Are there plans for exposing the OSGi Framework at the core of GFv3 to
the applications running inside the appserver?
It would be a huge enhancement if one WAR can register an OSGi Service
with the OSGi framework, and another ejb-jar can get a reference to this
service. This is somehow similar to what we currently do with @EJB
annotations, with the difference that the dependencies in case of using
the OSGI's BundleContext.getServiceReferences() are resolved at runtime.
