Re: [osgi-technology-dev] New Github Organization for OSGi Technology pr

[Stefan Bischof <stbischof@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Scott,

the eclipse-osgi-technology project is nothing new. we just now have a separate github organization. this was before on the osgi organisation.

I am pretty sure that eclipse-osgi-technology can host a lot of osgi relates implementations and utils.
But as you said, if there is an other project like ecf. there is no need to migrate.

eclipse-osgi-technology is also now there to host the best of all reference implementations.

but it is super to host compatible implementations or libs and tools.

current projects:
osgi-test
slf4j-osgi
jakartars-osgi

persons and projects that may are interested to join:
feature-launcher-impl -kentyou
jakarta-websocket-impl - sensinact and Christoph Läubrich
jakarta-xml.ws-impl - eclipse daanse
jakarta-jpa-impl - DataInMotion
rsa-impl - peter kriens and DataInmotion

all in the list are compatible implementations to osgi-specs so easy to understand what they do and that they would fit.

 
So if you have something like some rsa parts or python connections. i am open.

if you are an one eclipse-con we can meet with all osgi-technology committers.
if not, would be nice to gen more details on what you want to share.
