## Community Health:
We had a discussion on the dev mailing list to "move" ServiceMix (main
distribution) in Apache Karaf as karaf-integration distribution. It has been
accepted and the Karaf community will work on it and provide this
distribution. Once done, we will announce this distribution on ServiceMix
mailing lists and website. That's the first step of the "move" to Apache
Karaf. The second step will the ServiceMix Bundles using the new "bundle"
handler/deployer in development at Karaf.

ServiceMix is still maintained, waiting for the "move" to Karaf.
Our main focus is on specs and bundles (the runtime is really on Karaf
side for now).
We plan to release SMX 8.0.0 as "last" version before Karaf move.
We will move forward on Karaf "move" on or Q2/Q3 2023.
We will cut a new updated release, just as Karaf assembly soon.

 - Apache ServiceMix Bundles 2020.05 on June 08 2020
- During the next period we are going to provide
 - the next Bundles and Specs releases

## Community Health:
- During the last period the activity of the community (mailing lists, JIRA,
 releases) has been slower than during the last period.
- As stated in the previous report, due to low interest to provide further
 releases of ServiceMix Assembly we are preparing the project to move it to
 Attic:
 - We are going to provide the ServiceMix user a smooth path to migrate to
   Karaf ecosystem by writing an migration guide and a documentation about
   running integration in the vanilla Karaf.
 - We are going to move the Bundles and Specs to Apache Karaf or provide
   there another mechanism to consume Java libraries as OSGi bundles. Until we
   achieve this we are going to provide next releases for the required bundles
   and specs.

## 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 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

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.

Issues
======

There are no outstanding issues requiring board attention.

Activity
========

The project focus of Apache ServiceMix is the assembly of the integration
container, the actual functionality is being maintained in related projects
like Apache Karaf, Apache CXF, Apache Camel and Apache ActiveMQ.

- We have released 5 sets of OSGi bundles.
- The work on ServiceMix Assembly was outstanding for a longer time. There was
  a lot of stuff implemented in the main components of the Assembly (Apache

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.

Issues
======

There are no outstanding issues requiring board attention.

Activity
========

The project focus of Apache ServiceMix is the assembly of the integration
container, the actual functionality is being maintained in related projects
like Apache Karaf, Apache CXF, Apache Camel and Apache ActiveMQ.

- We have released 2 sets of OSGi bundles and the next set is on vote.
- We have migrated our repositories to gitbox.
- The work on ServiceMix Assembly and documentation was outstanding last
  months. I'd like to start discussion in the community about the next steps
  to provide a new assembly (probably new ServiceMix 8.x line), how can we
  focus more on cloud capabilities and how can we make the community more
  attractive for new people.

- We have prepared 2 releases of Apache ServiceMix: maintenance release 6.1.4
 and next development release 7.0.1. We don't expect too much activity on
 ServceMix 6 and we plan to transit in into EOL soon. In the new period we are
 going to focus on the further development, stability and maintenance of
 ServiceMix 7. We are working on new releases of ServiceMix 7 upgraded to the
 new dependency versions, especially Apache Karaf 4.1.x and new Apache Camel
 versions.
- We have also released 2 sets of OSGi bundles and a new release of ServiceMix
 Specs. We are currently working on new Bundles and Specs releases.
- Thanks to a contribution we did a big step in documentation improvement. The
 documentation has been migrated into Asciidoc format and updated with the
 actual state of ServiceMix. It should be integrated soon in our website.
- We are going to make a small refactoring of ServiceMix features to give them
 a separate lifecycle (as ServiceMix Features) and provide better modularity
 and maintainability of ServiceMix.
- Jean-Baptiste Onofré has submitted a new feature proposal. The new feature
 should extend ServiceMix with ability to manage APIs. We are going to accept
 the initial contribution and work on the new feature to provide it in one of
 the next releases.

new period we are going to focus on the further development, stability and
maintenance of ServiceMix 7.

