Attachment Z: Report from the Apache Gora Project  [Lewis John McGibbney]

## Description:
 - Apache Gora provides an in-memory data model and persistence for big
data.

## Issues:
 - There are no issues requiring board attention at this time.

## Activity:
 - Gora has recently seen some encouraging activity for new community
members
   in the form of bug fixes. We have one blocking issue prior to our 0.7
release.
   This has been pending for quite some time.

## Health report:
 - Gora would benefit from the 0.7 release as we have a numbef of new
datastores
   which, if released, could help the community spirit. We are still
working on
   the 0.7 blocker, however once done we can VOTE.
