### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
### How has the community developed since the last report?
A developer recently joined the community, volunteering for the
implementation of the elastic scaling of the data store.

### How has the community developed since the last report?
The community has been active since the last report. We have started to use the mailing list to exchange ideas of different development issues in Sedona. Several contributors, users and committers have joined the discussion on the mailing list: https://lists.apache.org/list.html?dev@sedona.apache.org
It is also worth noting that we are still working on importing the code into the incubator ASF GitHub repo. It took us several weeks to collect CLAs and SGAs from the major participating parties. I believe we have collected sufficient evidence to prove that the artifact is ready to be imported and the secretary has confirmed the CLA and SGA. We just created a JIRA ticket for the infra team and are waiting for them to import our codebase into ASF GitHub: https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/INFRA/issues/INFRA-20786?filter=allopenissues
### How has the project developed since the last report?
The project made a good progress. In the past month, we accepted several patches from Kengo Seki and Sachio Wakai. In the meantime, Committer Netanel is working on a large PR to replace a 3rd party dependency JTSplus with JTS in order to improve the performance. Committer Pawel is working on another large PR to carry out the Sedona Python support for Spark 3.0.

### IPMC/Shepherd notes:
--------------------
## Spot
Apache Spot is a platform for network telemetry built on an open data model
and Apache Hadoop.
Spot has been incubating since 2016-09-23.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. Increase community activity in mailing list and commits
2. Make the product more approachable for new contributors and users
3. Develop a roadmap that focuses on delivering one use case effectively
### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
Not at this time.
### How has the community developed since the last report?
Our new contributors have helped us increase our capacity to fix and
resolve issues. Our goal in the near future is to work with the
community on a roadmap that will allow more contributors to focus
and work on different levels of the project (i.e. data modeling and
schema design, use-cases, ingestion, ml, ui, dev ops, docs, etc).
### How has the project developed since the last report?
We have increased our conformance with ASF podling policies by removing
from the PPMC all who are not on the private mailing list. This has
been the longest-standing caution against us.
We have significantly revamped the project website with the object of
making it more approachable for new contributors. We have used whimsy
to ensure that all ASF requirements are complied with.
We have captured all of the sample data used by the project and are now
hosting them using ASF resources, instead of a third party AWS S3 link,
which was hosted by unknown persons.
We have cleared away a large development effort that was initiated by
a large company but not completed, and no contributors appear to be
ready to resume work on it. Discussions have been started to take
this feature in a direction fulfilling different use cases.

### When were the last committers or PPMC members elected?
2020-08-24 - We removed PPMC members who were not subscribed
to the private mailing list and who did not respond to
an email asking them to subscribe
### Have your mentors been helpful and responsive?
Are things falling through the cracks? If so, please list any
open issues that need to be addressed.
Our mentors have been helpful in onboarding new contributors,
and in getting us the Whimsy and Clutch reports and updating
the website so we more completely conform to ASF policy
requirements for podlings.
### Is the PPMC managing the podling's brand / trademarks?
Are 3rd parties respecting and correctly using the podlings
name and brand? If not what actions has the PPMC taken to
correct this? Has the VP, Brand approved the project name?
We have no knowledge of any issues with the brand or trademark.

## StreamPipes
StreamPipes is a self-service (Industrial) IoT toolbox to enable non-
technical users to connect, analyze and explore (Industrial) IoT data
streams.
StreamPipes has been incubating since 2019-11-11.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. Multiple Apache releases
2. Grow the developer community
3. Attract more users
### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
There are no issues right now.
### How has the community developed since the last report?
- We have two accepted talks for the ApacheCon @Home, one about flexible
Industrial IoT Management and one joint talk with PLC4X about data
analyzing with PLC4X and StreamPipes
- StreamPipes was elected for the AI-Champions Award (awarded by the
German state of Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany), which created more visibility
in the IIoT domain
- New users have joined the mailing list, and there is an increasing
amount of traffic on the dev mailing list
- We had several remote training sessions to show users how to use
StreamPipes
- We are updating the documentation for a better overview over all
features of StreamPipes and a better onboarding for new users
(https://s.apache.org/8rfq8 <https://s.apache.org/8rfq8>)
- We updated the README’s for the upcoming release for a quicker entry of
new developers
- Gathered more feedback from manufacturing companies how they use
StreamPipes for IIoT analytics
- Number of Twitter followers increased (last report: 128, currently: 148)
- Number of Github stars increased (last report: 144, currently: 163)
### How has the project developed since the last report?
- Refactor UI and remove all AngularJS components. This is a big
improvement for the code base, because new changes and features are now
much easier to accomplish. This especially improves experience for new
developers.
- Created release branch and perform final testing for our second release
(version 0.67.0), with around 70 bug fixes/improvements/new features
- New Features:
- Add Data Explorer to explore historic data
- Rework the installer and command line tool
- Remove AngularJS from UI
- Several new processors and adapters
