| ## Description: |
| Apache ServiceMix is a flexible, open-source integration container that |
| unifies the features and functionality of Apache ActiveMQ, Camel, CXF and |
| Karaf to provide a complete, enterprise-ready ESB powered by OSGi. |

| ## Project Activity: |
| |
| - During the last period we have released 3 sets of OSGi bundles and Specs |
| - Apache ServiceMix Specs (jaxb-api, jaxws-api, saaj-api) on January 08 2020 |
| - Apache ServiceMix Bundles 2019.12 on January 08 2020 |
| - Apache ServiceMix Bundles 2020.01 on February 03 2020 |
| - During the next period we are going to provide |
| - the next Bundles and Specs releases |
| - the ServiceMix 8.x assembly with updates to the new releases of |
| the dependency projects |
| |
| ## Community Health: |
| |
| Due to a low activity in the project and low interest to provide further |
| releases of ServiceMix Assembly we are currently discussing about the future |
| of the ServiceMix project. Our draft plan is to: |
| - move the Bundles and Specs to Apache Karaf or provide in Apache Karaf |
| a descriptor mechanism which lets us to avoid to provide a bundle for each |
| Java library |
| - provide the ServiceMix 8 assembly which is built on the newest releases |
| of Apache Karaf, Apache Camel and other dependency projects |
| - provide a documentation explaining how to "migrate" from ServiceMix |
| to Karaf "ecosystem". The purpose is to provide smooth path to ServiceMix users. |
| - maybe provide an Integration distribution of Apache Karaf |
| - provide in Apache Camel or Apache Karaf project a documentation about running |
| integration in the Karaf "ecosystem" |
| - move the ServiceMix project to attic |
