-## Apache BVal Report June 2019 ##
-
- - The Apache BVal project implements the Java EE Bean Validation
-   specification(s) and related extensions, and became a top-level project of
-   the foundation on February 15, 2012.
+## Description:
+The mission of BVal is the creation and maintenance of software related to 
+Apache BVal: JSR-303 Bean Validation Implementation and Extensions
 
 ## Issues:
+No issues requiring board attention at this time.
 
- - There are no issues requiring board attention at this time.
-
-## Activity:
-
- - Over the past quarter the team has managed to put out a needed point
-   release, despite a precipitous drop in the availability of the chair.
-
- - We have accumulated a new committer/PMC member.
-
- - Finally, we have seen recent community participation that during the next
-   quarter will, in all likelihood, result in releases on both the 1.x and
-   2.x development lineages.
-
- - It remains an open task to certify Apache BVal as an implementation of
-   the 2.0 BV specification.
-
-## Health report:
-
- - We retain a small core of developers with the desire to keep this project
-   afloat. It is not clear how to attract additional hands other than to
-   trust that the right people for this niche project will find their way.
-
-## PMC changes: 
-   
- - Currently 14 PMC members. 
- - Thomas Andraschko was added to the PMC on Wed May 15 2019 
-   
-## Committer base changes: 
-   
- - Currently 15 committers. 
- - Thomas Andraschko was added as a committer on Thu May 16 2019 
-   
-## Releases: 
-   
- - 2.0.2 was released on Wed May 15 2019 
-   
-## Mailing list activity: 
-   
- - These numbers reflect the recent flurry of activity:
-   
- - dev@bval.apache.org:  
-    - 42 subscribers (up 0 in the last 3 months): 
-    - 85 emails sent to list (49 in previous quarter) 
-   
- - user@bval.apache.org:  
-    - 54 subscribers (up 0 in the last 3 months): 
-    - 1 emails sent to list (1 in previous quarter) 
-   
-## JIRA activity: 
-   
- - 5 JIRA tickets created in the last 3 months 
- - 3 JIRA tickets closed/resolved in the last 3 months 
+## Membership Data:
+Apache BVal was founded 2012-02-14 (8 years ago)
+There are currently 15 committers and 14 PMC members in this project.
+The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 8:7.
+
+Community changes, past quarter:
+- No new PMC members. Last addition was Thomas Andraschko on 2019-05-15.
+- No new committers. Last addition was Thomas Andraschko on 2019-05-16.
+
+## Project Activity:
+Apache BVal 2.0.3 was released on 2019-08-19. A maintenance release
+along the 1.1.x branch of activity is planned for the near future.
+
+## Community Health:
+With last quarter's addition of a new volunteer to the PMC and
+committer roster, our capacity to keep up with maintenance tasks has
+increased. Our mailing list traffic is low; as noted in the past
+our usual model is frenzied activity for a spec-compliant release,
+then the maintenance cycle, much like the proverbial "periods of
+boredom punctuated by periods of terror" commonly attributed to war.
+Our JIRA activity also reflects this: two issues opened and closed
+with patches provided, accepted, and applied during the quarter.
+Another issue opened to request a release of those changes on a
+dormant line of development (the aforementioned 1.1.3 release).
