Hi Charlie,

We already have Jenkins and nightly builds. But I'm not sure a lot of people uses/tests the SNAPSHOTs.

Hi,
+1 for a short lifecycle.

I'm not totally for what I'll ask but it's an alternative solution:
What about continuous deployement?
A Jenkins build pipeline that will trigger Jira ticket resolution then
releasing Karaf if all tests pass?
I really don't know if it's a viable solution, but it would make the
thing :).

Best regards,

    There will always be another upstream fix to wait for, a short Karaf
    update cycle seems to be the best approach to avoiding extended
    delays.
