Hi Ioannis,

Good point, but, for instance, if Karaf requires Aries Blueprint (only for the namespace handler), it doesn't mean that we can't use another Blueprint implementation (like Gemini). Pushing namespace handlers out of the topic, it's already possible to use Gemini instead of Aries. So, even if Karaf use Blueprint internally, it doesn't mean that you can't use (from an user perspective) another implementations or framework.

Regards
JB

 From my point of view blueprint is fine. It does simplify things a lot
and our users do use it. That doesn't mean that Karaf needs to use it
too.
Decoupling Karaf from blueprint, not only allows Karaf to have a
smaller footprint, but also allows provides more flexibility since
Karaf could be used with different versions/implementations of
Blueprint etc.
So this is actually a "step forward".
