Hi Boris,

Far-sighted comment. Direct references to Java library really cause some
portable problems. I guess, it is trade-off. One thing is, for the current
osgi, the libraries shipped with JVM are unbound to the bundle. In current
usage of Eclipse plugin, there are many many direct references coupling in
tbe different plugins(already mentioned in the e4 whitepaper). If using
JavaScript bundle under this pattern, I guess we have no chance to escape
the coupling life. Maybe e4 service-based programming model is good to solve
this problem?

I will really appreciate it if I would do some useful things in the e4. I
try to find some bugs in e4.language, but there seem only several new bugs
there.(or I am wrong in using the bugzilla?) I hope my joining will not
disturb their development plan. At least, I can just do some documenting
works. Yeah:)

Best regards,
Jin Mingjian
