I have long been longing for a good application server with a good osgi
implementation.
So far, jboss AFAIK has no intension of migrating to osgi based kernel
and geronimo does not look to me like has good osgi feature that we are
all used to from eclipse osgi implementation.
Eclipse platform has taken steps that allows this easily. It has many
features already in place. It should not be hard to integrate with
projects like apache and openejb etc.
Maybe it is the time for eclipse to make its second boom in the
community by addressing the need.
What do you say? If people are interested in, we should form a group and
discuss how this could be achieved and them sit at our laptops and start
coding?
