I think Jim came up with a good lithmus test; "If it is unclear what should NOT go into a project..." So, when I read the proposal the second time, my interpretation is that there is no actual boundary, other than perhaps "OSGi". If it was "only specs", then I would support Richard's notion that the community should work towards Felix sub-project (which was a sore point), but the scope is "enterprise OSGi", which is just about as wide as it gets. Perhaps the group as such has much better ideas on what they mean, fair enough, but then *I* would like to see it in the proposal. After all, it is very common around here that the proposal will become the basis for the project charter (if any), so *I* think it is better to address this early (and often ;-) )...
