Hi, I'm having 2 problems with Plexus:
1) I tried to upgrade and it's not working. They've dropped the ability to dynamically register a new component instance for an existing role. Jason Van Zyl said he's ok to fix it but he's busy on other stuff and it's been now 2 weeks since he said he'll fix it. Generally speaking there are not many people working on Plexus core so it's not moving much. 2) I tried using events (it was there in alpha-31 but seem to have disappeared in recent versions - I may be wrong. However since there's zero documentation I had to try to find it in the code and couldn't find it) and couldn't. Even in alpha-31 it doesn't work (it works only for components located in components.xml but since we're dynamically registering components it doesn't work for us. Thus I'm more and more tempted to drop support for Plexus and instead use our Embedded component manager for now and start a xwiki-osgi module that would implement our SPI for OSGi. I've read OSGi documentation and it looks not too difficult to do. I have all the code done for sending Component Manager events but it won't work with Plexus so I'm proposing to use our Embedded CM for now. In the meantime I'll try to talk to Jason to see what can be done on the plexus side. WDYT? Note that our Embedded CM hasn't been tested for multithreading so we'll need to verify it works in the 2.0 dev cycle and fix any threading issue.
