June 2014

Apache Karaf provides higher level features and services
specifically designed for creating OSGi-based servers.

Community
=========
The talk "Apache Karaf in real life" has been provided by a committer during the latest ApacheCon NA 2014.
Talks have been submitted by different committers for the next ApacheCon Europe 2014.

We can note a couple of books available (or in preparation) about Karaf and its sub-projects (Cellar, Cave, EIK).
There have been three articles in the german JavaMagazin about Karaf 3.0 in April, Mai and June. 

We started to work on the next Karaf 4.0.0 branch including a lot of new features and improvements.
