+ --------------------
+ 
+ Metron
+ 
+ Metron integrates a variety of open source big data technologies in order to
+ offer a centralized tool for security monitoring and analysis. Metron
+ provides capabilities for log aggregation, full packet capture indexing,
+ storage, advanced behavioral analytics and data enrichment, while applying
+ the most current threat-intelligence information to security telemetry
+ within a single platform.
+ 
+ Metron has been incubating since 2015-12-06.
+ 
+ Three most important issues to address in the move towards
+ Graduation.
+ 
+   - Building a diverse community of developers for Metron
+   - Getting security practitioners to provide feedback on requirements
+   - Make an Apache release
+ 
+ Any issues that the Incubator PMC or ASF Board might wish/need to
+ be aware of
+ 
+   - We are currently trying to produce our second Apache release of Metron
+ 
+ * How has the community developed since the last report
+ 
+   - In the process of adding one additional committer, Michael Miklavcic 
+   - We accepted numerous contributions from non-committers interested
+     in Metron, including additional parsers and sample telemetries 
+   - We host a weekly UI working session and were able to source requirements for a new UI prototype
+    - We hosted a Metron meetup, which received a lot of interest from the community
+   - We saw an uptick in interest from the community on the dev boards which
+     corresponds to people trying the product prior to an official release,
+     which is a good sign.
+    - We are receiving community JIRAs for bug reports and security issues 
+ 
+ * How has the project developed since the last report
+ 
+   - We closed over 100 Jiras and are in the latest stages of releasing
+     our second Apache release.
+   - We added additional installation automation and documentation
+   - We added additional features around parsing and a rules engine through a DSL called Stellar
+   - We are adding infrastructure called "Model as a Service" to uptake ML models 
+ 
+ Date of last release:
+ 
+   April 2016
+ 
+ When were the last committers or PMC members elected?
+ 
+   David Lyle on 22 March 2016
