2013 December - 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 since our May 30 2013 1.2.2 bugfix release.  A 1.3 release
  is still on the horizon as an interim before 2.0.

Community & Project:

- Brian Demers accepted his nomination to the Shiro PMC.  We're happy to have
  him aboard!

- Efforts towards a 2.0 distribution are slow going, as the last quarter has
  been particularly busy for the entire Shiro team.  The community is
  advocating a few issues that probably should be represented in a 1.3
  interim release, so they don't have to wait for 2.0 (JSF release + bug fixes).

- User mailing list has been quite active the last month.  We're grateful for
  a community that helps each other out a lot without as much guidance by the
  core shiro team as might have been necessary earlier in the project's history.
