## 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:
- Upon a review of our documentation, we realized that it needed notable improvement and thought it best to put a fair amount of work into it before getting our next release out. Work is in progress to improve it.

- There are a few coding issues that still need to be completed for the next release. We plan to focus on the documentation first, and finish up the coding work afterwards.


## Health report:
- Overall, the health of the project is fair.  Activity and interest seem to be fairly flat.  We're working on aspects such as improving documentation to attempt to make it easier for people to adopt the Apache VCL software and also to contribute to the project.
