Hi Sergey, Yes I started on the subsystem distro. This will be usable with implementations of the OSGi Enterprise R5 subsystem specification [1]. Currently the build process is not ideal and contains some hardcoded stuff, so the subsystem distribution is not ready. There has been some discussion in the Aries user list in relation to a maven plugin that will smoothen this out [2]. The subsystem distro will combine the convenience of the single bundle distro with the modularity of the multi-bundle distro. The best of both worlds :) However, I'm not sure whether it will completely replace the single bundle distro. It requires a subsystem implementation to be present in the OSGi framework and not everyone may have this. Additionally, I added some stuff in the discovery area: * Fixed a NPE when remote services with non-supported service registration properties were put in the Discovery Server. * Added a Discovery Plugin (experimental) that allows the transformation of discovery information.
