To this end, I sometimes find it difficult to know what is expected by the TSC in terms of tasks or reports that project maintainers should be delivering. This is likely just because I have never filled this role before (prior to the reboot these tasks were performed by a maintainer who is no longer able to contribute), but I was unaware of this page, as an example. Are there other TSC reporting requirements of the project lead other than these reports?

Activity over the past quarter has been light, although 5 PRs have been merged recentlystarted off light. However, in late August/early-september, activity picked-up (5 PRs were merged). From mid Sept to the end of the month, participation and activity has been very robust, with many tasks completed towards providing Interledger STREAM support in the Quilt library (this will allow Quilt clients to interact with Interledger Connectors for the first time!).

Current Plans

We are currently planning to release v1.0 of Quilt by Sept 30th, 2019. This will include core libraries to support ILP sender & receiver functionality, including support for the STREAM protocol, which will be a large enabler for applications built on top of Quilt libraries. That said, today's Quilt is currently limited to core-libraries underpinning ILP (IL-DCP, BTP, Core packets, OER serialization, etc). Over the coming month we will be discussing potential additional contributions to the project, including an ILP Sender, ILP Receiver, and possibly an ILP Connector/Router as well.

Maintainer Diversity

No Two new maintainers have been add in Q2. We expect two new maintainers to join the team in the coming weeksadded in Q3: (https://github.com/nhartner) and (https://github.com/theotherian). Including myself, there are now three maintainers. While our technical diversity is strong, we are all funded by the same company, so from this perspective diversity is low.

Contributor Diversity

Currently contributions are coming from developers at Ripple/Xpring and the University of Washington (e.g., https://github.com/sudheesh001), with some less regular contributions coming from developers at Coil. 

Additional Information

I would like to breathe new life into the Quilt project, though I realize this is a bit late in coming. Hopefully we can get things going again with Quilt, including regular Quilt calls, regular updates to the TSC, and more developer involvement in the projectNot at this time.
