Hi Eric,

that sounds interesting. As far as I remember we started to embed Jetty
as by that time Jetty was not available as OSGi bundles out of the box.
The other reason is ease of use, you just need to install a single
bundle - which is sufficient for most users - instead of a set of bundles.

Would it be possible to create the uber bundle with the correct set of
files like the service loader stuff?

How about we provide two artifacts, the uber and the thin one? I really
would like to keep the uber one as this makes using it easier and is
easier for upgrading existing systems.

Regards

Carsten
