The individual modules can replace the all-like bundles quite nicely, 
I've tried with one of the Talend demos. The jaxrs bundle might be of 
help for non-Karaf users during the migration, so if you are OK with 
keeping it for now then lets keep it :-).
The indiv modules approach work great too and would be more preferred in 
time as well, we can drop then the jaxrs bundle in 2.7.0 for ex

Thanks, Sergey
