-<p>There has been good progress towards resolving the outstanding ECCN issues

-<p>The final tasks relating to Turbine becoming a TLP have finally been

-<subsection name="ECCN Status and activity">
-
-<p>While this issue has been highlighted by Bill for the current round of
- reports, it has been on our radar for some time now.</p>
-<p>The following areas had the potential to require ECCN registration due to
- their use of a "symmetric algorithm employing a key length exceeding 56 bits"
- and/or because they "were designed to work with strong cryptographic
- libraries":</p>
-<ol>
- <li>fulcrum-crypto - used the cryptix library to implement Unix crypt()</li>
- <li>The Crypto Service in Turbine Core, from which fulcrum-crypto was
- extracted - also used the cryptix library</li>
- <li>fulcrum-yaafi - supports decryption of strongly encrypted configuration
- files</li>
- <li>fulcrum-pbe - supports strong encryption/decryption of files</li>
-</ol>
-<p>In particular, the following actions have taken place:</p>
-<ul>
- <li>the cryptix dependency has been removed from fulcrum-crypto and Turbine
- core's Crypto Service (replaced with
- org.apache.jetspeed.services.security.ldap.UnixCrypt from the JetSpeed Portal
- project).</li>
- <li>the exposed interfaces and underlying implementation of fulcrum-yaafi and
- fulcrum-pbe have been modified to ensure that only DES (56 bit key length)
- can be used (strong encryption was never used but was available through the
- exposed interfaces).</li>
-</ul>
-<p>It is our understanding that after our next release of the following
- components, no aspects of the Apache Turbine project will require ECCN
- registration:</p>
-<ul>
- <li>fulcrum-crypto-1.0.7 - ETA some time in the next few weeks</li>
- <li>turbine-2.3.3 - ETA some time in the next month or so</li>
- <li>fulcrum-yaafi-1.0.6 - ETA some time in the next few weeks</li>
- <li>fulcrum-pbe-1.0.0 - Not yet a released component so no release required in
- order to comply.</li>

<subsection name="Turbine core project">
-<p>The Turbine Core trunk and turbine-site modules have been updated to ASL 2.0
- - this was long overdue and is in preparation for a future release.</p>
-<p>The changes to fulcrum-crypto have been backported to the Crypto Service so
- as to eliminate the ECCN registration requirement for Turbine core.</p>
-<p>We are working on releasing Turbine 2.3.3 - this has primarily been waiting
- on the DB Project's Torque 3.3 release which is likely to appear in the next
- couple of weeks.</p>
+<p>There has been quite a bit of progress towards Turbine 2.3.3:</p>
+<ul>
+ <li>Thomas Vandahl has added l10n support to the ParameterParser
+(cleaning up the code quite a bit in the process) and integrated this
+into the Intake validation service. In the process of doing this Thomas
+has removed a few undesirable service interdependencies, thus resolving
+a long standing stumbling block on our quest to separate the services
+out of turbine core.</li>
+ <li>Dependency versions have been updated.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>The 2.3.3 release is now pretty much ready to go. Thomas Vandahl is
+mentoring Juergen Hoffmann through the release process.</p>
+<p>Discussion on the naming of a future trunk release has been kicked off.
+The possibility of jumping to "Turbine 4" is being considered.</p>
