The report looks good and I have signed it off. Some minors suggestions: * instead of answering "There were no changes" to the question "How has the community developed since the last report?", we could say a sentence about the fact that the community is quite but active, most of the effort went in the effort of preparing/voting the new releases and that the questions and proposals from users have been addressed and discussed in the mailing lists * question "How has the project developed since the last report?": we could add a sentence that says that this time the release process went smoothly after the practice done during the previous release
