e.g., the UDF (User Define Function), Cluster module, Integration with
Apache Zeppelin.

## Community Health:

According to Github's statistics, the number of IoTDB's code contributors
reaches to 100!

The number of discussions on the dev@ mailing list, the number of PRs
decreases, the Chinese New Year holiday is one of the reasons.

However, we can see the number of emails in the review@ mailing list
increases, it is good because it indicates more discussions happen.

The number of opened issues also increases, which indicates more and
more user requirements are received.

Best,
