Richard S. Hall commented on FELIX-55:
--------------------------------------

One issue we had with upgrading to newer versions of Jetty was support for 
earlier JVMs. Currently, we use a version of Jetty compiled for JDK 1.2 so that 
our HTTP Service can run on older JVMs. I guess this is not a hard constraint, 
but it is nice.

I did commit to my sandbox a simple file-based HTTP Service that we could think 
about using as a foundation for a lightweight HTTP Service implementation if we 
cannot maintain backwards compatibility.

> - Look at the issues and effort involved in migrating to a more recent 
> version of Jetty. Most likely the latest Jetty6 would be considered, since 
> this has architectural changes over Jetty5 and hence we'd be upgrading to the 
> latest greatest Jetty internals and APIs
> - Check backwards compatibility against existing (limited) set of cases in 
> test bundle
> - enlist help from others with bundles using HttpService for more extensive 
> testing
