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.

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.

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).

StormCrawler

16 Oct 2024

StormCrawler is a collection of resources for building low-latency,
customisable and scalable web crawlers on Apache Storm.

StormCrawler has been incubating since 2024-03-19.

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

 1. Community building
 2.
 3.

### 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?
 Nothing new to report. One contributor showed up and provided some PRs,
 which is a good sign.

### How has the project developed since the last report?
 A first release was made.

 A slight source of concern is that 3 out of the initial 5 committers have
 so far shown no or very little involvement in the project since its
 incubation, which makes it even more urgent to increase the committer
base.

 We got some involvement (issues, simple PRs) from outside the usual
 suspects. We need to increase our outreach to attract more users /
 developers to foster a healthy community development.

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

 We have published our first release (3.0). We are currently working on
 adding the feedback received for 3.0.
