The Board Report for April is due tomorrow, which for all practical purposes means it needs to be written today. Bryan as a committer, much better progress towards an initial Incubator release (thanks Bryan and Kevin), *finally* taking care of ASF licensing, and the compact protocol are the major items that I can think of off the top of my head. Additionally, the mailing lists and JIRA have each seen more activity this quarter than any previous quarter. Twisted, .NET 2.0, and Ruby 1.9 are all major new environments supported, but I don't know if they belong in a board report. The instant releases and more cross-pollination (PoweredBy has expanded, Cassandra uses Thrift in incubation, the Avro discussions, Carlos's Hadoop work and the HBase investigations) are also snazzy.
Cheers, Michael
