Apache Geronimo Board Report
The Apache Geronimo Project has been mostly focusing on achieving Java EE 5.0 functionality for its 2.0 release. We have been refining our release procedures and as a result have been fairly consistent at releasing monthly Milestones to make our work in progress available to users.
Version 1.2 is nearing its readiness to release but has been delayed due to external dependencies that have not been fulfilled.
Collaboration with several other projects in Apache is going on which includes Axis 2, OpenJPA, OpenEJB, CXF and Yoko.

Policy Changes
- TCK Access
The PMC approved a policy allowing read access to our TCK framework for any Apache committer that has signed the NDA for access to the Sun TCK. There is a 72-hour waiting period for non-Geronimo committers so the PMC membership can comment. Non-committers are granted read-only access (and can earn karma) while Geronimo committers are granted Read / Write access.
