John Conlon commented on DIRMINA-27:
------------------------------------

Since the creation of a single project Mina appears to be shelved.  To move the OSGi effort forward, I would like to create a  OSGi bundle for wrapping the current Mina 1.0.0 release. 

Before I attach the pom.xml for the project called mina-integration-osgi
I have a few questions of the community.

Java 1.4?
My first intention was to do this for Java5, but do we also need an OSGi wrapping project for a java 1.4 of Mina 1.0.0? 

Wrapped Dependencies?
In the example I am showing below is for a Java5 release (no backport libs) 

Here are the dependencies that will be wrapped in the bundle:
               <dependency>

			<groupId>org.apache.mina</groupId>

			<artifactId>mina-core</artifactId>

			<version>${pom.version}</version>

		</dependency>

		<dependency>

			<groupId>org.apache.mina</groupId>

			<artifactId>mina-java5</artifactId>

			<version>${pom.version}</version>

		</dependency>

		<dependency>

			<groupId>org.apache.mina</groupId>

			<artifactId>mina-filter-ssl</artifactId>

			<version>${pom.version}</version>

		</dependency>

		<dependency>

		    <!--This dependency is using several transients 

		        net.gleamynode.netty2.mina-->

			<groupId>org.apache.mina</groupId>

			<artifactId>mina-filter-codec-netty</artifactId>

			<version>${pom.version}</version>

		</dependency>

		<dependency>

			<groupId>org.apache.mina</groupId>

			<artifactId>mina-filter-compression</artifactId>

			<version>${pom.version}</version>

		</dependency>

		<dependency>

			<groupId>org.apache.mina</groupId>

			<artifactId>mina-integration-spring</artifactId>

			<version>${pom.version}</version>

			<exclusions>

                           <exclusion>

                              <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>

			       <artifactId>spring-beans</artifactId>

                           </exclusion>

                           <exclusion>

                              <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>

			      <artifactId>spring-core</artifactId>

                           </exclusion>

                         </exclusions>

		 </dependency>

		<dependency>

			<groupId>org.apache.mina</groupId>

			<artifactId>mina-integration-jmx</artifactId>

			<version>${pom.version}</version>

		</dependency>
Are these dependencies all that need to be delievered in the bundle to meet Mina 1.0.0 functionality?

Provided Dependencies?
At OSGi runtime the two additional dependencies will be provided by other OSGi common use bundles  wrapping:
<dependency>

			<groupId>commons-collections</groupId>

			<artifactId>commons-collections</artifactId>

			<version>3.0</version>

			<scope>provided</scope>

</dependency>

<dependency>

	                <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>

	               <artifactId>slf4j-simple</artifactId>

	                <version>1.0</version>

	               <scope>provided</scope>

</dependency>
Are there any more dependencies that I am missing?

Ignored Dependencies?
The OSGi Maven Plugin provides an analysis mode so one can tell library depenency usage. When bundleing Mina 1.0.0 the analysis is showing an unusual circular dependency on a no longer used mina library.

[INFO] org.apache.mina.protocol used by;
          +-- net.gleamynode.netty2.mina

[INFO] org.apache.commons.logging used by;
          +-- net.gleamynode.netty2

[INFO] net.gleamynode.netty2 used by;
          |-- net.gleamynode.netty2.mina
          +-- org.apache.mina.filter.codec.netty

I have a hunch that I can simple ignore the org.apache.mina.protocol library.
Is there any reason I can't?

Pending imput I expect to attach the project pom tomorrow.
