## Project Activity:

  • The project added a Patch Release Process. 
  • The project released 1.8.2 and 1.7.2 on 28-November-2022, for a relatively minor issue and partly to further test the patch release process. 
  • We released 1.8.1 and 1.7.1 as patch releases on 25-November-2022 - covering the CVE below  - which was a first test of our patch release process. 
  • On August 22nd, the project released Fineract 1.8.0.  as covered in our last Board report. There is active development, and a new release (1.9) is anticipated in Q1 2023. Most of the contributions are coming in from commercial motivated interests.  
  • The project got a critical security vulnerability report. It was able to deliver a patch following the Apache process and issue the CVE-2022-44635 for the supported versions, and the community also got involved in creating patches for earlier versions. 
  • In November we conducted a Survey of the community.  We had 22 responses, which was probably not a sufficiently diverse sample, but nonetheless, we found useful insights.  The project continues to enjoy a generally positive impression, mostly unchanged from surveys in 2019 and 2021.  There are a larger number of people responding who found the project on the internet versus the connection to Mifos.org.  The domains covered by the production users covered digital wallets (70%), online lending (64%), payment accounts (60%),  traditional banking accounts (58%).  --> Survey Results 2022 November. 

Roadmap and Tickets:  

  • In October we conducted an effort to close older issues. The decision was made by vote to close all issues that were older than 26 months and had no activity on them.  We ended up closing over 700 about 300 tickets but we still have a lot of stale issues.  2022-October-21: Jira Clean Up.  This remains an area of constructive dialog with some arguing to keep stale tickets visible.  
  • We began work on additional roadmap thinking in 2022, but have not completed this effort:  Roadmap Q4 2022 (PROPOSED) 
  • A more explicit Trademark policy was adopted: Fineract Trademarks Usage and Policy.   We communicated out the trademark policy on dev.
