Hello all

In the last 6 months, I proposed plans for SIS 1.0 releases [1][2] but
have been unable to carry the work. I'm caught in emergency work since
many months, weekends included, with no time left for other work. I'm no
longer following OGC activity, not participating to Google Summer of
Code this year, no longer working on GeoAPI, etc. Commits are happening
on SIS source code repository as a side effect of that emergency work
(improvements in reading raster data from netCDF files), but they are
not the work that we need for an Apache SIS release. The release is
blocked by a few regressions not yet fixed after almost one year. Even
if we accept the regressions without fixing them, doing a SIS release
currently requires about one full day. I may be able to dedicate more
time to SIS and GeoAPI next month - maybe - but I have said that many
times in previous months.

For the report to Apache board due next week, despite having wrote in
the two previous reports that a release would arrive soon, I have to
said that it did not happen. Should we try to inject new energy by
rotating the chair? It may not unblock immediately the SIS release, but
maybe it would help to increase involvement of alternate peoples.
