Just checking, anything I need to do for this?  It's not clear to me from the review page what the current status is...

> This issue is created as part of the process outlined in the "Contributing Source Code" Felix page as suggested by Richard Hall in issue FELIX-538[1].  The source code attached[6] to this issue is an implementation of the OSGi HTTP Service specification version 1.2.  The code is based on Richard's original server which is also referenced in FELIX-538, and the remaining code was developed by me, with the exception of a few classes which were adapted from existing Felix sources[2].
> Design constraints for this project were backwards compatibility, simplicity, and size.  The code base consists of 23 Java files in 3 packages.  The source is divided into "osgi", "server", and "servlet" packages according to the primary purpose of the class, and interfaces are utilized to keep the three domains fairly isolated[3].  The minimal compiled jar which does not include the servlet API or OSGi API currently is 41Kb, and the dependency-free jar with all necessary APIs is 125Kb.  An Ant script is provided that will build the jars and a CI server is also available for binary builds[4] and javadocs[5].
> In terms of features the server doesn't offer:
> -HTTPS
> -Authentication
> -Cookie support
> -Session support
> In addition several aspects of the Servlet implementation have not been tested including:
> -Multipart POST
> -DELETE
> -PUT
> -Non-default character encodings
> And as of the submission several Servlet API methods are unimplemented in (all unimplemented methods throw org.apache.felix.http.lightweight.servlet.UnimplementedAPIException):
> -HttpServletRequest(Impl)
> -HttpServletResponse(Impl)
> However the core functionality has been implemented and tested and the Felix Web Admin application can be hosted with this HTTP Service implementation.
> I plan in continuing to use the service in personal and professional projects and would be happy to continue to add unimplemented features and maintain the code base as a Felix committer.
> Thanks!
