[Emily Jiang <emijiang6@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The annotations can be only on package-info.java not on any of the APIs if the packages are consumer/provider type. Besides they are only build time annotations and we mark the dependency type as "Provided".

Thanks,

So one of the goals of the platform is to introduce a stronger semantic versioning model. The general issue and associated platform dev thread is captured in this issue:

BJ Hargrove of the Open Liberty team and OSGi working group volunteered to explore what an update of the CDI artifacts to make use of the OSGi artifacts would entail. There is no point in doing this if we have a hard stance about introducing a build time only dependency on the OSGi annotations. There is an ongoing discussion about potentially introducing a similar set of annotations in Jakarta, but any current prototype effort would have to be based on the OSGi library.

Thoughts?
