2011 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:
- No new releases.

Community & Project:

 - The Apache Shiro team is excited to report that we have added
   Jared Bunting as our second new committer after becoming a TLP.  Jared
   has been a great help to the project and he is a welcome addition to the
   team.

 - The team has decided to release Shiro 1.2 as soon as possible.  A release
   vote is likely this week.

 - Significant effort has gone into improving Shiro's reference manual the last
   three months.  It is much better than before and continues to grow as new
   features are added.  Some talk was discussed about finding a new authoring
   format beyond using Confluence, but no changes have been implemented as of
   yet.
