Apache Karaf provides higher level features and services
specifically designed for creating OSGi-based servers.
Community
=========
Guillaume Nodet and Jean-Baptiste Onofré were presents at
the ApacheCon.
Two talks were related to Karaf.
Several projects are interested to use Karaf.
The Karaf community starts to help others projects to be OSGi
compliant (work started on Apache Archiva and Apache Whirr).
Development
============
A new release has been voted:
* Apache Karaf 2.2.4
We are now focusing on Karaf 3.0 release (lot of fixes, cleanups
and enhancements in progress).
We also included a new testing framework based on Pax Exam (part
of the Karaf tooling).
The resources for the sub-projects will be created soon (website, etc).
Web Site
========
We published a new web site to fix some typo mistakes and update the
online documentation.
The site will be updated soon to announce and give visibility
to the new sub-projects.
Branding
========
* project website basics: ok
* website nav links: ok
* trademarks: ok
* logo: we added the TM mention on the logo, and provide new "powered by Karaf" logo
* metadata: ok

None so far.

Apache Karaf provides higher level features and services specifically designed for creating OSGi-based servers. Community ========= The community has changed a bit: * Christian Schneider has been voted in as a committer We can note an increase of projects powered by Karaf. Apache ServiceMix and Apache Geronimo already use Karaf. We're discussing with Apache Directory about the usage of Karaf. Development =========== Four releases have been voted: * Apache Karaf 2.1.6 * Apache Karaf 2.2.1 * Apache Karaf 2.2.2 * Apache Karaf 2.2.3 NB: we turned Apache Karaf 2.1.x branch in End Of Life mode. Apache Karaf 2.1.6 is the latest version on this branch. We created the first Apache Karaf sub-project: Apache Karaf Cellar. Apache Karaf Cellar is a cluster and cloud solution for Apache Karaf, powered by Hazelcast and jclouds. We already released: * Apache Karaf Cellar 2.2.1 * Apache Karaf Cellar 2.2.2 We started OBR broadcast and DOSGi implementation. It should be included in Apache Karaf Cellar 2.2.3. We can note that two Karaf sub-projects have been started in sandbox and promoted as Karaf sub-projects: * Karaf WebConsole based on Pax-Wicket. This new console is very extend-able and highly pluggable. The purpose is to provide a complete enterprise administration and monitoring console, including a new look'n feel, and give a way for others projects (like ServiceMix, CXF or Camel for instance), to provide their own branding and modules. http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/karaf/webconsole/ * Karaf Cave is an OBR server implementation, including storage, OBR metadata generation, Maven proxy support, REST API, etc. It will also aim to be a KFR (Karaf Feature Repository) and KAR (KAR Repository). http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/karaf/cave/ We are also discussing with the author of EIK (Eclipse Integration for Karaf) to become a new Karaf sub-project (http://code.google.com/a/eclipselabs.org/p/eik/). Web Site ========= Web site has been updated to provide visibility to sub-projects such as Apache Karaf Cellar. We also gave more visibility to the documentation, allowing to download the PDF format of our guides. Branding ======== * project website basics: ok * website nav links: ok * trademarks: ok * logo: we added the TM mention on the logo, and provide new "powered by Karaf" logo * metadata: ok Issues for board consideration ============================== None so far. |
