+###### OSGI Notes ######
+
+1. Dependency on Third Party Bundles
+  	 	Some adapters depend on third party libraries (bundles). 
+   		Spring hosts Enterprise Bundle Repository (EBR) https://ebr.springsource.com/repository/app/ 
+   			where you can download many third party JARs as valid OSGi bundles.
+   		If a particular bundle is not available in Spring's EBR, there are tools that can convert regular 
+   		   JAR to a bundle JAR. One of them is Bundlor http://www.springsource.org/bundlor which can auto-generate 
+   		   MANIFEST as part of standard project lifecycle or simply convert non-bundle JAR to a bundle JAR.
+2. Boot delegation
+		Some adapters depend on extension packages that are available to the boot class loader.
+		For example; Feed Adapter depends on com.sun.syndication.feed. Since by default OSGi only
+		loads java.* from the boot class loader, other packages that must be loaded from the boot class loader 
+		can therefore be specified with the 'org.osgi.framework.bootdelegation' System property.
+		For example:
+			org.osgi.framework.bootdelegation=com.sun.*,org.w3c.*. . . .
