May Board report

All, 
The May board report is going to be due on Wednesday, May 2. 

http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/May2012

Anybody willing to take a shot?

Also, I'd like to see some discussion about graduation and to see the community taking concrete actions to make graduation a reality.

Thanks Aaron. 

My one quibble would be with the "Top issues before graduation". "We feel we have reached the minimum recommended independent committers. 6 committers from 4 organizations.". Although I think that may be true, in general. I'm not sure that the community has made that assessment… "The current committers, expect to grow our number of committers over the next month." doesn't really apply as a graduation issue. 

IMO, the top issue before graduation is the community needs to start working towards graduation -- discuss if we're ready, then start following the process to graduate. If we start now, then I think a June graduation is possible.

All,

A draft board report is available for review.

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/VCL/2012-05+Incubator+VCL+Report

Please make comments or revise as needed.

For those new in the community, a board report is a status of the
project that is filed quarterly to the Apache Incubator board.

Thanks,

I will do it if no one else wants to take a shot.  If someone would
like to try it? I can guide you through the steps. Just let me know.

Yes, we need to start discussing graduation. I'll start a separate
thread today for the community.


Also if anyone on the list is working on something within Apache VCL,
bugfixes, local customizations that would benefit others, brokering
resources from other clouds(public or private), chargeback for
departmental accounting, etc.  We've had some good discussions lately
about EC2 based api and IBM smart cloud provisioning module, etc. Just
like to see that continued.

Please make sure to start discussing it on the list and also create a
jira issue. The community would love to hear about it and also
multiple folks might be working in the same area. You don't know
unless you start discussing it. :)


Thanks,
Aaron
