             Summary: Add releases cross-check between board reports and DOAP 
files
                 Key: WHIMSY-118
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIMSY-118
             Project: Whimsy
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Shane Curcuru
            Priority: Minor


PMC efforts to keep DOAP files (which generate a number of useful webpages) 
updated vary widely in quality and timeliness.

One simple way to see which PMCs are updating DOAPs is to crosscheck board 
reports of release activity with that PMC's DOAP file(s).  Projects that use 
the reporter.a.o tool make this easy in board reports:

{{## Releases: 
   
 - Last release was 2.4.2 on Wed Apr 15 2015 }}

Highlighting board reported releases that aren't found in DOAP files would be 
useful at some point in the process - probably not during the meeting, but 
perhaps after the meeting in an automated, targeted email that points out the 
new releases not yet marked in DOAPs.
