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