Hi Jan,

Just to let you know that there are certain workspace organisation
issues because of which we have to support some split-package scenarios.
That has froced us to use Require-Bundle in our code a bit more that we
like. So, replacing any part is currently hard - it's a temporary short
coming. Once we fix our code to use Import-Package, it will be much
easier to replace parts of the server just as you envisioned.

Thanks,
Sahoo
