vaading osgi collaboration google group

[Christopher Brind]

Hi Joonas,

I just wanted to let you know that a group of us have got together and had a chat about how we are using Vaadin and OSGi together.  We decided that some of us have actual use-cases for applications built like this and others just want to be using a clean RIA framework with OSGi.

Two of us have already implemented something using OSGi.  As you know I have put my contribution in to the directory, and Neil has some work on Github.com

njbartlett.github.com/#VaadinOSGi

As a result of our discussion we've created a Google Group with which to discuss this at more length, share and review code, etc and would like to invite you and/or your engineers to feel free to join the group and contribute as well.

groups.google.com/group/vaadin-osgi

We don't really know where we're going with this just yet, I guess - other than to decide on some recommended practices and perhaps build an OSGi-oriented framework that might eventually be adopted by Vaadin itself - who knows?!

Anyway, we just thought we would share with you. :)

Cheers,

Chris
