+ --------------------
+ Toree
+ 
+ Toree provides applications with a mechanism to interactively and remotely
+ access Apache Spark. It enables interactive workloads between applications
+ and a Spark cluster. As a Jupyter Notebook extension, it provides the user
+ with a preconfigured environment for interacting with Spark using Scala,
+ Python, R or SQL.
+ 
+ Toree has been incubating since 2015-12-02.
+ 
+ Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
+ 
+   1. Resolve LGPL dependency: This is in progress, and hopefully we will
+      have the dependency license changed to a license that is compatible
+      with AL2.
+   2. Make a release: nearing completion
+   3. Grow a diverse community: We should put some emphasis on growing the
+      community and making it diverse (the rule is at least three independent
+      contributors)
+ 
+ Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
+ aware of?
+ 
+   TOREE-262 - Progress on removal of LGPL dependency
+ 
+ How has the community developed since the last report?
+ 
+   1. Active communication in mailing list and gitter with early adopters
+   2. Still working on transitioning users from Spark Kernel project into
+      Toree.
+   3. More external contributions being made
+ 
+ How has the project developed since the last report?
+ 
+   1. Contrinue working with JeroMQ community to further their transition into
+      MPL v2 and away from LGPL. 3 committers to go.
+   2. Substantial effort in our build system to make Apache compliant releases.
+   3. Addressing issues opened by community
+ 
+ Date of last release:
+ 
+   None since incubation.
+ 
+ When were the last committers or PMC members elected?
+ 
+   No new additions since incubation
