2012 September - Board report for Apache Shiro

Apache Shiro is a powerful and flexible open-source application security
framework that cleanly handles authentication, authorization, enterprise
session management and cryptography.

We have no issues that require Board assistance at this time.

Releases:

- We released a 1.2.1 bugfix release on 28 July 2012.  Current trunk
  development is targeted at a 1.3.0 release (time frame not yet determined).

Community & Project:

- The Shiro community remains helpful, with steady month-after-month mailing
  list traffic.  No noticeable changes here.

- The Shiro site and distribution continues to experience good growth,
  with the site averaging around 10,000 visitors per month and 7,000
  downloads a month from Maven Central, and that number is steadily
  increasing each month.
