| Sounds great Ian. I suggest the following as a minimum: - Eclipse (the IDE) - OSGi starter kit (from RTP) - Web starter kit (from RTP) In fact, here are words for the three suggested above. Eclipse IDE The Eclipse IDE is the premiere open source tooling platform. It is used regularly by millions(??) of developers and is the base for hundreds of free and commercial offerings world-wide. OSGi modularity has been one of the key success factors in the creation of this platform and the explosive innovation in the Eclipse tooling ecosystem. (note, we might want to broaden this to the Eclipse tooling packages put out by EPP)... OSGi Starter kit The OSGi Starter Kit is an easy to use configuration of Equinox, the OSGi framework reference implementation, and the Equinox p2 provisioning platform. Together these enable users to start with OSGi technology and incrementally discover, investigate and experiment with OSGi-based technology from a wide variety of vendors. Web Starter Kit The Web Starter Kit is a collection of OSGi-based technology from the Eclipse open-source community. As a minimum it includes Equinox, the OSGi framework reference implementation, the Equinox p2 provisioning platform, and Jetty, a high-performance web application server. This combination enables users to get up and running with OSGi-based server-side capabilities quickly and easily. It also forms the basis of many server and embedded systems offerings. We can associate the Eclipse logo with the IDE and the RT logo with the starter kits. The starter kit links should go to relevant RTP produced pages. Ideally the other projects in RT would also spend a few minutes to produce 50-100 words on the role/benefit of OSGi in their offering. Its not hard. Took me all of 15 min to do 3...