We have also released the version 5.6.3, which was the last scheduled version
of ServiceMix 5, which has been transited to EOL.

We're not expecting too much dependency updates to become available for the
6.1.x, which is currently the only active branch of ServiceMix 6, but we do
plan to keep our release schedule going with the 6.1.x releases.

During the past period we have also released 4 sets of OSGi bundles and a new
release of Depends Maven Plugin.

We plan to keep a steady release schedule and keep up with new fix releases of

transiting it in 'end of life' state soon.

We plan to focus on ServiceMix 6 and ServiceMix 7 instead, to provide users with
latest and greatest technology and upgrades of Apache Karaf, ActiveMQ, Camel and
CXF versions. We plan to release new versions of ServiceMix 6 next weeks.

We are working on the new ServiceMix 7.0.0.M2 which should be released next days.

We have focused on providing users with latest and greatest technology and
worked on upgrade of Apache Karaf, ActiveMQ, Camel and CXF versions.

During the last period the last maintenance version 5.4.3 has been released.
We have decided to stop further development on the branch 5.4.x. We have also
released the stable releases 5.5.2, 5.5.3 and 6.0.2 and the new release 5.6.0
from the development branch. During this period 4 sets of OSGi bundles and new
Specs has been released too.

We have focused on the development of ServiceMix 7 and released the first
preview of 7.0.0 which is based on Karaf 4.0.0 and includes numerous new
features. We are working now towards a 7.0.0 release. We are fixing first
issues reported by users for the preview release. In the new period we are
going to focus on the further development and stability of ServiceMix 7 to be
able to provide the community the first stable release.

We do plan to keep our release schedule going with the 5.5.x, 5.6.x, 6.0.x and
6.1.x releases. We plan to keep a steady release schedule and keep up with new
fix releases of our dependency projects.

There are no outstanding issues requiring board attention.

Project Status

We have lost a lot of our momentum now that major parts of the functionality
are being maintained in related projects like Apache Karaf and Apache Camel.

In the past month, we've had a discussion on the users@ mailing list about
the status of the project and whether or not ServiceMix is offering any added
value over directly using the related projects. We did get quite a bit of
positive feedback and as a result, we now have more activity again in JIRA
as well as on the mailing lists.

out, in which we will drop support for a few features considered obsolete to
ensure it's easier to keep a steady release schedule in the future.

some of our assemblies are larger than that, we pinged infra@ to figure
out how to get that addressed for doing these next 2 releases.

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 Status

While we continue to have an active community, we also have lost
some of our momentum now that major parts of the functionality are being
maintained in related projects like Apache Karaf and Apache Camel.

There are no outstanding issues requiring board attention.

Community

No changes since last report.

Community Objectives

Since our last board report, we have completed the migration to svnpubsub
for our website and are nearly ready for migrating our distribution area.

Documentation and website remain important working topics.

When releasing OSGi bundles, we are repackaging and wrapping existing
artifacts from other projects.  To ensure these changes get donated/
communicated back to the original community, we now require backlinks
to the corresponding issue in the other project.

Project Status:
While we continue to have an active community with good participation from
users on mailing lists, IRC, and issue reporting in JIRA, we also have lost
some of our momentum now that major parts of the functionality are being
maintained in related projects like Apache Karaf and Apache Camel.

Community:
No changes since last report.

Community Objectives:
Our current objective is to work on a ServiceMix 4.5.0 release - with all
dependency project releases done, we can start working on getting this out.

Documentation and website remain important working topics - we are looking
into the mandatory migration to svnpubsub at the moment.

When releasing OSGi bundles, we are repackaging and wrapping existing
artifacts from other projects.  To ensure these changes get donated/

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


Project Status

While we continue to have an active community with good participation from

some of our momentum now that major parts of the functionality are being

With the community objectives mentioned below, we want to ensure a new and
better focus for the Apache ServiceMix project.


