###Deprecating Fineract-CN
###Approachability:
The project remains difficult for many new comers. The target user for the software is potentially the reason why this isn't advancing.
###Authentication and Security Framework
This remains an area of concern in the security framework. We are seeking to add more context for users of the software.
###Emeritus status:
We are delayed in our plans to remove people who are no longer active, per the PMC decision of May 2023. We have this as an action item.
###Powered By listing
We (I) have started discussing the idea of putting "powered by" listings of companies using the software on our site, and the potential for thank you pages.
https://apache.org/foundation/marks/linking#projectthanks We will be keeping ASF Marketing & Publicity in the loop.
