Hi mentors,
Here is the draft of the Feb report for your review.
thanks,

Mynewt
Mynewt is a real-time operating system for constrained embedded systems like
wearables, lightbulbs, locks and doorbells. It works on a variety of 32-bit
MCUs (microcontrollers), including ARM Cortex-M and MIPS architectures.
Mynewt has been incubating since 2015-10-20.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Do a first Apache release capable of producing a downloadable RTOS
image with support for multiple peripherals and network connectivity.
2. Develop and execute policies that enable project contributors to
achieve self-governance
3. Expand community - attract new project contributors and users, grow
committer base
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
None
How has the community developed since the last report?
1. Mailing list activity since last report:
@dev 84 messages(6 Jan to 7 Feb), 7 new subscribers (27 total)
@commits ~280 commits since 6 Jan
2. Repo is being cloned and looked at by several outside parties - need
to increase subscription and participation in the dev mailing list.
3. Participation on the @dev mailing list covered a range of topics
including resolution of licensing issues before the first pre-beta
release, release packaging, feature lists, import path simplification for ease
of installation, unit and regression tests etc. Much of the communication has
been focused on getting a pre-beta release out soon.
How has the project developed since the last report?
1. Feature support: 32 new JIRA issues (46 issues to date) were created to
plan a release path leading up to a beta release in June, 2016. 5 issues out of
them target a first pre-beta release around 12th Feb, 2016.
2. Documentation support: Two new chapters added and a potential new
contributor is undergoing the process to gain committer status.
3. Effort towards community growth: With several new people on the dev list
and offline meetings, interest in the project is growing.
4. Effort towards self governance: One potential contributor is actively
testing the process to gain full committer status through postings of suggested
code on the dev list for vote.
Date of last release:
