2008-July Imperius Incubator status report

Imperius has been incubating since November 2007.

Imperius is a rule-based infrastructure management tool

Code: 	Made several enhancements to the code:
1. Added cascaded policy evaluation capability for Java-SPL. 
This allows one policy to invoke another as part of its decision.
2. Access to private members of anchor classes using java-bean style 
get/set methods
3. Added ability to make complex calls like a.b.c() in the decision section.

Community: A couple of new teams are trying to prototype with Imperius 
(2 from IBM, 1 university). No new committers or contributors since the
last report.

The initial set of committers is still incomplete. The issue is slow
resolution of the CCLA/ICLA contracts in BigCo. 

Graduation is not on the table based on the size and diversity
of the community; and there has not been a release of code.