Community

No changes since last report.


Community Objectives

One of the things we set out to do was to improve our release schedule in
order to gain some momentum again.  With the initial 4.4.0 release out in
December last year, we managed to get two fix releases out since then.
Our current objective is to work on a ServiceMix 4.5.0 release and then
start doing fix releases on that version as well to ensure we keep our
steady delivery schedule.

We keep on working on the documentation and website to ensure both new and
existing users are finding their way around the project more easily.  One
of the challenges there was the mix of ServiceMix 3.x and ServiceMix 4.x
related content.

Therefore, we recently had a discussion on the mailing list to put the focus
on ServiceMix 4.x entirely and starting to communicate to our user base that
we are no longer planning lots of new activity on the ServiceMix 3.x
branches.  We came up with a plan to do 2 more 3.4.x fix releases until the
end of 2012, but no new minor releases are being planned at the moment.

* Jonathan Anstey has been voted in as a new committer.


Community Objectives
====================

Our current objective is to release ServiceMix 4.4.0: we improved the project
packaging to better meet common use cases and we also optimized our project
structure to allow for more frequent releases of ServiceMix 4.x in the future.
We keep on working on the documentation and website to ensure both new and
existing users are finding their way around the project more easily.

These changes will help us regain the momentum we need to work towards our
second community objective - our next major release, Apache ServiceMix 5.x,
planned for next year, will be where we start adding the necessary additional
features to ensure that the project keeps adding value on top of what Apache
Karaf and Apache Camel are offering.

Note that the report was submitted late.

16 Dec 2009 [Guillaume Nodet / Roy]

The following releases have been performed:
* servicemix-pom 4
* servicemix-utils 1.2.0
* servicemix-specs 1.40
* several osgi bundles from third party
 libraries (quartz 1.6.6, juel 2.1.1, ...)
The POMs include mainly cleanup and dependencies upgrade
in preparation for the next components release iteration.

The SMX 4.1 release is on the road, including new Felix
Karaf and components release.

No changes in the committers or pmc members list.

Greg asked about third-party licenses, Brett indicated that they have approval from legal (http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-20).

23 Sep 2009 [Guillaume Nodet / Doug]

A new version of servicemix-exec component is ready to be release. A vote
will be proposed soon. This new version supports WSDL publishing with JAXB
data binding. The WSDL support for most of components is on the road. Using
WSDL, the component can be "self documented" and support multi-action.

A new component has begun: the RMI component. This binding component works
in provider or consumer mode. In consumer mode, it binds a new entry in the
ServiceMix registry and transforms the RMI invocation into a XML request
(data binding). In provider mode, it get the RMI stub on the remote
interface and call an external RMI endpoint. In the same way, it uses data
binding to transform the RMI invocation request/response into a XML
compliant message (sent into the NMR).

The LDAP component WSDL support has begun.

Work started switching to Apache Felix Karaf as the OSGi container/runtime
and will probably be part of 4.1.0 release which is scheduled for approx.
September/October 2009.

A refactoring of the ServiceMix documentation has begun using DocBook to
generate a manual page. For now, the documentation is in sandbox. The
purpose is to provide a multi-format enterprise documentation and promote it
with the new website.

Eoghan Glynn has been voted in as a new ServiceMix committer.

17 Jun 2009 [Guillaume Nodet / Henning]

We have release ServiceMix 4.0.0, which includes a bunch of subprojects
released:
 * a set of 21 osgi bundles for third party dependencies
 * ServiceMix Kernel 1.1.0
 * ServiceMix NMR 1.0.0
 * JBI components 2009.01 release
 * 4 maven plugins (depends-maven-plugin 1.1, features-maven-plugin 1.1,
      jbi-maven-plugin 4.1, xfire-maven-plugin 4.1)
 * ServiceMix Utils 1.1.0
 * ServiceMix 4.0.0
Following our JBI component roadmap, a new component has been released:
 * ServiceMix Exec

Apache ServiceMix Kernel has been donated as Karaf to the Apache Felix TLP
and a few committers have been granted commit rights to Felix to continue
the work on Karaf.

