JCR meetup at 8pm on Tuesday
Hi all, I'd like to confirm the meetup schedule that has been discussed over various forums. Most notably, unlike originally planned the meetup will start at *8pm* on Tuesday, March 24th. See http://wiki.apache.org/jackrabbit/JcrMeetupMarch2009 for more details about the event. If you are in Amsterdam or nearby on Tuesday evening next week, you're welcome to join us to discuss all things JCR. The meetup is free for everyone to attend, but please sign up in advance at https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?formkey=cDFlMTdSV3dKT1lkYUlVa2lWUFdkQXc6MA. The meetup takes place at the Mövenpick hotel in central Amsterdam (Google map: http://tinyurl.com/da2rf3). I don't know yet the exact floor or room where the meetup takes place, but check the ApacheCon posters at the hotel for guidance. You can also call me at +41 76 417 56 70 if you have trouble finding your way there. See you there! BR, Jukka Zitting
Re: OSGI pluggability in Sling
Hi Glenn, Glenn Silverman schrieb: > As a Sling novice, I would like to know if the OSGI implementation in > Sling is really pluggable, as the documentation suggests? In fact, all of Sling is just OSGi Bundles and should be easily pluggable into just about any OSGi framework, including Equinox and Knopflerfish. > If so, is there a how-to document, or an example, of using Equinox in > place of Felix. There is a how-to run the Jackrabbit stuff inside Equinox at [1]. And there is a page on running Sling on the ServiceMix Kernel at [2]. There is a slight drawback: You have to setup and install "manually". > How about running Sling and Jackrabbit, without Felix, in Spring DM? Should actually be very possible, though I do not know, whether this has already been tried. Any feedback would of course be welcome.

I have made some tests runnig Sling on the ServiceMix Kernel and everything was ok. An OSGi R4 Http Service implementation is mandatory in order to work, for instance Pax Web [1]. Regarding with this, maybe we should provide a systematic way to test Sling on other OSGi containers than Apache Felix. Using Pax Exam [2] with the Sling integration tests could be a choice. WDYT?

I was thinking along the lines of creating a "dummy bundle", which contains references to "core" Sling bundles. Then we could instruct to point the OSGi Bundle Repository Client to the Sling Bundle Repository and install the "dummy bundle" to have Sling easily installed.
