Reports submitted to the Apache Board

December 2018

## Description: 
 - Apache Karaf provides a modern and polymorphic applications runtime, multi-purpose (microservices, OSGi, etc).

   
## Issues: 
 - There are no issues requiring board attention at this time

   
## Activity: 
 - Once Karaf 4.2.2 will be released, master will become Karaf 4.3.x, upgrading to OSGi R7.
 - We are working on two new PoC for Karaf:
   * Karaf Vineyard is a API management platform powered by Karaf, providing API registry and gateway
   * Karaf Winegrower is the new karaf boot name. The purpose is to provide a complete framework/tool allowing developers to start very easily with the Karaf ecosystem
 - We also start discussion about improving the Karaf features service to better leverage resources repositories.

   
## Health report: 
 - We can see interaction with different community (jclouds, OpenNMS, ...) and a general activity increase especially from users community
 - We also agree to define a cadence in Karaf runtime and subprojects release cycle (every 3 months). It allows to include fixes/jira update most often in release and gives a better roadmap to our users.
