1. V2.0 release status: Pam/Joe–

   v1.4.4 targeted for November

   - bug fixes

   - Also shifts fabric docker images from ubuntu to debian:buster-20190910-slim - smaller images, more secure

   - note - v2.0 shifts to alpine images - even smaller, even more secure

   v2.0.0-beta targeted for December, remaining items that we are trying to close down:

   - external chaincode documentation

   - external chaincode as a server

   - state database cache for improved performance

   - upgrade documentation

   - node sdk v2.0 refactoring - in master split fabric-client into fabric-base (for transactions) and fabric-admin (for v2.0 lifecycle support)

   - please go through Jira backlogs and help to highlight anything that needs to get in before v2.0

2. Chris Gabriel demo

3. The fabric-samples repository has moved over to use the combination of Github for code, and Azure pipelines for CI:

   fabric-sdk-java Move complete FABJ-486
