Hi, Have been thinking conceptually about this over the last week. Managed to find some interesting conversations on the user archives [1] and had a look at the Nutch OSGi wiki page which is horribly out of date. Although initially the OSGi stuff sounds appealing, I can't help but think that why fix what isn't broken. I think Kirby's points in the correspondence below are really interesting, and if as a community we agree that OSGi would be better for Nutch then OK. However in terms of weighing up the pros and cons or trying to provide a well justified arguement backing OSGi... it would appear that I'm not fully convinced that anyone has managed to do this yet.
Does anyone have anything to add? If not then I propose to move the OSGi documentation to the archive for someone else to bring out on a rainy day a few years from now. Thanks [1] http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg02694.html -- *Lewis*
