Hi folks,

Just wanted to give an update regarding the status of http://eclipse.org/sisu/ 
as it's been a while(!) since we started the move.

[ Sisu is a container built on Guice that supports and extends JSR330, and can 
mimic Plexus - it's used by Maven3 runtime ]

The initial code-contribution has been fully approved, updated to use a simpler 
build, and tagged as 0.0.0.M0 ;)

Yesterday I tagged and released sisu-2.3.1:

   
http://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Corg.sonatype.sisu%7Csisu-inject-bean%7C2.3.1%7Cbundle
   
http://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Corg.sonatype.sisu%7Csisu-inject-plexus%7C2.3.1%7Cbundle

This is based on the tagged Eclipse/Sisu 0.0.0.M0 source, automatically fetched 
and repackaged back to the old namespace.
The goal of this release was to validate the initial contribution, and provide 
a route to get (future) bugfixes to old Sisu clients.

The actual differences from 2.3.0 to 2.3.1 are minor:

   * fix for a missing JarFile.close when scanning certain "file:" classpath 
entries
   * support for injecting the containing BundleContext when running inside OSGi
   * sisu-guice dependency bumped up to 3.1.2

I also ran the Maven ITs against this release to verify.

Still plenty left to do on the roadmap (http://wiki.eclipse.org/Sisu/Roadmap) - 
including cleanup of the Sisu API/SPI to make it more reusable and less tied to 
Guice for the future.

If anyone has questions, ideas, or wants to help out then they're very welcome 
(see support / developers links on the main page) otherwise I'll send the 
occasional note to keep everyone in the loop.

Cheers, Stuart
