+2011 December - Board report for Apache Shiro
+
+Apache Shiro is a powerful and flexible open-source application security
+framework that cleanly handles authentication, authorization, enterprise
+session management and cryptography.
+
+We have no issues that require Board assistance at this time.
+
+Releases:
+- No new releases.
+
+Community & Project:
+
+ - In our last report, we were considering voting on 1.2 as soon as possible.
+ Instead, we delayed the vote to allow finishing a number of issues
+ related to making password hashing much easier for applications. That work
+ is 95% complete and it is expected that a 1.2 vote will happen within a
+ week or two.
+
+ - The community continues to grow, with new articles being written by the
+ community. We appreciated and were excited to see an extremely thorough
+ article written by Meri covering Shiro cryptography:
+ http://meri-stuff.blogspot.com/2011/12/apache-shiro-part-3-cryptography.html
+
+ - The mailing lists remain healthy. Much of the community is awaiting the 1.2
+ release, and this has become our highest priority.
