Sentry
 
 Sentry is a highly modular system for providing fine grained role based
 authorization to both data and metadata stored on an Apache Hadoop cluster.
 
 Sentry has been incubating since 2013-08-08.
 
 Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
 
   1. Build community and add new committers
   2. Continue to release at regular intervals
 
 Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
 aware of?
 
   None
 
 How has the community developed since the last report?
 
   Community development continues. Sentry was presented to various user
   groups (Hive User Group, New York Hadoop User Group) with great interest.
   Sentry community hosted its first meetup in NYC. Nearly 20 people attended
   the meetup.  There was great interest and lively discussions. 
 
 How has the project developed since the last report?
 
   A number of new JIRAs have been filed and are being actively worked on. 
   Support for Solr index level authorization is under way.
