-----------------------------------------
Attachment G: Status report for the Apache Buildr Project

Apache Buildr is a Ruby-based build system for Java-based applications,
including support for Scala, Groovy and a growing number of JVM languages
and
tools.

We released Buildr 1.4.8 on November 1st containing 7 enhancements, 7 bug
fixes
and a few minor changes from 5 different contributors/committers. We
released a
subsequent "hot-fix" release (1.4.9) a week later to address a
non-deterministic
bug affecting some users. Thanks to the work of Peter Donald (committer), we
have continuous integration testing working again on Jenkins covering
multiple
versions of Ruby (1.8.7, 1.9.2, JRuby 1.7.0) and platforms (Linux, Windows)
and
our automated release scripts have been cleaned up.

The mailing lists remain relatively quiet and we continue to receive
contributions at a rate of about one per month on average.

We have no issues that require board attention.
