## Description:
- Apache ACE is a software distribution framework that allows you to centrally manage and 
 distribute modular software components, configuration data and other artifacts to OSGi
 based and related target systems.

## Issues:
- Last time, the board asked us to clarify a couple of things:
 - We mentioned there were off-list discussions about future work.
 These were informal discussions between some committers, but nothing came out
 that was worth sharing. In hindsight we could have omitted this from the report.
 We are obviously aware that any decisions need to be made on the list.
 - It was mentioned that activity was low, asking us if there are still 3 PMC around.
 We acknowledge that activity was (and still is) low, but there are still at least
 3 PMC members around to answer questions and fix bugs.

## Activity:
- Activity is still fairly low.

## Health report:
- It is fair to say that the project is in "maintenance mode" at the moment. There are
 still enough PMC members around, but activity is low.

## PMC changes: 
 
 - Currently 11 PMC members. 
 - No new PMC members added in the last 3 months 
 - Last PMC addition was Bram de Kruijff on Mon Jul 08 2013
## Committer base changes:
