Apache Karaf provides higher level features and services
specifically designed for creating OSGi-based servers.
Community
=========
The talk "Apache Karaf in real life" has been provided by a committer
during the latest ApacheCon NA 2014.
Talks have been submitted by different committers for the next ApacheCon
Europe 2014.
We can note a couple of books available (or in preparation) about Karaf
and its sub-projects (Cellar, Cave, EIK).
There have been three articles in the german JavaMagazin about Karaf 3.0
in April, Mai and June.
We started to work on the next Karaf 4.0.0 branch including a lot of new
features and improvements.
