I've been cleaning up my regions code in hopes of committing it shortly, and just pushed the current version to github (https://github.com/djencks/karaf) (region branch).
After seeing 3 regression tests fail I discovered that karaf won't start under equinox when the region jar is installed. If anyone wants to take a look or has any ideas what might be going on I'd appreciate it. I commented out the "use equinox" line of the 3 failing tests but you can try starting the apache-karaf server under equinox. thanks david jencks
