[GitHub] [incubator-annotator-website] BigBlueHat opened a new issue #25: Board Report: May 2021 (former April 2021)

URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-annotator-website/issues/25

--------------------
## Annotator

Annotator provides annotation enabling code for browsers, servers, and
humans.

Annotator has been incubating since 2016-08-30.

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

1. Add active contributors
2. Stabilize a release cadence
3. Continue to demonstrate good governance

### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
Community building has been very slow and it has been a long time since the project added new committers or PPMC members. After a period of relative inactivity and a conversion of the codebase to TypeScript, the project is long overdue for a second release. The IPMC should expect to see the project vote on a second release before the next board report to demonstrate forward momentum.

### How has the community developed since the last report?
There have been some one-off contributions to project documentation and questions raised by people evaluating the project for use, but there have not been sustained contributions or involvement from new folks yet.

### How has the project developed since the last report?
The project is now making continuous development packages to make it easier for developers to test upcoming releases. There is now tooling in place for generating API documentation, with plans to integrate the generated documentation into the website. The existing interfaces have all been documented. These efforts are all focused around the current goal of building community by making it easier for developers to become familiar with the project.

There are no branding issues that the PPM is aware of.
