Info request about Karaf Runtime version 4.0.x

[Luca Paoloni <lu...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,
I just visited the web page https://karaf.apache.org/download and I
noticed *Karaf
Runtime* version 4.0.x (the one I use) has status "Not Active".
Thus, I would kindly ask you:
- what does it mean actually? End of life, end of support, both?
- when did this status become "Not Active"?


Thanks in advance.
Best regards.
Luca Paoloni

Hi Luca,

Actually, End Of Life or Support don’t exist from Apache perspective ;) Anyone can update/cut a new release on demand.

We use "Not Active" just to inform the users that our focus (daily jobs, updated, new features) is not on "non active" branches.

If you need a new 4.0.x release, it’s always possible to ask ;)

Regards
JB
