Hi Sorin, I am not saying OSGi does not fit into the broker. Undoubtedly we should OSGi-fy the broker at some point. That will add modularity, multiple version support, hot deployment/update, etc into the broker. What I am saying is that the way OSGi is used in the current plug-in architecture does not add any value from an OSGi point of view. We have rather used the service registry facility in OSGi to register and look up services (i.e. plug-in factories in this case).
