----------------------------------------

That's something that we could plan for a 2.3 release after 3.0 is done maybe.

> While trying to make Karaf work with Felix 4.0.2, I wish there are a few small things there that would make the upgrade a lot easier.
> - Having the needed OSGi core classes in a different jar than karaf.jar (I had to remove them from there and added a file karaf-osgi-core-43.jar at the same path)
> - Have a property ${felix-version} at etc/config.properties with the Felix framework value
> Just for completeness, these are the extra things that I needed to make the upgrade (and I think would be ok for any user to do):
> - Comment the property org.osgi.framework.system.packages.extra (if it is left blank, then Felix fails to start)
> - Removed the current Felix and Equinox frameworks. Added Felix 4.0.2 following the same pattern as it was followed for Felix 3.0.9
> - Change etc/config.properties to reflect the updated versions/packages for the property org.osgi.framework.system.packages
> - Updated the classpath value at bin/admin
> With all these changes, everything else just works.
