Draft Board report for December 2006
Hi,
Here's a draft of the Board report we need to submit this month.
Comments welcome.

Apache Tomcat Board Report, December 2006
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Issues requiring the Board's attention: none.
Development
------------------
Work continues apache on Tomcat 6 and the mod_jk connector. Both
products have done multiple alpha- and beta-level releases since the
last Board report. Both have received increased testing from the
committers as well as outside contributors, resulting in some
interesting issues discovered and addressed. We hope to have a stable
mod_jk release, 1.2.20, in the next week or two, and the first stable
Tomcat 6 release before the next Board report.
Several of the fixes found in Tomcat 6 have been back-ported to Tomcat
5.x as well, but there has been no 5.x release since 5.5.20 in
September.

Not much going on here: no new committers, no new PMC members, but no
one resigning or leaving either ;)

Hi,
Here's an updated draft with PMC feedback. Take a day or two to
comment if you'd like: I'm aiming to send this in to the Board by 5pm
EST tomorrow (Monday).

Apache Tomcat Board Report, December 2006
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Issues requiring the Board's attention: none.
Development
------------------
Work continues apache on Tomcat 6 and the mod_jk connector. Both
products have done multiple alpha- and beta-level releases since the
last Board report. Both have received increased testing from the
committers as well as outside contributors, resulting in some
interesting issues discovered and addressed. We hope to have a stable
mod_jk release, 1.2.20, in the next week or two, and the first stable
Tomcat 6 release before the next Board report.

one resigning or leaving either ;)
Security
------------
On December 7th a possible security issue was reported to us by the
Struts PMC, which had been notified of it earlier. After some
discussion, we concluded this was a fairly minor issue with
responsibility on both the Tomcat and Struts sides. There was a patch
available in SVN within a day or so, and it was back-ported to
previous Tomcat branches as well.
Because the issue has yet to be publicly announced and this Board
report may become public before the issue is announced, we are
omitting the actual details here. The Tomcat PMC will be glad to
provide any details required, and the discussions are archived on the
mailing list archives of private@tomcat.apache.org,
private@struts.apache.org, and security@tomcat.apache.org.
