Hi Pavel,
It would be very handy if the Jersey jars would be split into the
actual jax-rs reference implementation and jax-rs utilities that can
be used with the reference implementation as well as with any other.
In an OSGi environment this would mean having one jersey bundle
exporting only the mainly javax.ws.rs packages and another bundle that
exposes jersey jars with the utilities.
If high level utilities like templating support cannot practically be
implemented purely on jax-rs but need to interact with the jax-rs
implementation via proprietary apis this would be a flaw of jsr-3111,
as reference implementation jersey should make this visible.
Regards,
Reto
