The report looks good. I tried signing it through the wiki but the page is 
showing as 'Immutable Page'. My account
(jonesde) worked before for editing these incubator reports... perhaps someone 
else is editing it or something so I'll
try again later.

Very cool idea, and I think in worst case scenario not too difficult to
redo the work if needed. It's just one page that calls the parser.

For the record, I did that already, as you have seen when signing it
off. I had to call it a rather silent period though...

Re: About a Freemarker template evaluator service

[Daniel Dekany]

Probably there will be a higher chance for positive answer if we can
offer running the service too. Because I guess that's a burden for
them, while owning a piece of software on GitHub is not, that's just
good PR.

Hi Jacopo,

I can take care of 2, I'm used to these kind of things for OFBiz
I guess 1 is a prerequisite and I'm not well placed for this task.

It would be also great if any of you could write a short summary (i.e. a
sentence or two) of the changes to the codebase we did in the last quarter
and add it to the section "How has the project developed since the last
report?"

About a Freemarker template evaluator service

[Jacopo Cappellato]

Hi all,

a couple of days ago Daniel brought to my attention the site/service:

http://freemarker-online.kenshoo.com/

They provide a nice online tool to evaluate any Freemarker template by
providing the template code and its context.

Wouldn't be nice is we could offer that or a similar service to the users
and potential adopters of Freemarker? I think it would be a very useful
tool and also a good mechanism to attract new consumers.

If there is an interest in this community then we could move in two
directions:

1) get in touch with the maintainers of freemarker-online and see if they
are interested to contribute their work [*] or join our community and help
to build a similar one here; if they are not interested then we could
discuss if it would make sense to build our own here

2) get in touch with the Infra team and explore the possibility to set up a
virtual machine to dedicated to our project that we could use to deploy a
similar service, from our official website

I can volunteer to try to get in touch with them (#1); any volunteers for
#2 (or even #1)?

Kind regards,

Jacopo
