don't forget the Apache Felix project :) wrt. getting involved - imho, there's a lower barrier to participation over at OPS4J (disclaimer, I spend a lot of time over there - it's also been a while since I was a student...) for example, it wouldn't take long to setup an OPS4J wiki page to investigate and design a better build system ... then anyone signed up via http://issues.ops4j.org could take part in the discussions / coding. for people who want to work on the internals of OSGi, either Equinox / Felix would probably be a better match, and just as rewarding ps. let me know if you need any mentoring/support for projects hosted at OPS4J...
