June 2010 Board Report
Status
We really need someone to step up and do some site/build work. It has been a hindrance for some time.
Community changes
No new PMC members were voted in since the last board report.
Antonio Petrelli (apetrelli) was voted in as a Velocity committer on June 2nd.
Velocity Engine project
Released versions 1.6.4 (should be last in 1.6 branch) and 1.7-beta1. Actual development is slow/quiet; one active committer and one active-voted-in-but-no-karma-yet-committer. Getting good bug reports and active user list. 2.0 development has taken a back seat to 1.6/1.7 but is not forgotten.
Velocity Tools project
Released version 2.0 finally!! Current development of Tools is slow/quiet; 1.5 active committers and one active-voted-in-but-no-karma-yet-committer. Getting good bug reports and light user list activity. Sandbox directory has been requested by contributor to revamp Maven build; the PMC agreed, but this must be done by the chair who has not done it.
