Please Note The Board typically approves the minutes of the previous meeting at the beginning of every Board meeting; therefore, the list below does not normally contain details from the minutes of the most recent Board meeting.

WARNING: these pages may omit some original contents of the minutes.
This is due to changes in the layout of the source minutes over the years. Fixes are being worked on.

Meeting times vary, the exact schedule is available to ASF Members and Officers, search for "calendar" in the Foundation's private index page (svn:foundation/private-index.html).

15 Jun 2011

The ALOIS project team wrote an private e-mail to its mentors shortly after
the last report. They have told us that due to personal reasons they cannot
keep this project alive and there will be no project activity in near
future. We have agreed to wait until the June 2011 comes up. So far there is
no change in project activity or interest, no e-mails and even no more
private messages. After this report the Incubator-PMC needs to discuss about
retiring this podling. (Christian Grobmeier)

In addition to Christian's report, I'd like to mention that we didn't find
any interest in the project outside of our small group, although we did
quite a lot requests off list. If there would be someone to take over the
project, we would be happy to give a helping hand at the start. (Urs Lerch)
