humans.
Annotator has been incubating since 2016-08-30.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. Incubation issues identified by Whimsy still need addressing.
2. Project activity is very low.
3. Release activity is very low.
### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
The project has struggled to make a third release. The last attempt ran into issues with
voting and testing. Since then, the project has added new member to the PPMC, which may
help with getting releases moving.

The community continues to have low, but not zero, activity on its mailing list and its
issue tracker, with some new folks expressing interest in getting involved in passing.
### How has the project developed since the last report?
Not much has happened since the last report, owing partially to the project's low level
of activity and to holiday season.

Comments: The first release was a major achievement. I have asked them
to make another release, with a different release manager, to prove
that the process is reproducible, and to remove release exceptions
in the WIP-DISCLAIMER. Also, there are several components, and not
all have so far had a release.) After that release, SDAP is ready
to graduate.