We are mentoring a Google Summer of Code project: Marcin Wilkos is building
a web-based management console for ServiceMix 4 on top of the Felix Web
Console. At this time, most of his work is targeted at the new Apache Felix
Karaf project.

From an infrastructure perspective, we started using Hudson for doing CI
builds. The Apache infra team has also set up the Nexus instance at
http://repository.apache.org so we can now use if for staging our releases
under vote.

There has been no new committers / pmc members this quarter.

18 Mar 2009 [Guillaume Nodet / Bill]

Development continues towards a release of ServiceMix 4, while we also
keep on working on improving and stabilizing ServiceMix 3.  The
upcoming release already gets a fair share of the attention on the
mailing, with early adopters helping out by testing, raising issues
and suggesting improvements.


Preparing for our next major release, we have released:
* ServiceMix Specs 1.2.0
* a set of 13 osgi bundles for 3thd party dependencies

We have added 4 new committers to the project:
- Ulhas Bhole
- Jamie Goodyear

- Edell Nolan
- Jean-Baptiste Onofre

The last board report already mentioned the addition of Gianfranco
Boccalon and Andrea Zopello, whose ICLAs have also been processed in

17 Dec 2008 [Guillaume Nodet / Justin]

Since September report, ServiceMix has released the following things:
* ServiceMix Kernel 1.0.0
* ServiceMix NMR 1.0.0-m2
* ServiceMix NMR 1.0.0-m3
* ServiceMix Specs 1.1.0
* ServiceMix Specs 1.1.1
* ServiceMix maven plugins (jbi-maven-plugin 4.0, res-maven-plugin 4.0, xfire-maven-plugin 4.0 ,features-maven-plugin 1.0 ,checksum-maven-plugin 1.0)
* several osgi bundles for 3thd party dependencies
* JBI components in version 2008.01
* ServiceMix 3.2.3
* ServiceMix 3.3
* new JBI binding component for SNMP protocol (servicemix-snmp)

A number of committers have been voted:
* Gianfranco Boccalon
* Andrea Zopello
Their ICLAs have not been processed yet.

We have voted one more committer but his employer seems to have concerns
so the invitation will remain open.

The PMC contains a new member:
* Lars Heinemann

SSHD, a Java based SSH server / client library originally developed
for ServiceMix Kernel / Geronimo GShell integration as the default
remoting protocol has been accepted as a new Apache Mina subproject.

The board is pleased with the cooperation and collaboration that this project demonstrated with other TLPs in the foundation.

17 Sep 2008 [Guillaume Nodet / Jim]

 Since the last report, ServiceMix has released the following things:
 * First set of OSGi bundles
 * ServiceMix Specs 1.0.1
 * ServiceMix 3.2.2
 * ServiceMix Kernel 1.0.0-rc2
 * Second set of OSGi bundles
 * ServiceMix Specs 1.1.0
 * depends-maven-plugin 1.0 (a maven plugin used in some of our projects)
 * ServiceMix Kernel 1.0.0 is currently under vote

The ServiceMix Specs project contains OSGi enhanced versions of some Java
EE specifiations.  Those are mostly repackaged versions of ASL licensed
specs, but it also contains full code of some specifications too (the JBI
specification and the JAXB specifications that were needed to be able to
enhance them for OSGi).  We've discussed moving at least those JAXB specs
to Geronimo, but no work has been done on that so far.

The ServiceMix Bundles project contains jars repackaged as OSGi bundles
which are used in ServiceMix 4.x.

The JBI components from ServiceMix 3.x have now been extracted into their
own svn subtree to be able to release them independently and share them
between ServiceMix 3.x and 4.x.  The short term goal is to release those
as well as ServiceMix 3.3 and new milestones of ServiceMix 4.0 in the
coming weeks.

