I think it is very important that we get an easily

possible...actually, it is long overdue. :-(

And these changes are only in the last two months, there are many more
improvements before then (like the rewriting of the URL Handlers
service to support multiple framework instances). I am confident to
say that Felix is ready for more wide-scale usage. This means that we
need to make a public release.
Currently, Felix reports itself as 0.7.0...I think we should follow a
release model where odd numbered point releases are experimental and
even numbered point releases are stable. I propose that we declare the
next release to be 0.8.0, with the subsequent development occurring in
0.9.0, followed by the 1.0.0 release.
Like makes perfect sense.
If people have familiarity with making releases here at Apache, your
input would be greatly appreciated, because this is all new to me.
I can lend a hand with the maven and distribution aspects. To a large
degree the plugin will handle most of the packaging in various formats
for us.
Comments and suggestions are encouraged. Let's get this thing out the
door ASAP.

Started playing in my sandbox. Will attempt some mavenization of what
you have in the trunk. I'm splitting things up now to abid by the one
module one artifact principal behind maven. Got a handful of tiny
issues but I'll find a quick fix for it then ask questions later :).
