In case Guillaume delegates the board report to me, I thought I would get in early and produce a draft in case anyone else has anything to add. It is due in a few days time.
Guillaume, feel free to send as is or add in more info if you want or receive further feedback. It DOESN'T have download numbers in as yet. I jump on a plane tonight but I can progress further if need be in a couple of days time. Cheers, Paul. ////////////// ## Description: Apache Groovy is a multi-faceted programming language for the Java platform.