The ServiceMix zone has been set up and we will work on putting live demos
of ServiceMix when time permits.

25 Jun 2008 [Guillaume Nodet / Geir]

In the three months that passed since our latest board report, there
were no changes to the committer base or PMC.  With the existing team
however, we had a lot of activity on ServiceMix 4:

- the release of ServiceMix NMR 1.0-m1 in the second half or March

- the release of ServiceMix Kernel 1.0-m3 in May

- the release of ServiceMix Kernel 1.0.0-rc1 in June
 ServiceMix Kernel by now provides a stable OSGi runtime with a very
 nice feature set.  The recent release of ServiceMix Kernel 1.0.0-rc1
 is the first step in getting an official ServiceMix Kernel 1.0 out.

 Meanwhile, development also continues on ServiceMix 3.

- ServiceMix 3.2.2 (a bugfix release) will be released as soon as new
 versions of some core components are available

- for the next major release (ServiceMix 3.3), we already have some
 new features done as well (e.g. a JBI compliant mail component,
 scripting service engine with JSR-223 support)

- we are planning to split the JBI components into a separate
 subproject, which should make it easier to re-use them in ServiceMix 4
 (or other JBI-compliant products).  This work has already started and
 one of the main driver was to be able to have shorter release cycles
 (due to the great number of dependant projects, it is very difficult
 to find a time window where we don't depend on snapshots).

Most concerns from the previous board report have been dealt with;
work on creation of the ServiceMix zone is still ongoing (INFRA-1564).

19 Mar 2008 [Guillaume Nodet / Henning]

Community

* Lars Heinemann

Releases
========
* Apache ServiceMix Kernel 1.0-m2

  as some JBI components include libraries
  subject to such requirements
* we have requested a solaris zone to root
* discussions around importing a JBoss
  plugin seem to have reached an agreement
  that it should be doable
* we have also raised some questions about
  repackaging some third party libraries
  not under ASL 2.0 license to add OSGi
  manifest entries and redistribute them

19 Dec 2007 [Guillaume Nodet / Geir]

This report for December is the third monthly report since ServiceMix
graduation.

ServiceMix resources have been completely moved out of the Incubator area.
We have reorganized the svn subtree so that both ServiceMix 3.x and 4.x
versions can coexist.

We have released ServiceMix 3.2.1 on December the 2nd. Work is continuing
on ServiceMix 4.0: a subproject Apache ServiceMix Runtime has been
extracted and should be released this month.

On the community side, Freeman Fang has accepted the proposed PMC
membership (the vote was being held at the time the previous board
meeting took place).  Kristian's account has been created.

Approved by General Consent.

14 Nov 2007 [Guillaume Nodet / Henri]

This report for November is the second report since ServiceMix
graduation.

ServiceMix  resources  have not been completely moved yet.  The web site
has moved to its final location (http://servicemix.apache.org) but the
mailing lists and svn have not been touched.

We have released ServiceMix 3.2 on November 7th. Work is continuing on
ServiceMix 4.0 and we aim for a milestone release before the end of the
year.

A new PMC member has just been voted in.

Approved by General Consent.

17 Oct 2007 [Guillaume Nodet / Geir]

This report for October is the first report since ServiceMix graduation
last month.

ServiceMix resources have not been moved yet. Hopefully everything will
be sorted out soon.

We have released our first non incubating version of ServiceMix, the
3.1.2  version, on September 25th.  We are currently preparing for our
next big release, ServiceMix 3.2, which is planned for the end of
October. Work has started on the next major version 4.0 which will be
based on OSGi.

On the community side, both developer and user community are very
active. A new committer has been voted in.

Jim tasked with getting the word out (presumably via Marvin) that project reports are expected to be in text/plain format.

Approved as revised by General Consent.

