WTP does not appear to ... though they do use
org.eclipse.equinox.http.jetty.

But ... a note to cross-project list might better reach your intended
audience (I know ... I too can not believe everyone does not follow
equinox-dev ... but, just in case :)

Subject:        [equinox-dev] Any consumers of the org.eclipse.equinox.http
            bundle?
Sent by:        [email protected]



In Equinox we have a two implementations of the HttpService.

1) org.eclipse.equinox.http - that has a home grown web container and
therefore has to implement the complete servlet specification itself.
2) org.eclipse.equinox.http.jetty - that is uses a jetty implementation for
the web container implementation.

The implementation that uses jetty is by far the most used HttpService
implementation we have. For example, it is the one shipped with the eclipse
SDK to serve up the help and is used in the server-side equinox project.
The old org.eclipse.equinox.http is outdated and gets very little attention
by the committers. As we consider moving to support servlet 3.0 and Jetty 8
we also need to consider what, if anything, should be done for the old
stand-alone HttpService bundle org.eclipse.equinox.http.

For Juno I propose that the Equinox project stops building the old
stand-alone HttpService implementation bundle org.eclipse.equinox.http. I
would much prefer we focus on the implementation of the HttpService that
uses Jetty and keep the implementation of the servlet container in the
hands of the experts that know how to implement it (i.e. the jetty team).

Please voice any concerns to this mailing list or to the bug

Thanks.
