+ <u>Commons Configuration</u>
+ <p>Commons Configuration 1.2 was released in December 2005. This release
mainly addressed some bugs related to file-based configurations and reloading
strategies. There were only a few new features, e. g. a new configuration type
or validation support in XMLConfiguration. At the moment work is in progress on
some often requested features, especially support for XPATH syntax. So the next
release will certainly be a feature release. </p>
+
+ <u>Commons FileUpload</u>
+
+ <p>After a protracted period of inactivity, FileUpload 1.1 was released
just before Christmas 2005. Future work on FileUpload is targetted at a 2.0
release, with associated necessary API changes. </p>
+
+ <u>Commons Net</u>
+ <p>Version 1.4.1 released in December 2005 to restore JDK 1.3
compatibility, enabling VFS to be released as JDK 1.3 compatible. </p>
+
+ <u>Commons Math</u>
+ <p>Version 1.1 was released in December 2005. This release included
numerous bug fixes and enhancements in the random data generation, numerics and
matrix packages. </p>
+
+ <u>Commons Validator</u>
+ <p>Validator 1.2.0 was released in November 2005. The main new piece of
functionality in this version had been in place for some time, however it had
been held up by the number of outstanding bugs. A concerted effort on bugs
(non-enhancement) in the second half of 2005 made the 1.2.0 release possible
and currently bugs are being tackled in a timely manner with a validator 1.2.1
maintenace release planned shortly. </p>
+
+ <u>HiveMind</u>
+
+ <p>HiveMind has released version 1.1.1, which was a bug fix release.
Conceptual work for version 1.2 has started. </p>
+
+ <u>HttpComponents</u>
+
+ <p>With the stable release of HttpClient 3.0 a major milestone has been
reached. At the same time development of the HttpClient 2.x branch is
discontinued. 2.x users are encouraged to migrate. </p>
+
+ <p>Roland Weber joined the team of committers. He is working hard on
http-async. A lot of effort is going into the design of http-core and
http-async currently. The content and design of new project website is shaping
up. </p>
+
+ <u>Tapestry</u>
+
+ <p>- no report - </p>
+
+ <p>[chair] - Tapestry released the 4.0 release they've been building up
to for 9 months or so; agreed on the move to TLP and are hard at work on 4.1.
There's an interesting thread going on about whether to backport 4.1 fixes to
3.x. </p>
