+- The [Jackalope FS](https://github.com/jackalope/jackalope-fs) is now an

+  [phpcr-api-tests](https://github.com/phpcr/phpcr-api-tests).
+- [@danrot90](https://github.com/danrot) has confirmed that he will be implementing
+  versioning on the [Jackalope Doctrine-Dbal](https://github.com/jackalope/jackalope-doctrine-dbal)
