OSGi in practice- where do I start?

Session description

Assuming that you have got the general idea that OSGi is a modularity framework for Java. You understand, in theory, that OSGi uses 'bundles' (jars with extra metadata) and that bundles communicate using 'services'.

You are ready to dive in an develop a sample OSGi application - but where do you start? What free resources are there to help you write bundles? And what's the best way to OSGi applications? How can you test them?

In this session we'll provide answers to these questions.
