Re: [bv-dev] [BVAL-251] Improve Bean Validation support for modularized environments

Sorry for the long slack off. OSGi is generally not my field but here are a few comments on what Gunnar and Kevin have said: - we can definitely experiment with Hibernate Validator and offer some OOTB support for OSGi and other modularity solutions. - we can consider the API JAR provided by the RI team and add the OSGi headers if that's the correct solution but I don't feel like adding them in the spec document proper - we should align with what the CDI group does wrt OSGi headers especially since CDI will be an optional dependency of BV - can someone flesh out a more concrete proposal and push it to http://beanvalidation.org/proposals/BVAL-251 ? Kevin do you want to take the lead?
