That's a fair comment.

However, we can still maintain our feature model, not following the specification.

I didn't know about the OSGi alliance inside... if it's not an open
source organization and community not involved, I understand your fear.

Thanks for your explanation ;)

Because from an OSGi pov, it's not really possible to involve the Karaf
community, so if the community is not fully involved, I don't see how it
could be beneficial to it.   The OSGi Alliance is not an open source
organization, so things are developed internally amongst the OSGi members,
and you have to be an OSGi member in order to have any saying (we'll you
can always raise issues but you have no saying, really).

My fear is that we'll end up with a trimmed down version of what Karaf
actually supports (hopefully not without incompatible things) and that we
will be pressured to support it, and it may lead us to directions we may
have not pursued otherwise.

For example, blueprint is under specified and we have to work harder in
order to add things that are outside the standard.  Though, given the OSGi
Alliance is somewhat abandoning blueprint, I think my next move on this
area will be to get rid of the standard and just use an aries specific
schema instead (enhanced, but without having to use a difference schema for
the extensions).

But I hope I'll be proved wrong.

Hi Guillaume,

Can you explain why you think it's not a good thing for Karaf ?

Re: FYI, OSGi Features RFP

Posted by Grzegorz Grzybek <gr...@gmail.com>.
Hello

And how about Eclipse features? From certain perspective, these are also
higher-level concept than standard bundles, but probably not that
runtime-specific (I mean there's no "feature service" you can obtain and
for example list installed features).

I'm also a bit worried about forcing Karaf to implement post-factum
standard...

Re: FYI, OSGi Features RFP

I think the RFP is based on the prototype of the sling feature model.

See:
https://github.com/apache/sling-whiteboard/tree/master/featuremodel

As far as I know this is indeed inspired by karaf. I am not sure how
compatible it is at the moment. I will try to participate in the
standardisation effort and try to achieve some compatibility with karaf.

I was not in any way aware of this RFP and I'm not part of the process, but
this looks really inspired from Karaf Features at least.
The author, David B. is a Karaf committer, so he may be able to comment on
what he has in mind.

Having said that, I'm not so sure it's a good thing for Karaf, but we'll
see. Hopefully things will go well this time, but I've already seen several
things go wrong at the OSGi EEG...
