 **Definition of done:** zero untriaged issues, v0.15.0 stable shipped, roadmap and governance
 published.
 
+**Status — 2026-07-04:** Halfway through Phase 0. Shipped: **v0.15.0**, the first release under
+active maintenance — dependency + security refresh (~90 updates incl. `x/net`), Go 1.25, four
+provisioning/connector bug fixes (#1999, #2255, #1274, #2061) and a metrics perf win (#2268);
+triage complete; governance and the four foundational ADRs published. Release tooling was hardened
+along the way — CI now cross-builds `linux/386` and the release Docker image, so release-only build
+breaks are caught on PRs. **Remaining:** public Project board, CNCF Sandbox application, and
+community (Discord + monthly call) — the non-code items that pair with the launch announcement, and
+recruiting a co-maintainer (the gate on the deferred Tier-1 lifecycle work: #1659, arch-v2).
