During the first quarter of 2016, the most important business + of the &os; Core Team has been to respond to the harassment + incident last year. Core's actions were to assemble a + timeline of the events and in the light of that to review + Core's actions at the time; and to make recommendations about + how better to handle such cases in future. During this + process, draft reports were reviewed by people concerned in + the case and in addition a number of interested members of the + &os; community. Core would like to thank everyone involved + for their contributions.

+ +

The report was published to the &os; developer community in + mid-February, and contained six recommendations for the + community to consider.

+ +

Core is also coordinating with the committee headed by Anne + Dickinson who are reviewing the Code of Conduct. A corpus of + case studies is being assembled, which will be re-examined to + see what impact changes to the Code of Conduct would have + had.

+ +

Core, together with John Baldwin, are working on a plan to + create a separate repository containing GPLv3 toolchain + components. This will allow modernization of code within base + beyond what the existing GPLv2 toolchain can handle, and + permit support of certain new architectures where a copyfree + licensed alternative (i.e., LLVM) is not yet available. A + position paper will soon be circulated to developers for + comment.

+ +

During this quarter three new commit bits were issued, and + one was returned for safekeeping. Please welcome Wojciech + Macek, Jared McNeil and Stanislav Galabov, and bid farewell to + Davide Italiano, who although too busy to work on FreeBSD + directly, will still be contributing through his work upstream + on lld and other parts of the toolchain.
