Hi,
   The latest draft of the spec (well, the one posted at osgi.org) does
not ask for the framework to be compiled for jsr14. Does this change
implies that Felix will change the target to 1.5+? (BTW, I think Felix
should change this, but I do know this can be one of those
controversial issues).

I think we'll go ahead and do that for the framework 4.2.0 release, which will be the next one. Compiling to jsr14 by default is proving too problematic, I think. Better to require the people needing target jsr14 to recompile than the opposite.

If I find the time, I'd like to update the framework to the R5 API...I don't
plan on implementing any of the features, just upgrading to the latest API.
(Of course, there aren't too many new features, just the bundle collision
hook, I think.) The main reason to do so, is so the framework can start
using/providing the new Resource API, which it already mostly supports.

This would be beneficial, since it would allow us to run the OBR resolver
bundle I've checked into trunk, which requires the Resource API. Also, it
would make it easier for anyone wanting to submit patches to implement any
missing R5 functionality.

Before doing this, though, we'll probably cut a 4.2.0 release of the
framework first, so this wouldn't happen until 4.4.0 or something, but I
just wanted to run it by everyone to see if there were any objections. The
main issue being, the framework won't implement all R5 functionality once
released...we've done this in the past, so I don't suspect it is an issue
now, but you never know...
