable and approachable for new contributors.
- We have rewrote the framework for implementing enclave services. Also,
we have redesigned current services into seven core services
including access control, authentication, execution, frontend,
management,
scheduler, and storage service. Communication protocols between services
are defined in protobuf.
- RPC between services has been redesigned to supported TLS-based
attestation.
- We have added DCAP attestation algorithm in the platform so that people
can deploy the system in environments without Intel's attestation service.
- Communication between app and enclave has been also redesigned
with better APIs.
- All updates is currently in the `develop` branch. We plan to merge
into `master` when main refactoring is done.
