+1. Makes sense to me.
Thomas Watson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/16/2007 05:20 PM Please respond to Equinox development mailing list <equinox-dev@eclipse.org> To equinox-dev@eclipse.org cc Subject [equinox-dev] Proposal for an OSGi spec work area in the equinox incubator I would like to start a new work area in the Equinox incubator to support prototyping and investigating future OSGi specifications. The goal behind this work area is to develop an implementation of the specification as the specification is being developed. This work area will allow others to more easily join in on the investigations for future OSGi implementations. To begin with this work area would be used to implement the next release of the OSGi Framework, but other future OSGi specifications could also be contributed. This will also allow Equinox to provide reference implementations to OSGi without effecting the current Eclipse release. We would only graduate the code out of the incubator once the OSGi specification has gone public/final and we can align it with a major Eclipse release. I would like to take a vote to approve the OSGi spec work area in the equinox incubator.

The release of the next OSGi specification will be long after the Eclipse 3.4 (Ganymede) release. To achieve a stable Ganymede release we will not release new OSGi R4.2 API or implement new R4.2 functions in the Ganymede stream (HEAD). We need a place where we can continue to implement and prototype the next OSGi specification release as it is being developed. I see two options. 1) Create an area in the Equinox incubator to develop the OSGi R4.2 implementation 2) Create a branch off of the current Ganymede stream (HEAD) for OSGi R4.2 implementation I prefer using a branch instead of a separate repository project in the incubator because it will make life easier when developing streams in parallel, which we will likely need to do until the Ganymede release in June 2008. I plan to create a branch based of next weeks I-Build for the OSGi R4.2 work. Please let me know if you have any issues with this.
