Apache Geronimo Board Report
Releases
Geronimo 2.2 was released in late December. The Geronimo landing page does not yet include a news article for this. Is that because we are waiting for something from PR?
Server
Work on the trunk version has continued to convert the server to run within the Karaf OSGi environment.
Plugins
The Jetty and Apache Tomcat versions have been upgraded in trunk to support the newer servlet specs that are part of Java EE6.

I know there has been some work toward getting Daytrader 2.2 ready for release - but I do not know the status.
