Apache Board Report, Feb 10

[Dmitry Pavlov]

Hi Igniters,

Feb 10 is the due date for submitting the next board report. I would like
to submit it a bit earlier, by the end of the day on Feb 9.

Here is the first version of the report (at the end of the email). Should
we add here something important?

What do you think if it worths mentioning/requires board attention:
schema first discussions? IEP-61? Extensions release? Anything related to
the 3.0 development approach?

Sincerely,
Dmitriy Pavlov

Hello!

In Nov 2020 we have decided that Ignite is a "distributed database":
http://apache-ignite-developers.2346864.n4.nabble.com/VOTE-Define-Apache-Ignite-as-a-Distributed-Database-td50269.html

I think it is worth mentioning, and also that Description section needs
updating.

Hi Ilya,

that's a good point. This decision was mentioned in the previous board
report, it was in Nov 2020.

How description can be changed?

Sincerely,
Dmitriy Pavlov

Ok, I've updated the mission statement.

I guess this section is skipped by approvers since it is auto-generated. It
should be there for the case when a reader is not familiar with Ignite.

Btw, if anyone knows where reporter.a.o takes that data and how to
update it, please let me know.
