Status of Opensource OSGi containers

I wrote some tables summarizing status of OSGi opensource containers and their adherence to OSGi standard. In the first table I have compared adherence to the core standard while on the second I have compared adherence to optional services.

For the comparison i considered following opensource implementations: Eclipse Equinox, Apache Felix, Knopflerfish OSGi and Osxa framework.

Update

  • 01-23-06: fixed a mistake with felix and startlevel service; fixed latest developments on Equinox
  • 01-25-06: updated ‘declarative services’ status with Equinox and Felix

Core Standard Status

Optional Services Status

Please feel free to correct me if there is something wrong in tables

    I like your thorough comparison.
    I wonder if you have looked at OSGI.net. The environment used by my major client is .net centric.
    Thank you
