No arrivals or departures.

We have been getting a reasonable amount of feedback and contributions in terms 
of patches and development ideas. A number of patches has been contributed by 
the users of Apache Synapse.    

There is a enough activity on both user and developer mailing lists. Overall 
the whole community looks and behaves quite healthy.

= Migration =

== Items still in work: ==

 * finalize and approve project bylaws
 * re-instate deployment of website via Subversion (currently deployed by Maven due 
 to TLP migration)

= Development =

HttpClient beta1 has been released.

The first BETA brings yet another round of API enhancements and improvements 
in the area of connection management. Among the most notable ones is the 
capability to handle stateful connections such as persistent NTLM connections 
and private key authenticated SSL connections.

This is the first API stable release of HttpClient 4.0. All further releases 
in the 4.0 code line will maintain API compatibility with this release.

= General Notes. =

HttpClient / HttpCore are now shipped with Google Android platform. We see 
this a major endorsement of our work.
