### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?

### How has the community developed since the last report?
It has been a slow quarter for us. Red Hat had a round of layoffs this quarter which affected their legal team, and the ones working on the Software Grant for Apache.
It has pushed us back quite a ways as we've had to redo a bunch of the work.
We're now targeting the end of June to have all the legal issues finished and the software grant completed.
### How has the project developed since the last report?
