Hi Holger,

what makes you think CXF DOSGi is unmaintained and full of bugs?
The project is for sure not comparable to CXF itself but there are 3 active
developers and we released about every 6 months during the last 2 years.
Our current release is from January 2014.
See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DOSGI

Having said that there really is not that much drive behind CXF DOSGi at
the moment. Not sure how the other implementations do at the moment though.
