While we could switch to spring 3.1 in karaf 2.4.0 I think we should not do it in 2.3.1.

The reason is that 2.3.1 will be a bug fix release. So compatibility is the most important thing in these releases. The idea behind this is that people who need an important e.g. security fix should be able to update karaf without having to retest every deployment. As Spring 3.1 is a minor update not a bugfix update I think the switch should not go into a bugfix release of karaf.

We do not really have an official policy like this at karaf but it is how I understand bugfix releases. So what do other think?

I strongly support Spring 3.1 for future Karaf 2.3.1 :-)

If one requires strictly Spring 3.0, they can still use Karaf 2.3.0 or can
use "spring30" feature. But I doubt anyone would ever need it (hopefully).
