 Hi all,
 
 I'd like to call a vote to have Petar Tahchiev as a Jakarta Committer.
 
 Petar currently works as software engineer in Bulgaria, but was a MSc
 student last year, when we proposed porting the Cactus build to Maven
 2 as a GSOC (Google Summer of Code) project. Although the project
 didn't make it to the allotted ASF projects, Petar kept doing the
 (hard) work, despite my slowness to support him.
 
 Prior to participate on Cactus development, he made some contributions
 to Apache Ant and other ASF projects. He also has a blog at java.net
 (http://weblogs.java.net/blog/paranoiabla/).
 
 A couple of months ago, I failed (again :-() to setup a sandbox SVN
 branch at ASF for him to continue his work, so he ended up creating a
 separated repository on SourceForge where we could do some work in
 parallel. Now that code is ready to come back to the Jakarta codebase,
 and the proper legal measures has already been taken (see
 http://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/jakarta-cactus-tahchi
 ev.html). 
 
 Besides the technical aspect, I can tell from personal experience that
 he is a talented and enthusiastic developer, and will be a valuable
 contributor to the Cactus/Jakarta communities. So, here is my (PMC
 binding) +1 vote.

Jakarta Board Report

2007-03-26 Thread Martin van den Bemt

March 2007 Jakarta Board Report

Status

Activity seems to pick in projects that haven't been so active, so that's
really good news. Besides the releases and the code donation (see Cactus)
and the releases, there is nothing in particular that needs board attention
at this moment.
On a side note : I really hope we can go back to the 3 month schedule again.
If there is something out of the ordinary however, I will add an extra report.

Releases

* 13 February 2007 - Commons Fileupload 1.2 Released
* 17 March 2007 - Commons HttpClient 3.1-rc1 Released
* 18 March 2007 - Commons Transaction 1.2 Released
* 18 March 2007 - Jakarta Regexp 1.5 released

Cactus

Currently in the process of voting on a new committer (Petar Tahchiev).
After this vote a vote will be started to finish the code donation
by Petar, for more details of the code grant, please see
http://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/jakarta-cactus-tahchiev.html.

Commons FileUpload

The release 1.2 of Commons Fileupload 1.2 introduces a new streaming API,
which allows to use the library with arbitrarily large files and an extremely
low memory profile.

POI

Gearing up for a release of 3.0, which hopefully will be in a month or so's
time.

Regexp

Released 1.5 version of Regexp which brings number of known issues down to 3.
Dev and user lists are quiet.

Mvgr,
Martin
