Apache Tapestry is a Java component-based web framework that features high productivity, great code reuse, robust deployment, and terrific performance.
Any issues for the Board? We have begun to discuss the process of a change in project lead, as Howard Lewis Ship's involvement in the project has markedly decreased over the last year or more. When did the project last make any releases? The latest stable version of Tapestry (5.3.8) has been released 20 Nov 2014. We have made available the a series of beta builds of the upcoming 5.4 release, (most recently, 5.4-beta-35, on 23 Aug 2015), following successful votes. Although a consensus has been reached to pursue a release candidate, the effort is currently stalled. Describe the overall activity in the project over the past quarter. Activity on the user mailing list is slow. Questions are answered with participation of not only the core contributors but also by the community at large. Discussion focuses especially around new features of the upcoming 5.4 release. There are also occasional announcements concerning third-party libraries developed entirely outside the Tapestry team. Activity on the dev mailing list is medium. The focus of development currently lies on the upcoming Tapestry 5.4 which will bring major improvements in JavaScript support and other new features. At this point we are primarily looking at fixing bugs (from our large backlog) and documenting the significant new features. When were the last committers or PMC members elected? Jochen Kenmade has been voted in as a committer on 25 Apr 2014, and subsequently been voted into the PMC (2 Mar 2015). Project branding or naming issues, either in the project or externally. No known issues. Branding requirements progress: * "Website Navigation Links: navbar links included, link to www.apache.org included" - License and Security links are missing * "Logos and Graphics: include TM, use consistent product logo on your site" - TM missing from logo Legal issues or questions: None. Infrastructure issues or strategic needs: None. -- Howard M. Lewis Ship Starting with WalMart Labs on Sep 28th! Creator of Apache Tapestry (971) 678-5210 http://howardlewisship.com @hlship
