+<h1>Core Team Report: June 2019 - December 2021<i class="fas fa-comments"></i></h1>
+
+<p>
+  This is a high level report of the activities of the
+  <a href="/developer/core">PostgreSQL Core Team</a> during the period of June
+  2019 to December 2021. While we aim for full transparency, some activities
+  may be kept confidential for privacy and other reasons.
+</p>
+
+<ul>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Creation of a Contributors Committee</strong></p>
+    <p>
+      The Contributors Committee was set up to create guidelines for how to
+      measure contributions to the PostgreSQL Project. Periodically, this
+      committee evaluates contributor status in the community and recognizes new
+      contributors and major contributors to the project.
+    </p>
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Recognized PostgreSQL User Group (PUG) Guidelines</strong></p>
+    <p>
+      The <a href="/about/policies/user-groups/">Recognized PostgreSQL User Group (PUG) guidelines</a>
+      were established to provide a framework for creating a consistent local
+      user group experience for PostgreSQL meetups. These guidelines were also
+      incorporated into the revised
+      <a href="/about/policies/trademarks/">PostgreSQL Trademark Policy</a>.
+    </p>
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Revised Trademark Policy</strong></p>
+    <p>
+      The Core Team has previously delegated management of the PostgreSQL
+      trademarks to the <a href="https://www.postgres.ca/">PostgreSQL Community Association of Canada</a>
+      (PGCAC). Through the advice of legal counsel, the PostgreSQL Core Team
+      accepted revisions to the <a href="/about/policies/trademarks/">PostgreSQL Trademark Policy</a>.
+      The Core Team worked with PGCAC to ensure the trademark policy would
+      continue to be fair and open while providing additional protections to the
+      PostgreSQL trademarks.
+    </p>
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Planet PostgreSQL Policy Revisions</strong></p>
+    <p>
+      <a href="https://planet.postgresql.org">Planet PostgreSQL</a> provides a
+      means for people to syndicate blogs on topics around PostgreSQL. The
+      Planet PostgreSQL moderation team proposed
+      <a href="/about/policies/planet-postgresql/">revisions to the policy</a> to
+      allow for blogs to contain video content under certain conditions. After
+      some discussion, the Core Team chose to accept the policy revisions.
+    </p>
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Revisions to Community Conference Guidelines</strong></p>
+    <p>
+      The <a href="/about/policies/conferences/">Community Conference guidelines</a>
+      provide a framework for creating a consistent experience across PostgreSQL
+      conferences. After several years of events following the initial
+      guidelines, the Core Team incorporated feedback from the events and,
+      working with several conference organizers, amended the guidelines.
+      Changes include guidelines around the organizing committee and specific
+      requirements around the use of a code of conduct.
+    </p>
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Trademark Dispute</strong></p>
+    <p>
+      The PostgreSQL Core Team, working with the
+      <a href="https://www.postgres.ca/">PostgreSQL Community Association of Canada</a>
+      and <a href="https://www.postgresql.eu/">PostgreSQL Europe</a>, have been
+      engaged in a trademark dispute with a 3rd party organization. The Core
+      Team <a href="/about/news/trademark-actions-against-the-postgresql-community-2302/">published a summary of the dispute</a>.
+      This matter is still ongoing at the time of this report.
+    </p>
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Code of Conduct and Code of Conduct Committee</strong></p>
+    <p>
+      The PostgreSQL Core Team accepted several changes to the
+      <a href="/about/policies/coc/">Code of Conduct</a>, particularly around
+      committee selection and transition.
+    </p>
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>New Core Team Members</strong></p>
+    <p>
+      The <a href="/developer/core">PostgreSQL Core Team</a> welcomed Andres
+      Freund and Jonathan Katz to the Core Team.
+    </p>
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Revisions to Committers</strong></p>
+    <p>
+      Following the guidance of existing <a href="https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Committers">PostgreSQL Committers</a>,
+      the PostgreSQL Core Team welcomed several new committers to the Project,
+      including:
+    </p>
+    <ul>
+      <li>Daniel Gustafsson</li>
+      <li>John Naylor</li>
+    </ul>
+  </li>
+  <p>
+    Due to inactivity within the project, the Core Team also revoked the commit
+    bits from several previous committers.
+  </p>
+</ul>
