2011-April Status Report for the Apache OpenJPA Project

There are no items requiring board attention at this time.

Highlights

OpenJPA 2.1.0 was released in February 2011.

Trademark and branding policy

Thanks to Ravi Palacherla who volunteered to migrate our web presence
from Confluence to Apache CMS. The migration is underway. The conversion
to .mdtext and then to .html worked well for most of the pages.
But there are few confluence macros that are not converted to mdtext.
These are being converted manually. The trademarks will be updated as
part of the conversion process.

Community

No new committers nor new PMC members were added this quarter.

Mailing lists continue to be very active, with close to 230 messages 
per month on the dev alias and approximately 150 messages per
month on the users alias.

OpenJPA email subscriptions are stable at approximately 140 subscribers to dev
and 230 to users.

We accepted a code donation from a project that started at codehaus for
openjpa-maven-plugin.

We are working with a Google Summer of Code proposer on a project to improve 
the xml metadata handling of overrides of annotations.

Governance

We continue to monitor contributors for possible committers and committers
for PMC members.
