This was extracted (@ 2021-06-16 23:10) from a list of minutes
which have been approved by the Board.
Please Note
The Board typically approves the minutes of the previous meeting at the
beginning of every Board meeting; therefore, the list below does not
normally contain details from the minutes of the most recent Board meeting.
Meeting times vary, the exact schedule is available to ASF Members and Officers, search for "calendar" in the Foundation's private index page (svn:foundation/private-index.html).
Report was filed, but display is awaiting the approval of the Board minutes.

- We are working on developing 0.12.0.
- Some interesting features are merged into the main branch,
e.g., the UDF (User Define Function), Cluster module, Integration with
Apache Zeppelin.
## Community Health:
According to Github's statistics, the number of IoTDB's code contributors
reaches to 100!
The number of discussions on the dev@ mailing list, the number of PRs
decreases, the Chinese New Year holiday is one of the reasons.
However, we can see the number of emails in the review@ mailing list
increases, it is good because it indicates more discussions happen.
The number of opened issues also increases, which indicates more and
more user requirements are received.

The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 3:2. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members (project graduated recently). - No new committers were added. ## Project Activity: Software development activity: - We released the first release 0.11.0 after graduation on 2020-11-25. - We are making release candidates for 0.11.1 (RC1 vote now). - We have added Apache Pulsar integration example in the master branch. - We are working on developing 0.12.0. Meetups and Conferences: - A PMC member attended Apache Pulsar Asia 2020, giving a talk on Apache IoTDB integrating with Apache Pulsar. - A meetup was held in Beijing China on Nov 29th, for the local Foo User Group. A PMC (in Germany) and a Committer were invited to share some technology details of IoTDB. Two Chinese users shared their use experiences of Using IoTDB. ## Community Health: Overall community health is good. We have been performing extensive outreach to related projects, in order to attract new contributors. However, we need more contributors to update our website, maintain our CI and news or other articles.
## Description: The mission of Apache IoTDB is the creation and maintenance of software related to an IoT native database with high performance for data management and analysis ## Issues: no issue. ## Membership Data: Apache IoTDB was founded 2020-09-16 (2 months ago) There are currently 35 committers and 23 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 3:2. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members (project graduated recently). - No new committers were added. ## Project Activity: - We are releasing the first major version of IoTDB after its graduation, v0.11.0. A vote for the version has begun. - In the version, 16 new features are introduced, include: - new compression method - enhanced deletion and query SQLs - data compaction in the backend etc.. - There are two talks about IoTDB on Apache RoadShow in China, one is for the project and the other is for the community. ## Community Health: - 141 emails sent in Sep while 127 mails sent in Oct. Both the number of participators are 33. But, indeed we saw many new participators in Oct. Besides, we think the number of the email is reasonable as in Sep we have many votes for graduation. - 79 PRs are merged in Sep while 177 PRs are merged in Oct. - Another good thing is some non-developers join the community, for modifying the documents, etc..
## Description:
The Apache IoTDB is an IoT native database with high performance
for data management and analysis on both the edge and the cloud.
## Issues:
There are no new issues requiring board attention at this time.
## Membership Data:
Apache IoTDB was founded 2020-09-16 (a month ago)
There are currently 35 committers and 23 PMC members in this project.
The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 3:2.
Community changes, past quarter:
- No new PMC members (project graduated recently).
- No new committers were added.
- Chao Wang was added as a committer on 2020-09-03 before IoTDB graduated.
## Project Activity:
Software development activity:
- 0.10.1 was released on 2020-08-23.
- We are organizing the design documents on IoTDB's cwiki space
- We are working for v0.11
- Two proposals are submitted and accepted for Outreachy Intern
Meetups and Conferences:
- We had two public talks about IoTDB, one is "Use cases and
optimizations of IoTDB" on ApacheCon 2020, and another is
"IoTDB and Hadoop: Connecting the edge and the cloud open source
ecosystem for IIoT" on Hadoop meetup in Shanghai, China.
## Community Health:
As IoTDB graduated less than 30 days, the statistics provided by
the Board Report Wizard seems incorrect. I count the metrics manually.
As IoTDB has report in Sep, I just count the data in one month:
- Commit activity:
- 434 commits in the last month
- GitHub PR activity:
- 136 PRs opened on GitHub, last month
- 108 PRs closed on GitHub, last month
- JIRA activity:
- 81 issues opened in JIRA, last month
- Mailing list (dev@):
- 196 mails were sent (down 35) and there are 35 participants (down 6)
We think the data fluctuation is reasonable as (1) there are some
participants from China and they have 8 days National Holiday,
(2) there are some Chinese graduate students in the community and they
have summar holiday and are busy at the beginning of a new semester.

