Subject: [Report] Apache River - Draft

Hi River folks,
Draft board report for November, postponed until December.
Regards,
Peter.
<===========================================================>
## Description:
- Apache River provides a platform for dynamic discovery and lookup
search of network services. Services may be implemented in a number of
languages, while clients are required to be jvm based, to allow proxy jvm
byte code to be provisioned dynamically.
## Issues:
No significant issues requiring board attention at this time.
## Activity:
Minimal activity at present.
- Planned relase map:
Release roadmap:
River 3.0.1 - thread leak fix
River 3.1 - Modular build restructure (& binary release)
River 3.2 - Input validation 4 Serialization, delayed unmarshalling&
safe ServiceRegistrar lookup service.
River 3.3 - OSGi support
## Health report:
- Minimal activity at present on dev.
- No recent commit activity, but there are plans for more work in near
future.
- Future Direction:
* Target IOT space with support for OSGi and IPv6 (security fixes
required prior to announcement)
* Input validation for java deserialization - prevents DOS and
Gadget attacks.
* IPv6 Multicast Service Discovery (River currently only support
IPv4 multicast discovery).
* Delayed unmarshalling for Service Lookup and Discovery (includes
SafeServiceRegistrar mentioned in release roadmap), so
authentication can occur prior to downloading service proxy's,
this addresses a long standing security issue with service lookup
while significantly improving performance under some use cases.
* Security fixes for SSL endpoints, updated to TLS v1.2 with removal
of support for insecure cyphers.
* Maven build to replace existing ant built that uses
classdepandjar, a bytecode dependency analysis build tool.
