Hi Benjamin,

If you follow the discussion on the dev mailing list, I think the=20
release plan is well defined.
More over on the website you have the dependency matrix.

We maintain two maintenance release branches:

1/ 2.3.x is "previous" maintenance release
2/ 3.0.x is "current" maintenance release
3/ 4.0.0 is future (where we do the refactoring, etc, it would not be=20
released before September).
4/ 2.x (2.4.x) is "transition" branch between 2.3.x and 3.0.x. Not sure=20
it would make much sense to release it now (I would encourage users to=20
jump from 2.3.x to 3.0.x). So no plan for now about a release.
That's why I didn't talk about 2.4 in my previous e-mail.

I will add a page on the website to add this plan:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-3060

I will do that in a couple of minutes.

Regards
JB
