Richard S. Hall commented on FELIX-538:
---------------------------------------

This issue is for a very lightweight HTTP Service implementation, one that 
could run on very small devices, so this likely won't be done with Jetty. In 
other words, we are talking about another implementation of the service in 
addition to our existing Jetty-based implementation.

Separately, we had discussed the possibility of merging Pax Web with Felix' 
HTTP Service based on Jetty, but it appears there is little 
time/resources/motivation to do so. So, we will likely keep our HTTP Service 
since the Felix project goal is to implement the OSGi specs.

> In my sandbox I have committed a very simple, multi-threaded, file-based web 
> server. The web server was designed so that it could easily be used in a 
> bundle (e.g., it can be started, stopped, and restarted) and already has an 
> Activator. It would be interesting if we could extend this with servlet 
> support and tailor it specifically for the OSGi HTTP Service specification.
> If we could do this, then we could have one "heavyweight" OSGi HTTP Service 
> implementation based on Jetty and this really lightweight version for small 
> device requirements
