+1 for org.eclipse.equinox.initialprovisioning

I think this name will reduce an confusion with the

rest of the equinox provisioning work.

+1 for org.eclipse.equinox.scr

There is no problem replacing the current implementations
in the 
incubator.  To be clear this is under the equinox-incubator
directory
at dev.eclipse.org:/cvsroot/eclipse.  At this
point I suggest we 
get the initial code released in the incubator.  It
is likely that 
a number of refactorings are going be needed to follow
other
eclipse coding practices (i.e. using "internal"
package names etc.).

I'm not fussed on getting all the names correct initially.
 We 
can easily rename them if needed in the incubator.

I think we should consider separating this out into
another bundle and
import the packages from org.eclipse.equinox.io (but
we can do this later).
I'm not sure why it has to be a system bundle fragment.
 I think we should 
make it a normal bundle (called javax.microedition.io?).
