  >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
  
  Recap on work on Natty:
  
  Current Challenges:
  * Binary packaging produced for Natty release does not currently pass JEE Certification Tests on OpenJDK (only passes on sun-jdk); this needs to be resolved if we are going to try to get this into the main archive.
  Packaging Approach:
  * Key Dependencies:
    - ow2 EasyBeans
    - ow2 JOTM
    - ow2 CAROL
    - ow2 monolog
    - ow2 perseus
    - ow2 cmi
    - ow2 medor
    - tomcat7
    - Adobe Cairngorm
    - axis2
    - ops4j
    - Google Guice
  
  * Potential Issues:
    - Maven version 2.1.x (not 2.0.x) in archive
    - osgi wraps around existing libraries
    - Flash in admin GUI.
    - Large amount of dependency packaging
  
  JOnAS
  
  - 5.3 - JEE 6 profile
  - 5.3 - JEE 5 profile
  
   OSGi 4.2- stan
  
  - Apache Felix (or Eclipse)
  
  Micro-container architecutre - very low dependency requirement.
  
  Services delivered as bundles.
