- The Apache Lenya project has been busy the last few months to get the 1.2 release out.
- The project saw an increase in mailing list traffic for both the user and developer lists; the number of sites deploying Lenya is growing. Dale Christ was voted in as a new commiter, while Thorsten Scherler became an active commiter again.
- A public demo site turned out to be a useful resource for users to try out Lenya and for developers to quickly confirm bug reports. A Sprint brought developers together for 2 days in Zurich to work on Repository Integration. The sprint was very productive and will be repeated in the future.

Identify the project to be incubated
DONE Make sure that the requested project name does not already exist and check www.nameprotect.com to be sure that the name is not already trademarked for an existing software product.
DONE If request from an existing Apache project to adopt an external package, then ask the Apache project for the cvs module and mail address names.
DONE If request from outside Apache to enter an existing Apache project, then post a message to that project for them to decide on acceptance.
DONE If request from anywhere to become a stand-alone PMC, then assess the fit with the ASF, and create the lists and modules under the incubator address/module names if accepted.
Interim responsibility
DONE Who has been identified as the shepherd for the incubation?
Stefano Mazzocchi Nicola Ken Barozzi
- Are they tracking progress in the file
incubator/projects/{project_name}/STATUS ( No, we are tracking it in incubator/projects/lenya.cwiki. )
