[OOTB-hive] Status update

[Jan Pfitzner]

Hi,
@Oksana: Nice! thanks for pushing things forward.

regarding voting & members:
imho we should be more open here - openess is a key! It doesn't count if someone works for Alfresco, an Alfresco Partner or 'Microsoft' :). The goal is to establish an community board that is independent from Alfresco Inc. So if anyone likes to spent his or her time supporting the OOTB it's fantastic as long as they respect the code of conduct, e.g. not acting just to promote his commercial product/addon/extension....

Cheers, jan
