## Milagro

Milagro is core security infrastructure and crypto libraries for
decentralized networks and distributed systems.

Milagro has been incubating since 2015-12-21.

### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

  1. Continue to build relevant and useful crypto libraries and applications
  for decentralized networks in order to grow the ecosystem of users and
  contributors to the project.
  2.Continue to improve compliance with the Apache Way. In particular to
  update the Milagro website and other project sites (e.g. Whimsy) in
  accordance with Apache policies.   
  3. Further releases to increase the scope of the Milagro project, extend
  the capability of existing releases and to demonstrate improved
  compliance with the Apache Way.

### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?

  Administrative tasks are still outstanding due to members' other 
  commitments
  and the pandemic.  These include In particular, a PPMC meeting to discuss
  the project roadmap needs to be arranged, old releases need to be 
  deleted,
  confirmation that the project's Whimsy, Clutch, SVN, Confluence & 
  Committers
  pages are all current, and the code signing keys needs countersigning.
  Investigations into a redirect on Milagro's home page and an XSS
  vulnerability on the Decentralized Trust Authority's Swagger page are 
  ongoing.

### How has the community developed since the last report?
We have presented Liminal to several companies, got great feedback, and they are now evaluating Liminal for their use cases.
We have presented in ApacheCon Asia and ApacheCon. 

### How has the project developed since the last report?
We have released v 0.0.3 - a major milestone to Liminal, containing out-of-the-box functionality to run an ML pipeline locally and in AWS, using Airflow, Kubernetes & Spark
  No change.

### How has the project developed since the last report?

  Works is still progressing preparing the MPC library for its first 
  official
  Apache release.  Some issue regarding static code analysis were 
  encountered
  but these have now been resolved.  A request to release the Rust version 
  of
  the core crypto library has been received from within the Milagro 
  community.

## NuttX

NuttX is a mature, real-time embedded operating system (RTOS).

NuttX has been incubating since 2019-12-09.

### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

  1. Clear any potential infringing use of the NuttX trademark
  2. Achieve a non-WIP Disclaimer release under Apache
  3. Continue to grow the community with people from different background

### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?

  The project has begun to discuss graduation to TLP and hopes to start
  this  process in the near future. We would appreciate any helpful
  feedback that  will assist us in taking this important step forward.

### How has the community developed since the last report?

  * Virtually all communications have moved from old venues to  
    dev@nuttx.apache.org. The dev list contains 245 subscribers, an  
    increase of 7% since our previous report, and is the home of most  
    development discussions and user questions.  
  * GitHub's PRs and Issues also have their own discussions.  
  * We are seeing new contributors to the project through GitHub.  
  * No non-PPMC committers have been added since the last report.  
  * One new PPMC member has been added since the last report: Sara  
    Monteiro joined the PPMC in May.  
  * No non-PPMC committers have been added since the last report.  

### How has the project developed since the last report?

  * NuttX developers and contributors organized the annual NuttX  
    Workshop 2021. Due to continuing concerns around COVID, this  
    year's workshop was held online. The event took place on 21-22  
    August 2021 and can be seen online at  
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxhrnO4qz0w. More information  
    about this and other NuttX events can be found at  
    https://nuttx.events.  
  * We continue to make significant steps toward license clearing,  
    needed for graduation. This month, we have received four new SGAs  
    and five new ICLAs. Efforts continue to clear files and change  
    their license to the Apache 2.0 License through the large effort  
    of our volunteers. Since joining the Incubator, tens of thousands  
    of files have been changed to the Apache 2.0 License with the  
    permission of more than 70 individuals and 20 organizations who  
    signed ICLAs, CCLAs, and SGAs to assist us in getting closer to  
    graduation. We are grateful to everyone for their invaluable  
    support through this important process.  
  * NuttX developers and contributors organized an event called NuttX  
    Monthly Meetup, the first event of its kind, which took place at  
    https://meet.jit.si/NuttXMeetup, to discuss topics such as  
    continuing efforts toward license clearing and the next NuttX  
    release. Following the event, a lengthy discussion took place at  
    the NuttX mailing list where concerns were expressed about the  
    meeting's content and synchronous venue. Currently it is unclear  
    whether similar events will be organized in the future. If they  
    will, it seems likely that the focus will be to promote NuttX and  
    answer users questions.  
  * The community has begun discussing the next release, NuttX-10.2,  
    and a developer has volunteered to serve as Release Manager for  
    this release.  
  * Many technical improvements, bug fixes, and new architectures  
    have been collaborated and work continues with several pull  
    requests merged per day.  
  * We have listened to the valuable feedback received during our  
    previous releases and continue to improve our documentation. This  
    can be found at https://nuttx.apache.org/docs/latest/.
