  '''General Comments'''
  
- Keiron Liddle was removed from the PMC with the invitation to rejoin at any time should he become active again. No new committers. No new PMC-level issues. The project continues to suffer from the "no longer a hype" problem, i.e. user interest is high, contributor interest rather low.
+ Keiron Liddle has left the PMC due to his lack of time to attend to XMLGraphics matters. He has a standing invitation to rejoin at any time should he become active again. No new committers. No new PMC-level issues. The project continues to suffer from the "no longer a hype" problem, i.e. user interest is high, contributor interest rather low.

  '''FOP'''
  
- A lot of bugfixing has happened further stabilizing the new code. New features added include support for "before"-floats, PDF/A-1b and PDF/X-3:2003 PDF profiles and page-number-citation-last (the latter from XSL 1.1). No code was released during the past three months, but a stable release is on the radar. However, it won't be version 1.0. For that a few features have been identified to be missing.

- Our two GSoC students are implementing "float" support and support for auto table layout. Both projects will make an important addition to FOP's feature set.
