Hi folks, Time for another board report (actually a little behind schedule since they want it by Wednesday).
Please review and comment. Thanks, -Alex ------------------ Apache Flex is an application framework for easily building Flash-based applications for mobile devices, the browser and desktop. RELEASES -Apache Flex FalconJX 0.6.0 was released on 4/3/16. -Apache Flex SDK 4.15.0 was released on 1/9/16. -Apache Flex BlazeDS 4.7.2 was released on 11/16/15. -Apache Flex Tour De Flex Component Explorer 1.2 was released on 11/28/14. -Apache Flex Tool API 1.0.0 was released on 11/20/14 -Apache Flex Squiggly 1.1 was released on 10/26/14 -Apache Flex Installer 3.2.0 was released on 6/23/15. ACTIVITY The past three months saw the first of what we hope are many "Apache FlexJS World Tour" events. In early April we invited people to attend a one day orientation and hackathon on FlexJS, a version of Flex that is independent from the Adobe Flash Platform. Many folks attended on-line as well. Some potential committers are hopefully among them. In addition, 2 PMC members attended ApacheCon NA and reported larger than expected attendance. Most activity seems to be centered around FlexJS, with the main focus being on Maven Integration, plus efforts to show that FlexJS is a more efficient way to build applications with other JS frameworks and even for building Apache Cordova apps. COMMUNITY -Olaf Krüger was added as a committer. -No new PMC members this quarter. -Last PMC addition was Josh Tynjala on Wed Sep 16 2015. Committers not on the PMC haven't been highly active, so we have not discussed promoting any of them to the PMC at this time. -Latest analytics include a little less than XXX hits per day on the website during the work week (less on weekends). -There were more than XXX installs of Apache Flex 4.15.0 since its release in January. -Almost ZZZZ people have run the Tour De Flex application. Tour De Flex is a set of examples folks use to learn how to develop Flex applications. TRADEMARKS -A company is promoting a software product called Flex that appears to be related to themes/styles for website visuals. Despite several attempts to contact them, they have not responded. We have asked Trademarks@ for advice on next steps.
