2013-April 
Status Report for the Apache OpenJPA Project

There are no items requiring board attention at this time.

* Highlights
   Apache OpenJPA provides POJO persistence for stand-alone JSE, JEE   
   container and many other lightweight frameworks, such as Tomcat,  
   Spring or OSGi.
   
* Community

   Mailing lists continue to be active and many applications are
   migrating from other vendors to OpenJPA. 

   The developer community had maintained the codebase stable, 
   supported for previous releases and backported resolved defects. 
   
   New features (security, range query optimization in DB2 family databases, 
   bulk update on shards) are implemented by the community of developers.
   
   The documentation infrastructure has been upgraded to use Apache BuildBot services.
 
* Governance

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

* Releases

   Now new releases since last report.
