Hi Neil,

While I'm certainly not an expert I can probably field some n00b questions and would be happy to spend some time doing so. In addition as people learn about BUG, OSGi inevitably comes up. Having a mailing list resource for general OSGi questions would be a great developer resource.

cheers

Hi,

There doesn't seem to be a mailing list or forum for newbies to get general help with OSGi programming that is not specific to any particular OSGi implementation. For example I have today received a question by email as follows: "can I access a service through some kind of static method rather than an instance of BundleContext". Yes, we all know this is a wrong-headed question, but newbies to OSGi are going to have questions like this, and they need a safe and welcoming place to ask them and get answers.

This list is clearly not the right forum. Might I suggest creating an "osgi-users" mailing list? Of course we would also need some OSGi experts who are prepared to subscribe to the list and spend a little time answering questions.

Regards,
Neil
