Project health is largely the same as in previous update. We are making a very large architectural design change (support consortium governing), and there are many (10+) participants in the weekly meeting and actively discuss new issues.

There are no major issues at this time. But definitely it would be nice to have more diversity.

Overall Activity in the Past Quarter

  • Support kubernetes agent for fabric 1.1/1.2 network deployment.
  • Improved user experience for user dashboard.
