There's two PoC on the way:

• Karaf DevX (https://github.com/jbonofre/karaf/tree/DEVX/devx)
• Karaf Spring Boot support (https://github.com/jbonofre/karaf/tree/SPRING-BOOT/spring-boot)

These two new features will be discussed on the mailing list as soon as we have a full story to show.

We migrate our Jenkins build to ci-builds.a.o now using pipeline build.

In term of releases, we did:

• Apache Karaf Cellar 4.2.1 was released on 2020-08-21.
• Apache Karaf Cellar 4.2.0 was released on 2020-07-18.
• Apache Karaf Decanter 2.5.0 was released on 2020-06-22.
• Apache Karaf runtime 4.2.9 was released on 2020-06-09.

Apache Karaf 4.2.10 is in preparation with several fixes and improvements.

Apache Karaf 4.3.0 is also in preparation. We are waiting for Pax Web 8.0, however in the meantime, we are evaluating the use of Felix HTTP as default instead.

## Community Health:
We are happy to have received several talk proposals for ApacheCon.

We are increasing our partnership with other Apache projects, especially Apache Camel to help on the camel-karaf project (cleanup, refactoring, improvements).

Regarding ServiceMix, we are still in the process to move ServiceMix parts to Karaf, but due to other activities, we have postponed a bit.
