[news.eclipse.technology.equinox] Re: Use of Service Binder with Equinox

[Neil Bartlett <njbartlett@xxxxxxxxx>]

Ban,

Yes, DS does everything that service binder could do, and more. Please 
do not use service binder.

You are using an obsolete OSGi implementation and reading obsolete 
documents. "OSCAR" is now known as Apache Felix and can be downloaded 
from http://felix.apache.org/

Regards
Neil
