I'm not for changing the policy. The whole point behind the policy is that anything that we released is in some way blessed and lives forever. If we release packages in the OSGi namespace, they look official even potentially after the OSGi Alliance dumps an RFC (ala Gogo). There is no way for

I Like the simple version ( org.osgi.someapi; version="0.1"; mandatory:="provisional"; provisional="felix" ), and then I think it makes sense to advise a bit more conservative import range like Import-Package: org.osgi.someapi;version="[0.1,0.2)";provisional=felix And that also implies that the

This suggestion from David sounds like a reasonable compromise to me. I would point out that if you are building with bnd and you put a bundle with a mandatory attribute on your build path, then bnd will assume that you want to set that attribute on your import. Thus it will work fairly

In that case I don't like the idea of released bundles using API versions < 1. What if some other bundle is providing that same package there would be no way for te resolver to know that those packages are actually not compatible. On Fri, Dec 23, 2016 at 12:30 PM David Bosschaert <
