## Project Activity:
We are working on Karaf5 proposal (https://github.com/jbonofre/karaf5).
We would like to have a first "concrete" base to have a discussion/vote on the mailing
list. Karaf5 will be an important milestone for the project, changing the Karaf perspective
opening Karaf to new communities and users.
We are also working on other Karaf runtimes branches, especially Karaf 4.3.1 will be
released soon, fixing/improving Karaf 4.3.x series.
The Karaf subprojects are also active, especially Decanter with a release including 
new features (Decanter 2.7.0).

- Decanter 2.7.0 was released on 2021-02-15

## Community Health:
We are still working closely with other communities (Camel, ServiceMix, ...).
We have some actions planned with Camel community.
Karaf 5 will be very important and strong milestone for the project, opening
Karaf to even more communities.
