Incubator PMC report for July 2013
http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/July2013

--

Marmotta

An Open Platform for Linked Data.

Marmotta has been incubating since 2012-12-03.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

 1. Ingest code and clear IP.
 2. A release
 3. Build dev and PMC.

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware
of?

  No such issues.

How has the community developed since the last report?

  * dev@marmotta.i.a.o continues with high traffic but slightly decreasing:
    Apr. 265, May 161, Jun. 137. We expect the numbers to raise again with the
    preparation of the next release.
  * Two new persons have been elected as new committer and PPMC members:
    Raffaele Palmieri (Eustema Spa) on May 21st, 2013, and Peter Ansell
    (University of Queensland) on Jun 24th, 2013.

How has the project developed since the last report?

  * The first release (3.0.0-incubating) has been published on April 24th,
    2013. Since that the project is actively working of different
    improvements, bug fixes and new features, registering 266 issues at jira
    (60% resolved).

  * The next release (3.1.0-incubation) is planned for the upcoming weeks
    (http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-marmotta-dev/201307.mbox/%3C51D40104.3060203%40apache.org%3E).

  * The first two most important issues the project targets to move towards
    graduation have been already achieved; and the third one, dev community,
    is being addressed too. Therefore the project has already started to
    discuss about such option
    (http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-marmotta-dev/201305.mbox/%3C51A35FFA.2070707%40apache.org%3E).

Date of last release:

  April 24th, 2013.
