## Description:
VCL is a modular cloud computing platform which dynamically provisions and
brokers remote access to compute resources including virtual machines,
bare-metal computers, and resources in other cloud platforms. A self-service
web portal is used to request resources and for administration. VCL became a
TLP on June 20, 2012.

## Issues:
- There are no issues requiring board attention at this time.

## Activity:
- The community had a fairly lengthy and productive discussion regarding the
health of the project. [1][2] Some good ideas were expressed for how to
maintain and improve the health. It is now up to us to actually implement
these ideas. We will try to work on this over the upcoming months.
- Work is underway to clear out the few remaining open Jira issues for the
next release, VCL 2.5. This is mostly janitorial work. No significant code
needs to be worked on. We hope to begin the release process this month.

## Health report:
- Mailing list traffic is up a bit since the last report. I expect dev
traffic to increase as we release a new version and user traffic to
increase afterwards.
- It has now been over a year since our last release. We will be releasing a
new version soon.
