+## Apache BVal Report December 2014 ##
The Apache BVal project implements the Java EE Bean Validation specification(s)
and related extensions, and became a top-level project of the foundation on
February 15, 2012.
### Releases ###
-No new releases.
+No new releases. Last release was v0.5 in September 2012.
### Activity ###
-Low, but clearly discernible, JIRA/commit activity this quarter. Currently the
-project has but one active committer. A lack of volunteer availability/energy
-has left the Commons Weaver dependency situation yet unresolved, but all
things in time.
+The Commons Weaver quasi-dependency bottleneck has as long last been resolved
+and BVal development has resumed. We continue to work with the Apache TomEE
PMC,
+who bundle our project and thereby provide a clear barometer for ease of
+integration. I note the question on the agenda of whether we have enough
+committers to make releases... I assume this refers to BVal, though it could
+have referred to Commons as we did spend an unfortunate amount of time blocked
+there. While the developer energy of most of the PMC is being expended
+elsewhere, I believe we have strong enough representation amongst the wider
+"ApachEE" (i.e. JEE at Apache) community to be handily able to garner the votes
+for a release once we are satisfied with the state of the codebase.
### Community ###
No changes in community.
