[REPORT] ORC - January 2024

## Description:
The mission of ORC is the creation and maintenance of software related
to the smallest, fastest columnar storage for Hadoop workloads.

## Issues:
There are no issues requiring board attention.

## Membership Data:
Apache ORC was founded 2015-04-21 (9 years ago)
There are currently 46 committers and 14 PMC members in this project.
The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 3:1.

    - No new PMC members. Last addition was Pavan Lanka on 2023-03-30.
    - No new committers. Last addition was Xin Zhang on 2023-02-06.

We are continuing to encourage community engagement, and we have voted on and
invited a new committer candidate.

## Project Activity:
We started the Apache ORC Format repository which includes ORC
specifications and a ProtocolBuffer file. We released version 1.0.0
and successfully migrated the ORC repository.

    - https://github.com/apache/orc-format
    - ORC-1572: Use ORC Format 1.0.0

According to our release cadence, we released three maintenance releases
in this quarter and helped other Apache communities use them.

    - 1.9.2 was released on 2023-11-10.
    - 1.8.6 was released on 2023-11-10.
    - 1.7.10 was released on 2023-11-10.

In addition, we are preparing the following milestones in 2024.

    - 2.0.0 (January)
    - 1.9.3 (March)
    - 1.8.7 (April)
    - 1.7.11 (September)

## Community Health:
In this quarter, the traffic of both dev and issues mailing lists have increased
by 33% and 6% respectively.
And the number of code contributors has increased 33%, which is a good sign for
community growth.

Thank you, William.

I'll volunteer for the release manager for Apache ORC 2.0.0 and do the
follow-up.
