To make Tapestry work on top of OSGi would be a killer feature. Currently
there is
a lot of activity related to OSGi to use OSGi on the server side, especialy
for
Web Development. From my point of view OSGi and Tapestry are similar in the
spirit they want ot achieve: strong component modularizaton and highly
dynamic
environment.

There is also the "marketing" point. Tapestry 5 would be the first
webframework
with native OSGi support.
