What the board has decided about this committee or office, and the reports it filed, most recent first. Generated from the published minutes.
These categorised views are best effort. They are read from the published minutes by a program, and what it can attribute to a committee depends on how each resolution happens to be worded — so a page may be incomplete, and nothing here overrides the minutes themselves. The raw minutes are the source of truth.
Please note. The board approves the minutes of a meeting at the meeting after it, and they are published then - so the most recent meeting is not usually here. ASF Members can read the draft in the board's own repository until it is.

OzHera is an application observation platform (APM) in the era of cloud native, with the application as its core, integrating capabilities such as metric monitoring, trace tracking, logging, and alerting OzHera has been incubating since 2024-07-11. ### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating: 1. Complete the next Apache release and improve the release process. 2. Grow the contributor base and elect more committers/PPMC members. 3. Move more design, release, and community discussions to the public dev mailing list. ### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of? The project is preparing the next Apache release in early June. The release has not been completed yet. The community is reviewing the remaining release blockers and will work with mentors to complete the release process. ### How has the community developed since the last report? The community continued development and code review on GitHub. Several contributors participated in recent pull requests, including work on log stream processing, Agent interfaces, permission checks, configuration delivery, and stability improvements. One new committer was elected in April 2026. The project will continue to encourage more technical discussions, release planning, and community decisions to happen on the public dev mailing list. ### How has the project developed since the last report? The project continued to improve observability features and stability. Recent development work includes: 1. Improved log stream processing, including OpenCLAW log path parsing, null pointer checks, trace application log retrieval, and handling of truncated log content. 2. Added and improved Agent-related interfaces, including new interfaces that the Agent can call and better request validation for valid JSON payloads. 3. Improved permission and configuration support, including space/store permission checks, configuration parameter support, and a sending frequency limit function. 4. Optimized Agent channel lookup by prioritizing IP-based lookup. 5. Improved log processing and configuration delivery logic. 6. Fixed smaller issues such as PromQL naming corrections, Redis import path fixes, and other stability improvements. The last release was v2.2.5-incubating on 2025-03-26. The community is preparing the next Apache release in early June. The release has not been completed yet.dev mailing list ### How would you assess the podling's maturity?
