## Description:
- Apache River software provides a standards-compliant JINI service.
## Issues:
- There are no issues requiring board attention at this time.
## Activity:
- Wrapped up River-3.0.0, released this quarter.
- Continued discussion of River's future direction.
## Health report:
- The ongoing future directions discussion has progressed from high
level strategy to discussion of specific features and use-cases.
- Two PMC members resigned during the quarter, a concern because at
this point there is no stream of incoming developers to provide new
committers and PMC members. Attracting new developers will be difficult
until the future direction is firmed up and made visible.
