In fact I think we should take a look how far we really want to break down the various components. What really should be extracted. Although there are various possibilities to split Karaf I would roughly suggest something like: management, web, clustering, spring (to finally get the spring things out of the "real" core :)). Since there are 13 PMCs (if Jamie stays at releasing karaf-core there are still 12 remaining) I think it should be possible to find 4 PMCs willing to take over the release process for those components. I have no problem taking one myself (which means 3 remaining :))...
