None.
### How has the community developed since the last report?
Community development wasn't grown last months. The main reason is
probably
due to core committers were engaged in a 1.0 release tests,documentatation
and website update. But there were some initial developers requests to
join and contribute during last months.
### How has the project developed since the last report?
The project tests were extended, examples added, documentation and website
updated, release 1.0.0. prepared.

### IPMC/Shepherd notes:
johndament: Releasing a 1.0 should not be a requirement to graduate. If
the podling understands the release process, that is enough.
A Java API for NLU applications
NLPCraft has been incubating since 2020-02-13.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. Community growth.
2. Stable release.
### 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 had several active collaborators since the last report, specifically
working on our Python support. We expect them to reach the committer level
soon. However, the Python support in NLPCraft will like undergo the
architectural change that may delay this process.
### How has the project developed since the last report?
NLPCraft community decided to make a deep refactoring in the project
based on the initial user feedback. The primary goal here is to
significantly simplify the usage patterns and provide better support for
human curation and dialog support. The design & planning for this
refactoring resulted in low commit activity in the last 60 days.

### IPMC/Shepherd notes:
Apache NLPCraft is an open source library for adding natural language Interface to modern applications. Apache NLPCraft has been incubating since 2020-02-13. ### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating: 1. Community growth & outreach. 2. Get to the point with multiple release managers. 3. Presenting the project at ApacheCon/ApacheAsia 2021. ### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of? Project have several new contributors that we are expecting to formally join the project/ASF in the future. These are individuals outside of the original NLPCraft community. We are also getting number of offline contributions when it comes to ideas, documentation and website. We are working on promoting these contributions and inviting these individuals to be more active. We need, however, to get much better at the general project outreach via meetups, conferences, etc. Some of the conversations happen on Gitter. Project has 8 forks on the Github. ### How has the community developed since the last report? Project produced 2 releases. Both releases were an interim, bug fix releases. So far, they were produced by the same release manager (Aaron Radzinski). The community is working on the major release 0.7.5 right now that should go GA in the April 2021 with significant changes and improvements (all of which are reflected in JIRA tickets for 0.7.5 version). At this point, the community does not have a formalized roadmap with many internal discussions happening on Slack channels. We are generally expecting to formalize the long-term roadmap towards 1.0.0 release with hopefully a larger community around the project. Community is actively working on 0.7.5 release that should be sent for a vote in the coming days. ### How has the project developed since the last report? ### How would you assess the podling's maturity?
