+1 for the idea and name but what would be the impact on future fixes if
any needed for some stuff in Servicemix which also needs fixes in
kernel? Also, what is the impact of some other changes that will go in
as part of Felix project on the future of Servicemix project? I am sure
Guillaume and others must have this discussed but just wanted to voice
out the questions I had in mind.

I agree, this sounds like a win-win for all involved (as per James /
Guillaume's post).
As a name submission I'd like Carafe (pronounced "karaf"). A carafe is
a small container used for serving wine and other drinks
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carafe). In similarity to the name the
Kernel allows applications to be more easily handled, and improves
their characteristics (much like a bottle of wine left to breath in a
decanter) :)
What about Karaf to lower the google hit counts and still preserve the
nice semantic ...
... and eventually fill the "K" hole of the Apache TLP names list (in
case it ever becomes a TLP later).
+1 for the name, and the idea of moving it over to Felix :)

Agreed. If this does happen - we'll need a cool name (which doesn't
have ServiceMix in the title :).
Anyone any suggestions? Naming is super hard!

I think this would be a great move, and like Guillaume said, would
increase
the visibility substantially. I think a few Apache projects have
started
tracking ServiceMix Kernel and might be using it as the basis for their
OSGi
based projects. However, when most people see the ServiceMix moniker,
they
don't realize that it is really a generic OSGi base application.
So I am +1 on this idea.

During ApacheCon last week, there has been some discussions around
moving ServiceMix Kernel as a subproject of Felix.
ServiceMix Kernel is a packaged distribution of Felix designed for
server side applications (see http://servicemix.apache.org/kernel/for
more informations).
I think this would be beneficial for this project as it would enable
to build a much bigger community around it, increase the visibility
and the awareness around it. Of course, it would need a new name, but
that's another problem.
Another area that could be included in this move is the ServiceMix
specs (OSGi enhanced versions of Java EE specifications from Geronimo)
and ServiceMix bundles (we've released a bunch of bundles already, see
http://servicemix.apache.org/smx4/bundles-repository.html).
I'd like to have feedback from both communities (and any other
interested parties) to gauge the interest in such a move.
