Update on the Metro Proposal:

The board vote on the proposal has been postponed until the next meeting
on Sept 22.  AFAIK this was not due to concerns about Metro but due to a
number of other high priority issues before the board at the moment and
some logistical issues in having all interested board members present for
the vote.

In other words, we'll just have to be patient a little bit longer. :)

In the meantime there are a number of things we can be working on in
preparation for the new TLP.  Here are some items off the top of my head:

1. Further work out details for Avalon Post-Metro.
2. Start separating out SVN and JIRA.
3. Prepare sites for both Avalon and Metro.

and of course, continue existing development.

One large effort for the metro team will be handling the code transition
between Merlin and Metro.  Are you going to change package names?  What
tools will users need to handle the upgrade? and so on.

Anyway, there's plenty to do.
