+      <p>The &os; Core Team constitutes the project's "Board of
+	Directors", responsible for deciding the project's overall
+	goals and direction as well as managing specific areas of the
+	&os; project landscape.</p>
+
+      <p>The third quarter of this year was a relatively quiet time in
+	terms of Core Team activity.  One issue stands out as
+	absorbing a great deal of Core's attention during the period:
+	Kip Macy's request to restore his commit bit.  Eventually, and
+	after a great deal of internal discussion, the request was
+	declined.</p>
+
+      <p>Other items dealt with by core during this period:</p>
+
+      <ul>
+	<li>Confirmed that DCTCP, although patented by Microsoft, was
+	  permissible to commit to FreeBSD.</li>
+
+	<li>Promoted git-beta.freebsd.org out of beta-test to an
+	  official service, consequently renaming it to
+	  git.freebsd.org.</li>
+
+	<li>Mediated between groups of contributors and committers
+	  adopting different positions on the on-going work to
+	  introduce ASLR and associated technologies.</li>
+
+      <li>Worked with the &os; Foundation to obtain a license for
+	XenForo, and with the Forum administrators on plans to migrate
+	the FreeBSD forums onto the FreeBSD cluster and to switch to
+	XenForo.</li>
+      </ul>
+
+      <p>During this period, three commit bits were granted, and two
+	commit bits were taken in for safe keeping.</p>
