Report from the Apache Tiles Project ## Description: Apache Tiles is a free open-sourced templating framework for Java applications. Based upon the Composite pattern it is built to simplify the development of user interfaces.
## Activity: Apache Tiles remains a stable but low traffic project. This quarter there has been a little more public activity. A couple of small fixes. A couple of improvements and upgrades. And more community involvement. No releases were cut, but one is now warranted. Responsiveness on the ML dropped this quarter. ## Health report: There are currently two responsive PMC, other PMC help out with votes when needed. Everyone is aware of the how little momentum the project has, but it does not feel abandoned by members, nor not in use by the public. There is room to add another committer to the project. ## Issues Further effort is required to increase health to the project. Previous board report received feedback on what such effort might be. This remains unaddressed by the community, although a new individual is contributing patches. Past ideas remain: from including the StackExchange traffic, following up on some of the development ideas, to publicity and engagement with other communities that have more momentum in the UI space.
