Hi all, I've just merged the Karaf 4.2.7 PR. I did quite a lot of testing on JDK 8 with it and it looked good, so I decided to merge it first because there are other PRs that also need to be merged and this change should happen first.
Let me know if you run into any issues, the idea is to fix them early. I'll merge the ES 7 PR as soon as the work is completed on it, because again here the idea is to merge everything early. Then I'll probably merged the other PRs we have, including the Groovy Actions because no red flags were raised. The only one I might not merge is the security update one as JB has already updated Jackson to a version that includes the CVE changes and we currently can't go higher because there is a problem in the xstream library that is not working properly (JB is working on this). Big thanks to JB for landing this. I will also look at documenting the Kafka PR as soon as possible, as it is also a very interesting contribution that has been on standby for way too long. As you can see a lot of things are happening on the project, and we are going to have a great 1.5.0 release ! Regards, Serge...
