[Draft] Apache Jena - 2023-01
## Description:
The mission of Jena is the creation and maintenance of software
related to Java framework for building Semantic Web applications
## Issues:
There are no issues requiring board attention.
## Membership Data:
Apache Jena was founded 2012-04-18 (11 years ago)
There are currently 18 committers and 13 PMC members in this project.
The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 9:7.
Community changes, past quarter:
- No new PMC members. Last addition was Aaron Coburn on 2019-01-22.
- No new committers. Last addition was Greg Albiston on 2019-07-08.
## Project Activity:
Jena released 4.7.0. The release included feature contributions from 6
people who are not PMC members or project committers. The web site has
also seen pull-requests from external contributors.
This was a significant release with two major features.
LATERAL is a addition to the SPARQL query language being developed by
the semantic web community.
RDF Patch is a file format for recording changes to RDF data and it can
be used recording changes, incremental backup and also as part of high
availability replication of Jena Fuseki triplestore instances.
## Community Health:
The significant change in email on dev@ is in part due to the release
because the project needed to address a random test instability.
Otherwise, the quarter has been the usual situation of more user
requests than can be addressed within the resources of the project.
