Oct. board report for Mynewt

Hi Mentors,

Here’s the first draft of Mynewt’s board report for Oct.
Please review it today. It is due by tomorrow.

thanks,
aditi

---------------------------
Mynewt 

Mynewt is a real-time operating system for constrained embedded systems like 
wearables, lightbulbs, locks and doorbells. It works on a variety of 32-bit 
MCUs (microcontrollers), including ARM Cortex-M and MIPS architectures. 

Mynewt has been incubating since 2015-10-20. 

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation: 

1. Make further point releases capable of producing a downloadable RTOS image 
with support for multiple peripherals and network connectivity with the goals of the 
first major (1.0) release in the last quarter of 2016 and continued demonstration of 
thorough understanding, repeatability, and maturity of process. 
2. Continue to develop and execute policies that enable project contributors to achieve 
self-governance 
3. Expand community - attract new project contributors and users with diverse
backgrounds, grow committer base 

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be 
aware of? 

None 

How has the community developed since the last report? 

1. Active mailing lists with increasing numbers of subscribers. 15 new subscribers 
on dev@ mailing list since last report.
2. Increased participation by 3rd parties through pull requests for new BSP support,
features, and test cases. Outreach continues via conferences, exhibits, 
one on one meetings, beta testers, GSoC participation. 
3. Vigorous discussions, feature proposals, and implementation suggestions on @dev mailing list. 

How has the project developed since the last report? 

1. Releases: No new releases since June 6th but work on several branches are 
being merged for first 1.0 beta release in October. The project has now closed 100+ pull requests.
2. Planning: Issues including bug reports, features, and wish list captured and tracked in 
ASF JIRA by members of the community. Work continues against 125 tickets opened for 
1.0 releases (beta and GA). 
3. Effort towards self governance: 
- Voting successfully completed to grant committer status to one new candidate since
last report. 

Date of last release: 

2016-06-06 

When were the last committers or PMC members elected? 

2016-10-04

Not sure if there's any value in including it, but I was able to
successfuly deliver a product/project based on MyNewt back in July:
