The Apache BVal project implements the Java EE Bean Validation specification(s)
and related extensions, and became a top-level project of the foundation on
February 15, 2012.
None to speak of this quarter, which is normal for BVal: occasionally there is
a frenzy of activity to effect a release, but these are punctuated by relative
silence. As mentioned in previous reports, the specification process for Java
Bean Validation 2.0 proceeds and seems to be nearing completion. There will be
a resumption of activity in this project in response to that.
The project staff remains busy elsewhere, for the most part. BVal is curated
on a obligation basis more than anything else at this point. It is perhaps not
the ideal scenario for project health, but it remains tenable.
