Based on a discussion on -private raised by Noah, I've added a graf to the board report as follows:
How has the community developed since the last report? We have noticed a trend of features for CloudStack being developed outside of the Apache CloudStack community and "thrown over the wall." We are identifying features that may not have been developed appropriately and requiring contributors to either demonstrate that they have been discussed and developed in the open, or requiring IP clearance for those features. We have also opened discussion about this on the -dev mailing list and ensuring that committers understand the obligations to development in the open. (Full report here: http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/January2013) The rest of the report remains the same. Since I've changed the report, I've "zeroed out" the signed-off-by (it was signed off by Jim Jagielski, Olivier Lamy, and Mohammad Nour El-Din previously). Thoughts, comments, flames?
