   And NB bundling third party libs as friends APIs can be equally problematic 
(eg. using JNA in RCP used to be a problem).  Not all libs work well with 
multiple versions in one system.
   
   Better IMO to use major release version for breaking upstream changes, and 
try to limit how much our own exported APIs are impacted by the choice of 
upstream library version.
   
   I have no concern with dropping OSGi if it won't cause problems elsewhere.  
I think the exported packages should be kept in sync, and probably bump the 
module major version to 6?
