## Description:
Apache UIMA's mission: the creation and maintenance of open-source software
related to the analysis of unstructured data, guided by the UIMA Oasis
Standard. The software provides frameworks, tools and annotators,
facilitating the analysis of unstructured content such as text, audio and
video.

## Issues:
No Board level issues at this time.

## Membership Data:
Apache UIMA was founded 2010-03-17 (12 years ago)
There are currently 25 committers and 17 PMC members in this project.
The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 7:5.

Community changes, past quarter:
- No new PMC members. Last addition was Viorel Morari on 2019-11-19.
- No new committers. Last addition was Viorel Morari on 2018-09-20.

## Project Activity:
No releases in this reporting period. A uimaFIT 2.6.0 RC1 was already up 
for voting but cancelled due to a bug having been discovered. Releases of
uimaFIT 2.6.0 and UIMA Java SDK 3.2.1 expected for the next reporting period.
Inclusion of the new JSON format hinted at in the last report scheduled
for UIMA Java SDK 3.3.0.

## Community Health:
The community continues to be moderately active. Activity is shifting from
the users mailing list more towards GitHub PRs and StackOverflow though.
