Hello

I'm on PTO till Tuesday, I'm back to work on Sep 2nd.

About Pax Web 8 - indeed, I don't want to hold Karaf 4.3.0 any longer.
Whiteboard pattern is actually ready (everything defined in Whiteboard spec
is in place except tests for Preprocessors and per-context session
handling). The problem is that what Pax Web 7 already had is still missing.

Long story short - Pax Web 7 handled ServletContainerInitializers well and
it's the fundamental thing to handle JSPs and JSFs. But what I had to
change for Whiteboard compliance is actually a bit incompatible with those
customizers (most importantly - dynamic "ServletContext.addServlet()"
according to Whiteboard specification should throw
UnsupportedOperationException - so bye bye JSFs).

I already have an idea how to "fix" this, but this will again delay Pax Web
8 a bit.

regards
Grzegorz Grzybek
