Board Report, Oltu PMC Oltu PMC Chair: Antonio Sanso (asa...@apache.org<mailto:asa...@apache.org>) Date: May 2014
DESCRIPTION Oltu is a project to develop a Java library which provides an API specification for, and an unconditionally compliant implementation of the OAuth v2.0 specifications. OAuth is a mechanism that allows users to authenticate and authorise access by another party to resources they control while avoiding the need to share their username and password credentials. MILESTONES Apache Oltu 1.0 was released on March 3rd. CURRENT ACTIVITY The core part of the project related to 'The OAuth 2.0 Authorization Framework' (RFC 6749) is pretty stable due the fact RFC 6749 is now a standard. A stable version 1.0 was released on March 3rd. The current focus is on extending the coverage for the IETF JOSE specifications e.g. JWS, JWE (that are strictly correlated to OAuth 2). Users activity is growing slowly but steadily (the user@ mailing list has got new messages from new users) COMMUNITY PMC composition has not changed since graduation We have voted one new committer since graduation ISSUES There are no issues requiring board attention at this time.
