Report from the Apache Lucy project [Marvin Humphrey] ## Description: The Apache Lucy search engine library provides full-text search for dynamic programming languages. It is a "loose" C port of the Apache Lucene search engine library for Java. ## Activity: Development activity continues to focus on adding new language bindings, with Go being the top priority and Python next in line. A "Virtual MeetUp" via Google Hangouts is scheduled for Tuesday April 7. It is hard to get Lucy's developers to congregate at an ApacheCon or another conference; instead, we will attempt to build on our positive experiences with the virtual Lucy Book Club. Naturally, any discussions will be taken back to the dev list, just as they would for an in-person MeetUp. Commit activity for this quarter was below average. The last several releases were maintenance releases; making a feature release may provide a spark. ## Issues: There are no issues requiring board attention at this time. ## PMC/Committership changes: - Currently 14 committers and 13 PMC members in the project. - No new PMC members added in the last 3 months - Last PMC addition was Tim Wilkens at Thu Oct 02 2014 - No new committers added in the last 3 months - Last committer addition was Tim Wilkens at Fri Sep 26 2014 ## Releases: - 2014-12-30 Apache Lucy 0.4.2 - 2014-12-30 Apache Clownfish 0.4.2 ## Mailing list activity: - dev@lucy.apache.org: - 64 subscribers (down -2 in the last 3 months): - 72 emails sent to list (87 in previous quarter) - user@lucy.apache.org: - 91 subscribers (up 1 in the last 3 months): - 22 emails sent to list (14 in previous quarter) - issues@lucy.apache.org: - 22 subscribers (up 0 in the last 3 months): - 24 emails sent to list (17 in previous quarter) ## JIRA activity: - 2 JIRA tickets created in the last 3 months - 0 JIRA tickets closed/resolved in the last 3 months