The ServiceMix community has voted for graduation and the Incubator PMC has
voted to accept ServiceMix graduation as a TLP (Guillaume Nodet has been
voted as the PMC chair).

ServiceMix 3.1.1 has been released on 04/Jul/07, and we are planning a 3.1.2
after graduation has completed. A 3.2 release is also planned for end of
september / early october.

Discussion on the next major version 4.0 have begin on the mailing list.

Thomas Termin and Gert Vanthienen has joined the PPMC.

ServiceMix is an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) built on Java Business
Integration (JBI, aka JSR 208).  The project has been in incubation since
18.11.2005.

Since the last board report, three new committers have been voted in (Alex
Boisvert, Thomas Termin and Gert Vanthienen), which brings the total number
of committers to 30.

The team started the process to release a bug fix version of ServiceMix
(3.1.1).  In the meanwhile, development efforts continue towards a new major
release, with new features, version updates of core libraries (ActiveMQ,
XBean, Geronimo, ...) and improved ease of development for the end users
(Maven Archetypes).  Also, additional quality assurance tools are being
integrated into the project build cycle to improve the existing codebase.

Since there appear to be no more outstanding issues for graduation, the
discussion about this has recently started on the mailing lists.  The
majority of the community agrees that a top-level project would be more
suitable, considering the size of the project and the community supporting
it.

''iPMC Comments:''
 * jukka: +1 to graduation plans

iPMC Reviewers: brett, dims, jerenkrantz, yoavs, jukka, twl, noel

ServiceMix is an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) built on Java Business
Integration (JBI, aka JSR 208).

Since our last report, ServiceMix has voted in one new committer, Eric
Dofonsou, but his account has not been created yet as his CLA has not been
recorded yet.
The user community is very active and we have lots of contributors
submitting patches which is a good sign that the developer community will
continue to grow with a good heterogeneity.

The 3.1 released has just been voted by the incubator PMC and has been
officially released on Feb. 12.  This release is an important release and
includes lots of new features, improvements and bug fixes. Roadmap for next
releases has not been discussed yet.

The confluence WIKI which is used for the main site was previously hosted at
goopen.org.  It has been moved to the ASF so that all the resources are now
hosted at the ASF.

iPMC questions / comments:
* JE: Mentors should inform Eric regarding email transmission of CLAs
 instead of faxes.
* jukka: Sounds good, any missing steps before graduation?

16 Aug 2006

ServiceMix has released its second milestone at the end of June.
Another release is planned for end of August / beginning September.
The main plan for the comming months is to release a 3.0 final, by
improving test/samples/documentation.

The TCK for JBI has been given to committers that have asked for it
and have signed the NDA.  While we are waiting for a specific mailing
list / svn tree to put TCK specific resources, some work has been
started.

Lots of people seem interesting in contributing to ServiceMix and/or
becoming commiters, so there is a good chance that the developer
community will grew in the following months.  We are in the process of
accepting several code contributions: an Eclipse plugin for ServiceMix
which would complete the tooling based on Maven 2, and some new JBI
components.

15 Mar 2006

We are in the process of preparing a milestone release.

18 Jan 2006

The full status of incubation is at
http://wiki.apache.org/geronimo/ServiceMix_Incubation. In summary we're most
of the way through incubation now, things have been progressing very well;
the code is clean and using mostly Apache-compliant libraries (more on that
below), it has the correct copyright notices and is in the
org.apache.servicemix namespace and is generally working well now. We've got
the software grants sorted and most developers have their CLAs on file and
accounts created (we've a few more to do once we know the CLAs are on file).

Our main outstanding issues are now

creating the website at Apache (should be done in the next week or so)

getting a definitive answer on if we are allowed to use CDDL software such
as the JAXB2 Reference Implementation. We have so far not seen a definitive
answer anywhere and so are continuing to use it unless we are given
guidenence that we should not.
