This was extracted (@ 2025-07-16 22:10) 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. ASF Members may have access to a private draft of these still-unapproved minutes.

WARNING: these pages may omit some original contents of the minutes.
This is due to changes in the layout of the source minutes over the years. Fixes are being worked on.

BifroMQ is a Java-based, high-performance, distributed MQTT broker with
native multi-tenancy support, designed for large-scale connections and
message delivery.

BifroMQ has been incubating since 2025-04-22.

### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

 1. Successful repository migration and completion of the first release
 process
 2. Website building and grow the community
 3. Complete the Trademark Assignment process

### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?

 Baidu manages the SGA, CCLA, and Trademark Assignment as a unified
 "Corporate Contract" workflow. The SGA and CCLA documents have been
 successfully submitted to the ASF.

 We are eager to advance the Trademark Assignment process to finalize the
 Corporate Contract workflow, rather than delaying it until graduation from
 the incubator.

### How has the community developed since the last report?

 - Added 2 contributors since incubation began

### How has the project developed since the last report?

 (apache/bifromq, apache/bifromq-sites).
