[REPORT] June 2016

[Fabian Christ <fc...@apache.org>]

Hi Stanbolers,

I have submitted the following June 2016 report to the board.

Status report for the Apache Stanbol Project - June, 2016

Apache Stanbol provides a set of reusable components for semantic content
management.

The project is doing fine on a low level. The major blocker is still the
stocked release process. People do not find the time to cut new releases
or to hand over the process to other PMC members.

The project is focused on easing the use of Stanbol and use resources like
Docker images. The project also received contributions in terms of improved
documentation which will be included in the near futur. In combination with
an improved release process Stanbol should become more easy to use to end
users.

The project voted for two new PMC members. The board has been notified but
we need to wait for the 72 hours period to end until we invite them
officially.

The vote for new PMC members is a first step to hand over the planned
improvements and the release process to a new generation of people.

Subscribers on the dev list: 231
