Draft report - version 2

[Patricia Shanahan <pa...@acm.org>]

This is a draft of the August report to the board on River. Please 
suggest any corrections or improvements.

I think the board likes at least the month on actions such as PMC changes.

=========================================================================
Apache River is a Java-based Service Oriented Architecture, implementing
the Jini Specification and Jini Technology Starter Kit originally
donated by Sun Microsystems.

ISSUES FOR THE BOARD

There are no board-level issues at this time

RELEASES

Apache River 2.2.2 was released on November 18, 2013
Apache River 2.2.1 was released on May 2, 2013.

COMMUNITY

In June, Patricia Shanahan returned from emeritus to active status as a 
committer and PMC member. She was appointed as the River PMC Chair at 
the June board meeting.

A new user has brought to the attention of the PMC some issues in the 
"Getting Started" web pages that may be a barrier to attracting new 
users and to community involvement.

ACTIVITY

Mailing lists and development have been reasonably active in the past 
few months.  There were 28 messages on user@ during May through July 
2014, and 60 messages on dev@.

Four issues have been reported on Jira and two of those have been resolved.
