ASF Board Draft Report - October 2017

[Stephen Mallette <sp...@gmail.com>]

Here is the draft of the July 2017 board report - please let me know if
there is anything else to add.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

## Description:
Apache TinkerPop is a graph computing framework for both graph databases
(OLTP) and graph analytic systems (OLAP).

## Activity:
TinkerPop released versions 3.1.8, 3.2.6, and 3.3.0, where 3.3.0 represented
a major new release with a number of new features. As part of this release
cycle, we also offered a release candidate for a .NET Gremlin Language
Variant[2], which should further expose TinkerPop beyond the Java
ecosystem.
Release 3.1.8 will be the last release on the 3.1.x line, leaving the
community to focus efforts on maintaining 3.2.x and 3.3.x areas of
development.

In the wider TinkerPop community, it was announced that Apache S2Graph[1]
implemented support for TinkerPop as part of their recent release. The
community was also pleased to see that Apache TinkerPop had won a 2017
Bossie Award in the "Best Databases and Analytics Tools" category[3] which
covered InfoWorld's picks for the "best open source software for
large-scale
search, SQL, NoSQL, and streaming analytics".

## Issues:
There are no issues requiring board attention at this time.

## Releases:
- 3.1.8 (August 20, 2017)
- 3.2.6 (August 20, 2017)
- 3.3.0 (August 20, 2017)

## PMC/Committer:

- Last PMC addition was Robert Dale - April 2017
- Last committer addition was Florian Hockmann/Jorge Bay Gondra - July 2017
