Re: Improvement request to felix OBR

[Guillaume Nodet <gn...@gmail.com>]

Replying to dev@ instead.

Speaking for myself, I don't think it should be a problem to include
such an improvement.
Given it's not incompatible, i'm all for it.  If there is any problem
in changing the org.osgi.service.obr package, we can always define our
own extended api for that, but given this package isn't really
standardized, i'd simply go ahead and rev it up.
