Re: [jboss-osgi-dev] AS7-5639 Add OSGi Launcher to AS7

> I think it would be fair to assume that the org.osgi.core packages are shared from the initiating classloader sure, but how does this work? The osgi subsystem loads the framework from a module which loads the org.osgi.framework packages from another module. The osgi system packages that can be configured through framework properties still come from the modules hierarchy and not from the syscp. So I wonder how anything except java.* and some system packages defined though Modules can be used from outside the AS.
