> 1. IP clearance to be signed by Univ of Manchester
> 2. Move source code, wiki, issues to apache.org. Restructure git repos.

> Infrastructure bootstrapping takes a long time and requires a series of

> web-site without explicitly asking for it. Documentation for apache.org

> Most of the proposed initial committers have sorted CLAs
> https://wiki.apache.org/incubator/TavernaProposal#Initial_Committers and
> received apache.org account - see
> https://people.apache.org/committers-by-project.html#taverna
>
> Many of the remaining initial committers have not been active in the recent
> years. We're following up these (and others) through private conversations.
> There's been some confusion with regards to the term "committer" - some
> were scared and thought it meant they had to make a committment to work on
> the source code!
>
>
> Not much further development - worried that dev@taverna are scared away by
> the long-dragged bootstrapping which dominates the list.

>
> How has the project developed since the last report?
>
> Source code is being restructured at https://github.com/taverna-incubator
> before being staged to import into git.apache.org
>
> Normal development continues at https://github.com/taverna/ - due to
> prepare the final 2.5.1 non-Apache release.

> Stian Soiland-Reyes was at ApacheCon in Budapest, fruitful discussions with
> mentor Andy Seaborne and Gavin McDonald from INFRA with regards to the
> transitioning of Taverna's existing source code repository, wiki and issue
> tracker (luckily git->git, confluence->confluence and jira->jira).
>
>
> Date of last release:
>
> No release since incubation.

>
> When were the last committers or PMC members elected?

> No new committers or PMC members elected since incubation.
