Thanks! I like your changes, factual and sufficiently informative IMO.

Ok, so mentioning deviations from this is cool of course, there's just
no need to go into much detail about who disagrees with whom (and I
understand we agree on that).

Thanks very much and let's see if the podling wants more detail in a
private section.

I have removed the section from the public report, added a single line
indicating a loss of team members, and sent an email (privately) to the
PPMC (not PPMS) with a proposed change to go in a private section.

This is where things get hairy for this podling.  A JSR was one of their
goals since their proposal came through, as can be read on their initial
proposal http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/TamayaProposal

I object to the paragraphs quoted below about Mark Struberg and Tamaya
and suggest removing them, reworking to avoid mentioning names or
marking them .

Our reports are meant to stay online forever, this excerpt is critical
of Mark in a way that's not needed and goes into lots of details about
that "alternative JSR" story, which are not relevant IMO about the
podling's progress overall.

Someone made a proposal, it was not accepted, that person left -
that's all typical business in our projects.

So maybe just summarize this as "a proposal was made for a different
configuration JSR, which the PPMC didn't agree with, resulting in some
people leaving the project" or something like that.

(there's no PPMS by the way ;-)

Guys,

I'm sorry if this cause great confusion. I skimmed the wiki and noticed
that it still was not marked final. Rookie mistake to edit it.

Generally speaking, the first report is always a series of "Still getting
started."  At this point, I'd prefer to not add new reports (not
comfortable with the Toree change), since the deadline was last Wednesday.
But others can voice their opinions as well.

If you want I can add a brief report about NetBeans but there's not
much to say, it's really just getting started, the code grant is not
in yet so we'll have more to say next month.
