 1. What work did the SIG do this year that should be highlighted?
 
-   -
+   - Significant progress on KEP-1645, the [MCS API](https://sigs.k8s.io/mcs-api) now with conformance tests
-   -
+   - Developed the About API for ClusterSets
-   -
 
 2. What initiatives are you working on that aren't being tracked in KEPs?
 
-   -
+   - SIG-MC is building a website ([multicluster.sigs.k8s.io](https://multicluster.sigs.k8s.io/)) to track and communicate multicluster related initiatives, patterns, and best practices. ([contribute](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/sig-multicluster-site))
-   -
+   - We are working with the Gateway API project to formalize interaction with multi-cluster services
-   -
+   - The SIG is exploring cross-cluster workload management - what might it take to support multicluster controllers? and the [work API](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/work-api)
-

 3. KEP work in 2022 (v1.24, v1.25, v1.26):
   - alpha:
     - [2149 - ClusterID for ClusterSet Identification](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/tree/master/keps/sig-multicluster/2149-clusterid) - v1.24

 ## Project health
 
 1. What areas and/or subprojects does your group need the most help with?
    Any areas with 2 or fewer OWNERs? (link to more details)
 
-   -
+   - There has been continued and repeated interest in multicluster controller development, but we need more people to come and share specific use cases, previous attempts at implementations, and/or concerns before we can hope to propose any generally useful solutions.
-   -
+   - See this [doc](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VMEv8ivK0ovLN8PTv9fGsTqUAErWkv6sE98bdju13oM/edit#heading=h.u7jfy9wqpd2b) for areas the SIG has been exploring. Help trying things out, refining use cases, and prototyping would be greatly appreciated.
-   -
 
 2. What metrics/community health stats does your group care about and/or measure?
 
-   -
+   - We tend to focus most on meetup attendees and presenters, and contributors.
-   -
+     - In H2 2022 we averaged 15 attendees/week, now up to ~20 in 2023-03
-   -
+     - 2-3 presenters each week in 2023, up from ~1 in H2 2022
+   - We have regular discussion and repo contributions from 5-6 companies.
 
 3. Does your [CONTRIBUTING.md] help **new** contributors engage with your group specifically by pointing
    to activities or programs that provide useful context or allow easy participation?
 
-   -
+   - Yes
 
 4. If your group has special training, requirements for reviewers/approvers, or processes beyond the general [contributor guide],
    does your [CONTRIBUTING.md] document those to help **existing** contributors grow throughout the [contributor ladder]?
 
-   -
+   - N/A
 
 5. Does the group have contributors from multiple companies/affiliations?
 
-   -
+   - Yes - contributions from 5-6 companies. Most bi-weekly SIG meetings have contributors from 4+ companies.
 
 6. Are there ways end users/companies can contribute that they currently are not?
    If one of those ways is more full time support, what would they work on and why?
