Title: 2012-09-19 Apache VCL Board Report ### DESCRIPTION VCL is a modular cloud computing platform which dynamically provisions and brokers remote access to compute resources including virtual machines, bare-metal computers, and resources in other cloud platforms. A self-service web portal is used to request resources and for administration. VCL became a TLP on June 20, 2012. ### CURRENT ACTIVITY * The community has completed the post-graduation tasks. * Work continues to migrate content from Confluence to the new CMS website and to improve the design. * Several commits have been made to the VCL 2.3.1 bugfix branch to address minor problems with VCL 2.3, which was released in July. VCL 2.3.1 will be released this fall. * Traffic on the lists has been fairly high, mostly due to questions related to recently released VCL 2.3. * Development is still in the beginning stage for the VCL 2.4 features. Most development has been devoted to bug fixes. * One of the committers is working to develop code to provide a VCL block in Moodle. Some licensing concerns arose from this due to Moodle's GPL license. [\[1\]](#1) Guidance was provided by legal-discuss. It was decided for this to be a separate non-ASF project independent of the Apache VCL. ### RELEASES * None ### COMMUNITY * Subscribers to the user list: 154 * Posts to user list, 8/2012: 130 * Subscribers to the dev list: 144 * Posts to dev list, 8/2012: 159 * Committers: 9 * PMC members: 6 ### ISSUES * There are no issues requiring board attention at this time. \[1\] [http://markmail.org/thread/leb6jw5e3d45lswy](http://markmail.org/thread/leb6jw5e3d45lswy)
