I have been using the new CDI along with Camel 2.17.3 and it sounds as if I
don't need the SCR at all then?   So I'd be able to remove the felix scr
annotations dependency? The last element in the list which I've italicized.

<dependency>
<groupId>javax.enterprise</groupId>
<artifactId>cdi-api</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.ops4j.pax.cdi</groupId>
<artifactId>pax-cdi-api</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0.RC1</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
<artifactId>camel-cdi</artifactId>
</dependency>
*<dependency>*
* <groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId>*
* <artifactId>org.apache.felix.scr.annotations</artifactId>*
* </dependency>*
