Great to hear that FREEMARKER-35 is still being worked on.
I look forward to trying out LocalDate etc in Freemarker.
With kind regards,

Sorry, I have almost missed the deadline, had no time realistically
for comments.
I hope that during December I will find substantial time and can push
things forward, especially FREEMARKER-35 that should have been finished
looong ago. Or figure out how to create a smaller release, because it's
really time to do one.

## Description:
Apache FreeMarker is a template engine, i.e. a generic tool to generate text
output based on templates. Apache FreeMarker is implemented in Java as a class
library for programmers.
FreeMarker 2 (the current stable line) produces releases since 2002.
The FreeMarker project has joined the ASF in 2015, and graduated from the
Incubator in early 2018.
## Issues:
There are no issues requiring board attention at this time.
## Activity:
Activity was low in recent months.
## Health report:
Development activity was low in recent months, reaching the next release goes
slowly.
User questions (mostly on StackOverflow) and new Jira issues are being answered
promptly.
The short term goal is to polish native java.time support (FREEMARKER-35), and
release it
with 2.3.32. The long term goal is continuing the ongoing development on the
3.0 branch,
so that the project can innovate and the code base can become much cleaner and
more
attractive for new committers.
## PMC changes:
- Currently 7 PMC members.
- No changes since the graduation on 2018-03-21
## Committer base changes:
- Currently 8 committers.
- Last added: Siegfried Goeschl on 2020-01-07
