+2007 Board Reports
+
+October 2007 -- Planet Struts
+
+There has been a lot of activity over the last quarter, especially on
+Struts 2. We released Struts 2.0.9 as GA, which includes an important
+security fix, and released Struts 1.3.9 as Beta. Our registry of Struts 2
+plugins continues to grow, with 30 distinct plugins now registered, many
+written by developers outside the project. The number of authors
+contributing to our official documentation wiki also continues to grow.
+
+On the infrastructure side, the Struts security alias, mentioned in last
+quarter's report, has now been set up, and Planet Struts was the first "PMC
+Planet" to be created, thanks to Sam Ruby and Ted Husted. Prompted by
+infrastructure@, we handed back 1.6GB of disk space on people.a.o that we
+didn't actually need.
+
+At ApacheCon US 2007 in Atlanta next month, two tutorials and one session
+will focus on Struts 2, and we expect at least six Struts committers to be
+in attendance. A session on Struts 2 will also be presented at OS Summit
+Asia 2007.
+
+During this quarter, we have added three new committers (Matt Raible, Dave
+Newton, and Brian Pontarelli) and two new PMC members (Henri Yandell and
+Antonio Petrelli).
+
+
+July 2007 -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
+
+Things have been running smoothly this last quarter, with little of
+note for the board at this time.
+
+We have had one GA release, of Struts 2.0.8, and a test build of
+Struts 1.3.9 is up for a quality vote at this time. Both Struts
+2.1 and Struts 1.4 are under active development.
+
+Prompted by a user trying to report a security vulnerability in
+Struts, we have requested a [EMAIL PROTECTED] alias, which we hope will
+be set up shortly. (We believe the reported vulnerability had already
+been resolved.)
+
+No new committers or PMC members have been added in the last quarter.
+
+
+March 2007 -- Bamboo online
+
+This quarter, we made up for the absence of releases in the previous
+quarter, with GA releases of both Struts 1.3.8 and Struts 2.0.6. The
+latter is particularly notable, since it is the first GA release of the
+Struts 2 framework, thus marking an important milestone for the project.
+With a GA release in the wild, we hope to see increased adoption of this
+new framework, with a corresponding growth in the community.
+
+Since the Apache Tiles top-level project was established by the board in
+December, our Tiles colleagues have completed their move out of Struts and
+into their own environment. Of course, there continues to be some overlap
+in the developers and communities, and we are working with our Tiles
+colleagues to ensure that Tiles integration with Struts remains strong.
+
+Thanks to our friends at Atlassian, we now have a hosted Bamboo continuous
+integration system, providing us with regular reports on the status of our
+builds. After a spate of build breakages earlier in the quarter, this has
+helped us identify issues more quickly.
+
+In this last quarter, we have added Paul Benedict to our PMC, and added
+four new committers, namely Philip Luppens, Tom Schneider, Musachy
+Barroso, and Henri Yandell.
+
+Finally, we have added some spiffy new icons to the Struts 2 home page:
+http://struts.apache.org/2.x/index.html
+
+
+January 2007 -- Top-level Tiles
+
+While there have been no new releases in this last quarter, there has been
+a great deal of development activity. Struts 2 has been improving by leaps
+and bounds, and we are close to another 2.0.x release; Tiles has gone
+through significant redesign and cleanup; and Struts 1.x is making steady
+progress towards another release.
+
+In addition to the activity on the code base, and after a great deal of
+discussion, our Tiles subproject was approved by the board as a new top
+level project, and is in the process of moving out on its own. This will
+help further two goals: providing Tiles with the opportunity and
+environment to prosper beyond the confines of Struts; and refocusing the
+Struts team on our core frameworks.
+
+Subsequent to some discussion and debate elsewhere, the Struts team
+reorganised our web site to clearly delineate the portions of the site
+intended for end users versus developers and potential developers.
+
+An XSS vulnerability was reported to the Struts PMC in December. The
+problem has been addressed, and the fix will be included in the upcoming
+Struts 1.3.6 release.
+
+No new committers or PMC members have been added in the last quarter.
