Here is a draft of the report due tomorrow; feedback welcome.

## Description:
Apache Xalan exists to promote the use of XSLT. We view XSLT (Extensible 
Stylesheet Language Transformations) as a compelling paradigm that transforms 
XML documents, thereby facilitating the exchange, transformation, and 
presentation of knowledge. The ability to transform XML documents into usable 
information has great potential to improve the functionality and use of 
information systems. We intend to build freely available XSLT processing 
components in order to engender such improvements.

## Project Status:
Current project status: The project status is ongoing focused on the Java side
of the house. Issues for the board: None.

## Membership Data:
Apache Xalan was founded 2004-09-30 (20 years ago)
There are currently 57 committers and 5 PMC members in this project.
The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 8:1.

Community changes, past quarter:
- No new PMC members. Last addition was Joseph Kessselman on 2023-08-07.
- No new committers. Last addition was Joseph Kessselman on 2023-06-29.

## Project Activity:
Work in ongoing in the Xalan-J component toward supporting newer XSLT features
with the goal of supporting the XSLT 3 specification. There is a also a desire
to continue releasing the 2.x line.

## Community Health:
The work in the Xalan-J component is performed by a small amount of dedicated 
developers. There is very low activity on the C side of the house, usually a 
query or report here and there.
