NLPCraft

A Java API for NLU applications

NLPCraft has been incubating since 2020-02-13.

Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

Comunity growth.
Releasing a stable 1.0 version.

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

None.

How has the community developed since the last report?

Community development has seemingly stalled in the last 4-5 months. The main reason is probably due to core committers engaged in a deep refactoring of the project.

How has the project developed since the last report?

The project is undergoing a significant re-architecture based on the initial user feedback. This work is focused primarily on simplification and narrowing the scope of the project.

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:

Clear any potential infringing use of the NuttX trademark
Achieve a non-WIP Disclaimer release under Apache
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?

During our previous month report (April 2022), we submitted our first
non-WIP-DISCLAIMER release candidate to the IPMC for a vote. One of our
mentors identified several additional items that should be listed in
LICENSE. This is currently being addressed and we hope to submit a new
release candidate for IPMC vote soon. If the vote passes, we will make
our first non-WIP-DISCLAIMER release since joining the ASF Incubator
and the project hopes to apply for graduation to TLP status shortly
after that. Throughout this process, we would appreciate any and all
helpful feedback that will assist us in reaching this important
milestone and would like to express our sincere gratitude for all the
help we've received so far.

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 253 subscribers
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.
* We have 5 mentors, 17 PPMC members, and 26 non-PPMC committers.

How has the project developed since the last report?

The WIP-DISCLAIMER has been removed from the nuttx and apps
repositories pending NuttX-10.3, which we expect will be our
first non-disclaimer release.
NuttX-10.2 was released on November 23, 2021.
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/.

Wayang is a cross-platform data processing system that aims at decoupling the business logic of data analytics applications from concrete data processing platforms, such as Apache Flink or Apache Spark.
