L.S.,

Originally, we were planning to release ServiceMix 4.3.0 with Camel
2.5 and we already released components and NMR to use that version.
However, with https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SMX4-652 we're
running into an issue with that version of Camel (cfr.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-3302).  One way to fix
this would be to redo the components release and add a hack as a
workaround for this issue.  We could do that today or tomorrow and get
the release process back on track that way.

However, the Camel 2.6.0 release is due to get cut anytime soon,
they're currently waiting on our pending bundles vote to move ahead.
I think it would be worth waiting another week and then restart the
release process using Camel 2.6.0 and CXF 2.3.1 instead of the current
versions.  That would allow us to pick up the latest versions of those
two important frameworks in ServiceMix as well as avoid the hack
around the issue in the components build.

If we go for option 2, I would like to suggest we're careful about
adding new stuff to the Components/NMR/Features build in the
meanwhile.  The first two have already been released a few weeks ago
without any problems, so if we only fix bugs and update the Camel and
CXF version, we can be a bit more confident in the upcoming new
release builds and votes.

The quiet period between now and the releases would be a great time to
start the documentation hackaton by the way ;)


Wdyt?
