FWIW, an idea that I (vaguely) mentioned earlier is making the Felix repositories writable for committers of "sibling projects". Felix would give write access to all committers of OSGi-related Apache projects, and define community rules for how people are expected to use those commit rights. Rules like "feel free to fix non-core simple things directly where test coverage makes things obvious, and discuss everything else on list before committing". We did that between Cocoon, Lenya and Forrest a while ago (well, 15 years maybe ;-) and it worked well. I shall be able to dig out more info if desired, can't find it right now. I'm not saying this needs to happen right now but wanted to mention the idea - it might help make the non-core parts of Felix more dynamic by getting more contributions from those "sibling" OSGi-related projects as well as motivate people to bring modules here that are of general use. -Bertrand (who's not a PMC member here, so just making a suggestion based on past experience)
