why aren't we using SCR annotations?

[Justin Edelson <ju...@justinedelson.com>]

This seems to be an unwritten rule, but I'm not clear why.

Just an additional comment, it is possible to use annotations and
javadoc tags together in a bundle - but not inside a component.

No it is not :)

I'm already using the annotations in some sling bundles (eventing and
jsp). I guess this has just historical reasons, we started with the
javadoc tags and therefore simply are used to it.

I think we should use the annotations for new stuff; and maybe we could
convert some projects during the development if it makes sense (it made
sense for the stuff I was working on). But we shouldn't simply batch
convert all modules now.

As Carsten says, that's just for historical reasons, as the bulk of
our code was written before SCR annotations were available.
