- Gyrex is developed using an open, transparent, and inclusive process.

- Gyrex has been presented on demo camps, conferences and in print magazines.
- There were 3 active committers working on the 1.2 release.
- The release includes contributions from external contributors.
- Gyrex encourages Jetty committers to provide OSGi bundles as part of their releases.
- At ECE a possible integration approach has been discussed with Glyn and Chris from Virgo. Only little has happened on the implementation side, though. But integration with Virgo Nano seems to start gaining interest in the community as well.
