Hi Sergey, Some comments below...

If the configuration type is called org.apache.cxf.ws then its specific configuration variables should be called org.apache.cxf.ws.something (see table 122.1 in the OSGi 4.2 Enterprise Spec http://www.osgi.org/Download/Release4V42). This is to avoid name clashes when you want to expose a service using multiple Remote Service implementations that may not be aware of each other. So to be compliant we have to live with parallel properties. I do agree on matching up the properties where this makes sense across org.apache.cxf.ws and org.apache.cxf.rs > - HTTPS support ?

While I agree that this would be great to have, I'm not sure if we should wait for it to be finished. I'm not aware of anyone working on this at the moment (please correct me if I'm wrong!). Months of work have gone in making CXF-DOSGi compliant with the spec and I don't think we should hold releasing this off until a nice piece of functionality which hasn't even been started on has been finished. There's nothing wrong with releasing often, so if this functionality appears we can do a release again, unless someone is already working on HTTPS support of course... Best regards, David
