Kurt. The long term goal is to use either MC, OSGi or both (not MK). In any case the ESB services need to be configurable/constructed by as many frameworks as possible and need to be isolated from whichever one is in control. The intention is to have integration layers for these frameworks, where needed, in much the same way that TS does with AS. As for componentising the ESB, I was talking about the possibility of componentising into finer grained deployments than the jars we already have :-).
