Agreed. OSGi = 10% of users (at most) other = 90% We cannot dump 90% of users into version-conflict hell in order to save 10% of users some effort when upgrading to the latest version. Yes, it would be nice if something like OSGi was universal, so packagename hacks like this were not necessary. But it just ain't so.
