## Description:


  Apache DeltaSpike is  a suite of portable CDI (Contexts & Dependency
  Injection) extensions intended to make application development easier when
  working with CDI and Java EE.  Some of its key features include:

  - A core runtime that supports component configuration, type safe messaging
    and internationalization, and exception handling.
  - A suite of utilities to make programmatic bean lookup easier.
  - A plugin for Java SE to bootstrap both JBoss Weld and Apache OpenWebBeans
    outside of a container.
  - JSF integration, including backporting of JSF 2.2 features for Java EE 6.
  - JPA integration and transaction support.
  - A Data module, to create an easy to use repository pattern on top of JPA.
  - Quartz integration

  Testing support is also provided, to allow you to do low level unit testing of your CDI enabled projects.
  
## Issues:


   There are no issues requiring board attention at this time.
  
## Activity:

  
   Currently we preparing the upcoming release 1.8, which mainly consists of a reworked configuration API and bugfixes.
  
## Health report:


   The community and developers activity was less than average in the last quarter.

   This just means that DeltaSpike is quite stable and already covers many real-life usecases.

   The activity will likely be higher again if we preparing our code-base this year for Java 8 / Java EE8.
