Quick straw poll: OSGi support
Downloading OSGi packages with dependency and version meta-data, using that
in the build, and creating packages that contain the right OSGi meta-data
and can be used for deployment and runtime.
I'm wondering if this is something we should put as a priority for the next
major release, 1.4:
+1 Yes, please, the sooner the better.
0 Don't care either way.
-1 No, we have better things to do.

+1 OSGi looks interesting.

Sun just likes to reinvent things, but if they're doing OSGi compatibility,
that just means a few more places where you could use OSGi bundles, and one
less "different model" to worry about.

Not sure if this was a tongue-in-cheek comment, but I'd personally go with
native OSGi support at first. I don't know how many years it will take
before a majority of Java installations are migrated to Java 7. If Sun's
module system is really compatible with OSGi, then we shouldn't have to
worry.

Let's not forget that Java has its own module system, which will appear in
JDK 7 (JEE 6). Sun does promise compatibility with OSGi:

+1 OSGi is becoming an buzzword :-)

+1 I see OSGi being adopted across all the major appservers.
