OSGI is a colossal time sink that only looks simple; but really, really isn't. I have learned this the hard way. It is poorly documented, and virtually untestable. It is like Maven on PCP. Please don't succumb to the temptation to make a few more changes just to support OSGI. If you want to support OSGI (which I'm finding to be a lot more trouble than it's worth over in XOM) then please do it in 1.1.2 rather than holding 1.1.1 for it. There are critical bug fixes in 1.1.1 that are useful without OSGI support. -- Elliotte Rusty Harold [email protected] _______________________________________________ To control your jdom-interest membership: http://www.jdom.org/mailman/options/jdom-interest/[email protected]
