 Apache Aries delivers a set of pluggable Java components enabling an enterprise OSGi application programming model.
 
-##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:
+* The SPI Fly component now fully implements the ServiceLoader Mediator
+Specification 1.0 from the OSGi Enterprise R5 spec (chapter 133). It is the
+Reference Implementation of this spec and passes all the OSGi TCK tests for
+it.
+* The JMX component in Aries now fully implements OSGi/JMX 1.1 from the
+OSGi Enterprise R5 spec (chapter 124). As of this version it is the
+Reference Implementation of this spec and passes all the OSGi TCK tests for
+JMX.
+
+    Both components are available in SNAPSHOT versions in the Aries code base.
+They are waiting to be released.
+
+* The Semantic Versioning maven plugin component is now being used in our own builds - for modules that have 1.0 or
+above releases. For those modules, the bytecode output to the target directory will be checked for semantic changes
+since the last release. If the semantic version is incorrect, the build 
+will fail.
 
-* 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 Karaf 2.3.0 - one of our significant consumers - has moved up to include Apache Aries 1.0.0 releases.
 
-In addition, these new bundles were released.
 
-* Apache Aries JMS Pool 1.0.0
-* Apache Aries Transaction Enlisting JDBC Datasource 1.0.0

 ##Community update
 
-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.
