About source and target, I want to know whether my understanding is right as following: Assuming the following: <resource id='org.foo/1.0', ...> <require name='package' filter='(&(package=org.bar))' extend='true' ...> ... Then, while deploying the resource, whether org.foo is source and the bundle exporting org.bar is target? > >> 2) I have seen source and I found that while using obr to deploy a >> resource, it seems that "extend" and "multiple" attributes have not any >> effect on deploying, is right? > > The currently implementation does nothing with either, although the new > OBR resolver implementation does take cardinality (i.e., multiple) into > account.

Then, whether meaning felix obr will end up with 1.6.6 or not? Or having any plan to continue to forward felix obr's development? > > I think "extend" has been dropped from the latest repository work. Here's "the latest repository work" means "felix obr's development" or "JBOSS Repo"?
