Re: RequiresBundle, ImportPackage and virtual providers

 Peter,

I have a tangential question about JSR 291. You said:

I agree with this of course, but given that JSR 291 does not intend to
include the Service Layer, how will this decoupling be achieved in a
runtime that is JSR 291-compliant but not OSGi R4-compliant?

For that matter, why IS the Service Layer being excluded??

Sorry, perhaps this thread should be on osgi-dev rather than equinox-dev.

Regards
Neil
