Yeah - The information seems great to share with the community behind
httpd, IMO, so I think it would make sense to have on the dev@ list...
and it's not like this is a particularly low volume mailing list that
such emails would be considered inbox pollution.

I guess it's just as easy to pull up the minutes each month by hand, too.

2015-06-01 Thread Eric Covener
There's usually just not much to it.  Here's what was last submitted:

Report from the Apache HTTP Server project [Eric Covener]

## Description:

 The Apache HTTP Server Project develops and maintains an
 open-source HTTP server for modern operating systems.

## Activity:

  Overall project activity is low, with various fixes being
  made on maintenance releases but very little forward development.

  Third-party work on an HTTP/2 module was discussed more this
  reporting period, with some enablement work for ALPN revived
  in mod_ssl.

  No security issues have required new releases, so patches have
  collected a little longer than normal in the stable releases.

## Issues:

  There are no issues requiring board attention at this time.

## PMC/Committership changes:

 - Currently 112 committers and 43 PMC members in the project.
 - Christophe Jaillet was added to the PMC on Mon Mar 09 2015
 - Stefan Sperling was added as a committer on Fri Apr 17 2015

## Releases:

 - Last 2.4.x release was 2.4.12 on Jan 26 2015
 - Last 2.2.x release was 2.2.29 on September 3 2014

 P.S.
 I'm not a Member or PMC... do I have access to the report that spurred
 the conversation?


Adding the context back to the thread...

 FWIW: It was this month's PMC status report which kind of

Yes.  The Monthly Board of Directors meeting minutes do become public.
All of the following ASF documents are a matter of public record;

http://www.apache.org/foundation/records/

and you'll find the _Board Calendar and Minutes_ as the fifth link listed on
that page.  Following through to the minutes, as of this moment, minutes
are only current up to March, several months ago, but that is because they
are reviewed by any officer attending and all board board member for errors
and omissions before they are approved at a subsequent meeting.  So this
will be 1-90 days out of sync, occasionally longer.

As far as our report submitted to the board each quarter - and included in
the foundation board minutes, the last published already was Feb '15, so
the subsequent one is last month, May '15 and should show up in another
month or two.  In theory, it isn't our report until 1. it is submitted, the
board
2. considers and 3. accepts the report at their meeting (a few weeks ago),
and 4. accepts the minutes of their meeting as recorded :)

So I'll let Eric share what he submitted for May on our behalf, but here
is the submitted/accepted/recorded report of Feb '15 - it's awfully high
level, so I'm not sure that updating dev@ regularly with the contents
offers a whole lot of benefit.  Thoughts?
