I am seeking clarification on Gemini Management and Ent. OSGi spec version compliance - v4.2 or v5.0?

On the Gemini Home page (http://eclipse.org/gemini/), it states "Implements the JMX™ Management Model Specification defined in chapter 124 of the OSGi 4.2 Enterprise Specification" (see

first sentence of "Gemini Management" paragraph).

On the Gemini Management release notes page (http://www.eclipse.org/gemini/management/download/release-notes/2.0.0.RELEASE.php), it states "The major theme for the 2.0.x line is

compatibility with the Enterprise OSGi 5.0 specification." Inspection of downloaded 2.0.0 binaries (org.eclipse.gemini.management-2.0.0.RELEASE.jar) and sources

(org.eclipse.gemini.management-2.0.0.RELEASE-sources.jar) shows file latest file mod dates of April 2013. Also, last known bug was closed April 2013

(https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&classification=RT&product=Gemini.Management&target_milestone=2.0.0.RELEASE).

Questions:
(a) Doesn't 2.0.0 release imply v5.0 spec compliance?
(b) Why doesn't Gemini Home page (http://eclipse.org/gemini/) state that Gemini Management complies with v5.0 (but instead asserts v4.2 compliance)?

Thanks for pointing out this ambiguity / inconsistency in the Gemini Management documentation.

As stated in the release notes the Release 2.0.0 is compatible with the Enterprise OSGi 5.0 specification.

This is simply an outdated information. Sorry for any inconvenience caused by this.

I will take care of updating the homepage as soon as possible.
