First, thanks for getting back to me on this. I was pretty impressed with
asciinema, going to use it a lot more in the future (did you see you can
copy/paste from the video while it is playing!? That is super cool!)
I see the file: features.cfg. In it I see this section that refers to
featuresBoot
featuresBoot = \
standard, \
wrap
Should it include something related to old-example? How do I know what to put
there?

I’m guessing uncommenting this without fixing the features.cfg file isn’t going
to do anything?

I can follow a step-by-step checklist, I promise! (missing steps makes it a
bit harder though)

Yeah, this encapsulation that is going on in the features-repo is confusing. I
still don’t get how OSGi connects the dots between “packaging” that announces
itself as a “feature”, a “bundle” or a “pom”. The Karaf 4 manual might as well
be written in sanskrit because I can’t make it through the first few paragraphs
without stack-overflowing.
So, is example totally broken? (similar to toaster and coretutorials)? Is
there a simple “hello world”-esque example anywhere in ODL that works with
Nitrogen SR1?
