Preparing for Apache Karaf 2.2.8

The eighth maintenance release of the Apache Karaf 2.2.x branch will be soon entering the planning phase, as such I'm preparing for the release management role.

To prepare I've selected a bottle of Marques de Casa Concha Pinot Noir 2010 to decant while listening to some Metric albums.

Current high lights of this patch include updates to Pax Web 1.0.11, Pax-Logging 1.6.7, and Jansi 1.9. A complete change log will be created for the Release Candidate once the community is ready to put it to vote.

The wine will of course only be sampled after being gave proper time to breath in its container, after the first release candidate has be up loaded for voting (see our release guide for more details on our process).

Unfortunately I can't share the wine with you, but I can share a few links to some Metric videos. I'm looking forward to starting the 2.2.8 release process soon.



I'll be posting updates to our Twitter stream (#karaf) and on our IRC channel (irc.codehaus.org #karaf).
