[REPORT] Apache Tiles September 2018

[Mick Semb Wever <mc...@apache.org>]

## Description:
 Apache Tiles is a free open-sourced templating framework for Java
applications. Based upon the Composite pattern it is built to simplify
the development of user interfaces.

## Activity & Health report:
 User and dev ML traffic was lower this quarter.
Commits and Issues ML traffic show a small increase.

 The last release was Tiles-3.0.8, on November 18th 2017.

 There are currently two responsive PMC, other PMC help out with votes
when needed.  In total there are 8 PMC members, and 10 committers.

 The last PMC/committer was added on Mon Apr 23 2012,
being Nicolas LE BAS.

 The initial agreement from the two responsive PMC to
move the project to the Attic still stands.
 Initiating the process has been on hold as some contributions have
come in, albeit small bugs fixes.
 There is low-hanging-fruit tasks of moving the codebase onto JDK11
for any new contributors to get into.
 If no new activity eventuates then the process of moving to the Attic,
starting off with an announcement to  users ML and then a vote, will
commence in the next quarter.

## Issues:
 There are no issues requiring board attention at this time.
