Couple of things missing: - Gary Gregory joined the PMC - FileUpload 1.2.1 was released
Another point, perhaps not relevant to the report - although we did one m1 release (Pool 1.4) that included OSGi metadata - I doubt I will do that manually again, so probably releases will only include OSGi metadata if we use m2 as the primary build tool for releases. Do we want to make using m2 a commons-wide policy? All but two components (jelly and attributes) have m2 builds, so IMO it would be a good idea.
