+1 for the name, and +1 for bringing together the felix and SMX kernels
communities.
One question though: will Karaf be intimately tied to the Felix OSGi
implementation? I think that Karaf would be stronger if we can show that it
works over any OSGi compliant core. Thoughts, anyone?
Are there any Felix subprojects dependent upon the Felix framework
implementation (besides Main, which is the framework launcher) ?
not AFAIK, but this comes back to people's subconscious view that bundles
hosted at a
particular framework site are somehow tied to that framework - which is
hardly ever true.
I guess we need to do more to advertise our bundles can be used on any
framework...
such as the idea of having a table showing where they had been successfully
tested?
Yes, this has been discussed before and we actually have an issue for it:
http://felix.apache.org/site/contributing.html
I think this is also related to the other issue I re-posted about
re-arranging the web site around subprojects.
More and more evidence that this is the right direction to take.

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).
And K == Kernel etc :)
+1 am liking it.
Easy to remember, spell and google search. Unless anyone can think of
a better idea. (My ideas were all terrible :)
