## Description:

Apache Felix is a project aimed at implementing specifications from
the OSGi Alliance as well as implementing other supporting tools and
technologies aligned with OSGi technology.

## Issues:

 - There are no issues requiring board attention at this time.

## Activity:

 - Existing implementations have been improved/enhanced based on
   community feedback.
 - Finished IP clearance of the BAR file installer contribution from Intel

   and added code to svn (release pending).
 - Efforts to implement the upcoming OSGi R7 specifications still 
   on-going (mostly focusing on the framework atm).
 - Released 5 components (mostly bug fixes and minor improvments).

## Health report:

 - Overall the project is in good health (but not growing atm).
 - Questions on the user list are answered, development concerns are
   either discussed on the mailing list or directly in the JIRA issues.
 - The project as well as the OSGi community in general is still in the
   process of adapting to JPMS and its long term impact.
 - We need to focus on adding a new pmc member and attracting new
   committers (we started a discussion on private@ to see if we have 
   any current candidates). However, we had no issues voting on releases 
   and JIRA issues are generally addressed promptly.
