 Apache Aries delivers a set of pluggable Java components enabling an enterprise OSGi application programming model.
 
 ##Releases
 
-The following bug fix releases:
+Several release vote threads during the last three months saw the release of 88 bundles at version 1.0. These can be found from the [downloads link on the Aries home page](http://aries.apache.org/downloads/currentrelease.html). Subsequently, the following micro version update bundles have been released:
 
-* Apache Aries Proxy 0.3.1
+* Apache Aries Blueprint Core 1.0.1
+* Apache Aries JMX Core 1.0.1
+* Apache Aries Transaction Manager 1.0.1
+* Apache Aries JPA Container Managed Contexts 1.0.1
 
-* Apache Aries Proxy 0.4.1
+In addition, these new bundles were released.
 
-As indicated in the last report, bundles and packages are now being  brought up from 0.x to 1.0 to better reflect the stability and level of confidence we have in them. This will also bring our versioning policy inline with that described in the OSGi Alliance semantic versioning whitepaper.
-The 1.0 releases have started. We have approx 118 OSGi bundles so these are being done in logical phases. These have completed:
+* Apache Aries JMS Pool 1.0.0
+* Apache Aries Transaction Enlisting JDBC Datasource 1.0.0
 
-* Apache Aries Test Support 1.0.0
-* Apache Aries JNDI API 1.0.0
-* Apache Aries JMX API 1.0.0
-* Apache Aries JPA Container API 1.0.0
-* Apache Aries Quiesce API 1.0.0
-
-In addition there has been significant activity in the Aries Subsystems module which will be an implementation of the OSGi Subsystem Service Specification.
+Many thanks to the release managers for their persistence in getting these important releases out.

+Jeremias Maerki has proposed, and posted a patch for, an addition to the spi-fly module called SPI Catcher. Its objective is along the lines of the OSGi Connect work in the OSGi Alliance to make it easier to get started with OSGi dynamic services technology. The SPI Catch approach is complementary by introducing OSGi APIs much later, if at all, ensuring "runnability totally outside of OSGi" is preserved.

+No new committers since the last report. The user/dev lists and JIRAs have had some varied discussions across the Aries modules.
