Up till now we've had an unwritten policy that all work done by committers
gets added to the main trunk build. These days osgi is one of the more
active areas of discussion by tuscany users, and this osgi work has been
usefully finding quite a lot of problems with the existing code in trunk. So
this is one of our more worthwhile bits of our code IMHO. Ongoing changes in
trunk are continually breaking the osgi code as its not getting tested in
the main build and so requiring a lot of work just to keep it running. So i
think we should try real hard to find a way to get it included in the build
and to do that sooner than waiting for any trunk restructure that could take
some time to get consensus on.

>From your last post about the disk space size of the trunk build I've
already done some clean up of our use of activemq which reduced the space
needed by a build by about 250 Meg, is that enough of a reduction to now
include osgi-tuscany in the build? If not i can see quite a few other simple
changes that could be done to the build to reduce size further so how much
of a reduction is needed?
