Board Report, Oltu PMC
Oltu PMC Chair: Antonio Sanso (asanso@apache.org)
Date: November 2013
DESCRIPTION
Oltu is a project to develop a Java library which provides an API specification for, and an unconditionally compliant implementation of the OAuth v2.0 specifications.
OAuth is a mechanism that allows users to authenticate and authorise access
by another party to resources they control while avoiding the need to share
their username and password credentials.
MILESTONES
Apache Oltu OAuth2 0.31 was released on July 3rd.
CURRENT ACTIVITY
The core part of the project related to 'The OAuth 2.0 Authorization Framework' (RFC 6749) is pretty stable due the fact RFC 6749 is now a standard. New parts of the OAuth specification family are currently under development (JWT, JWS and OpenId Connect)
We got a contribution of the Apache Oltu logo that has now been included in the website and in the Oltu demo.
Users activity is growing slowly but steadily (the user@ mailing list has got new messages from potential new users)