an email to the dev@ list with a list.
IoTDB is a data store for managing large amounts of time series data such as
timestamped data from IoT sensors in industrial applications.
IoTDB has been incubating since 2018-11-18.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. Learn to discuss things on the mailing list, rather than just post an
ISSUE created or closed message, or discuss on Github.
2. More committers should know how to release a version. And more PPMC
should join to vote.
3. Write more documentation to help new contributors.
### 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?
1. New contributors appears, e.g., HT Hou for PR527, liutaohua for PR578,

### IPMC/Shepherd notes:
IoTDB is a data store for managing large amounts of time series data such
as timestamped data from IoT sensors in industrial applications.
IoTDB has been incubating since 2018-11-18.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. Make the community (both the contributors and committers/PPMCs)
more diverse and learn to discuss things on the mailing list.
2. More committers should know how to release a version.
3. Write more documentation to help new contributors.
### 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?
1. Some new contributors joined the community. E.g., PR#339 comes
from a new contributor and it is really an interesting feature.
2. Some contributors (who are not committers yet) are more active
than before. E.g., Boris Zhu and Jack Tsai.
3. More users began to report their issues. E.g., issue #171, #184
and #186.
As all the above contributions and contributors are not from the
institutions/companies where initial committers are, we think it is a
good signal that indicates more guys noticing the community.
### How has the project developed since the last report?
1. IoTDB releases its first Apache version: v0.8.0 !
2. IoTDB is more stable and the performance is far better than
before. However, the version is incompatible with previous version (which
are released before IoTDB is denoted to ASF).
3. In v0.8.0, many issues are resolved (see release notes:
http://iotdb.apache.org/#/Materials/Release%20Notes)

Comments: Good to see your first release out, but more active
involvement by the PPMC is needed in veting releases. While it improved,
still more discussion needs to happen on the mailing list.
- [X] (iotdb) Christofer Dutz
Comments: I really would like to see more mailing list usage, cause
the number of commit messages is in strong contrast to the discussions.

### IPMC/Shepherd notes:
IoTDB is a data store for managing large amounts of time series data such as
timestamped data from IoT sensors in industrial applications.
IoTDB has been incubating since 2018-11-18.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. Learn to how to release a formal version;
2. Declare a clear release roadmap;
3. Attract more contributors joining the community.
### Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
No.
### How has the community developed since the last report?
We can find that IoTDB is becoming a new choice when users need a time
series database. New users from UCI (IoTDB-104), Sangfor Inc., University
of Liverpool (IoTDB-94) etc. are testing and proposing issues for IoTDB.
### How has the project developed since the last report?
1. IoTDB is more stable than before. Now it works well on a VM provided
by Apache (iotdb-vm.apache.org).
2. A distributed version is almost done (in the 'cluster branch').
3. In the last 3 months, we opened 78 JIRA issues and resolved/closed 40
JIRA issues.
Created Resolved
Mar 2019 42 26
Apr 2019 15 6
May 2019 21 8
4. In the last 3 months, we merged/closed 107 PRs in Github (seen at Jun

IPMC/Shepherd notes:
Christofer Dutz: Allmost no discussions on list, requested the podling to
move discussions to the dev list.
Dave Fisher: It looks like Christofer's request is successful so far. No
discussion yet if any contributors are looking like good committers/PPMC
members.
IoTDB is a data store for managing large amounts of time series data such as
timestamped data from IoT sensors in industrial applications.
IoTDB has been incubating since 2018-11-18.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Release the first version;
2. Complement the left English documents and supply more design documents
to help new developers.
3. Attract more contributors;
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
- no.
How has the community developed since the last report?
- The code repository has been transferred to the
` apache/incubator-iotdb` repository.
- The website of `iotdb.apache.org` is updated:
(1) Document with English version is available;
(2) Other introduction pages, such as `Tools`, `Community` and
` Development` are updated.
- Mail list:
(1) 490 emails sent by 26 people, divided into 350 topics; (318 mails
are from GitBox, for notifying code-review results).
(2) a new mail list reviews@iotdb.apache.org is created;
(3) two new contributors are involved: Jiaye Wu, Felix Cheung;
- The community begin to use JIRA issues and Confluence.
How has the project developed since the last report?
- All source codes are re-organized:
(1) package names are changed to `org.apache.iotdb.*`;
(2) All textual files are attached with ASF header;
- Apache Jenkins Pipeline was firstly passed at 2019.01.22
