Re: [equinox-dev] [sec] JAAS framework dependency on Eclipse

["Matt Flaherty" <mwflaher@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The authentication code currently relies
on extension points to contribute the JAAS artifacts, so I don't believe
it will currently work in a pure OSGi environment.

Nothing is currently planned in this
direction - primarily because no one has asked yet... Requirements (via
bugzilla) and contributions are both welcome :)
