I think this summarizes a core maintenance issue with pax+karaf today

I suggest we take a look at migrating pax-* (pax-logging. pax-url, pax-web, 
etc) into karaf for a couple of practical benefits (perhaps for Karaf 4.5?):

1. Less repositories to manage and preform releases
2. Artifacts (jars, configs, services) are less confusing to users (ie.  
org.apache.karaf.web makes more sense vs org.ops4j.pax.web .. etc)

This would also give us an opportunity to see how this gels before finalizing 
what is supported in Karaf 5 (jetty, tomcat, etc).

Thoughts?
