Request for info about the status of the project

[Giorgio Pea <an...@gmail.com>]

Hi guys!
Can I ask you what are the plans for the development and maintenance of
echarts given that the latest release was on march and the number of issues
for the project on GitHub is ridiculous?
Thank you! Have a nice day!
Giorgio

I'm afraid I cannot answer the question about how much time we plan to
dedicate to the project. But you may have some clue if you look into the
response time and fix time in GitHub issues [1].
Most of us contribute in our spare time. We would like to help, but
compared to a large number of users, which is over 38k as shown on GitHub
used-by component, we do have a limited number of contributors. And that
explains much about that issue number on GitHub.

Let's say it in this way. For example, if you have problems like how to use
ECharts to do something, this is most likely to get answered
(StackOverflow, GitHub issues and etc.). But if you have a specific new
feature to request, or very urgent bugs to report, based on our current
situation, you may get disappointed about the waiting time if you cannot
debug by yourself and the only thing you wish to do is to get it fixed by
someone else.

Hope that helps. :)

Rather than a precise date, I would like to know how do you organize the
development of echarts, how much time you plan to dedicate to it, if the
project in 5 years will still see strong maintanance and development. This
because my company has more or less committed to use echarts, but by
judging from GitHub and the issues my company is very dubious about the
decision.

Hi Giorgio,

We are going to start testing next week. But the release date is hard to
tell. It depends on many factors.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
