Thank you!

- Currently I have GH issues attached to the ATR repository via a Project VM 
tracking issue: https://github.com/apache/tooling-trusted-releases/issues/495
- Sebb is working a new test server which will be like the existing server. It 
will checkout branches from the existing svn repositories.
- Once that is in place you should be able to ssh onto the machine and make 
changes as the tooling team is ready.
- ATR Project track is here: 
https://github.com/apache/tooling-trusted-releases/issues/469 - it will be a 
week or two before we start work on those issues.
- BAT Reporter integration issues can be found in the private 
apache/tooling-agenda repository.

It is an open question if we migrate the reporter and project code to GH. We 
can make that decision as we go along.

[email protected] or the #apache-trusted-release slack channel. If you 
would prefer a separate slack channel I can set it up.

Best,
Dave
