## Project Activity:
The first Apache Karaf European Meetup stood "virtually" using Zoom with the help of Codecentric. We had 80 people registered and around 50 people during the meetup.
We can say the event has been a success. Three talks were given:
- Karaf on the cloud (JB Onofré, Apache)
- Karaf at Netflix (Dmitry Vasilyev, Netflix)
- Karaf roadmap (open discussion)
We saw lot of interest and enthusiasm about Apache Karaf.
The meetup has been recorded and available on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYXT5y8gwAg
On the other hand, resulting to the discussion with the community and during the meetup (and after), a new PoC has started about Karaf: Karaf DevX. The purpose is to provide a way better developer experience with Karaf. DevX PoC started and we will communicate on the mailing list as soon as we have something "showable" to the community.
About the release front, Apache Karaf Decanter 2.4.0 has been released with new collectors (ConfigAdmin, OSHI, ...), new layer named processors (allowing to perform any processing between collectors and appenders, for instance aggregation), and some fixes.
About Apache Karaf runtime, 4.2.9 will be submitted to release soon, especially to fix issue with the shell. Karaf 4.3.0.RC2 is also in preparation as new step to 4.3.0 GA release.
