Shibboleth Developers

[Chad La Joie <>]

Hey Jonathan,

I don't know a great deal about OSGi but I have been looking in to it 
because I believe it would help with the issue of delineating between 
our public APIs that devs should feel free to use use and the private 
ones they shouldn't be using.

In the next major version of our projects (IdP, OpenSAML, Centralized 
DS, Metadata Aggregator) I'm beginning to split apart the code bases in 
to various JARs; breaking them up in to functional modules and splitting 
apart the public code from the private/internal code.  If you are 
interested in helping make sure that that code is bundled appropriately 
for OSGi containers you're definitely welcome to help out.  It won't 
help you with the current major versions but will help you out in the 
future.
