OSGi-fied Scala libraries
Heiko Seeberger has just updated the OSGi-fied versions of Scala libraries. As he explains
The “official” Scala libraries (scala-lang.jar, scala-swing.jar, etc.) are not (yet) delivered as OSGi bundles. There is an Eclipse plug-in which is part of the Scala IDE for Eclipse which basically is an OSGi bundle, but it is an all-in-one bundle (assembles scala-*.jar) [...]
