ACK, will start working on it soon. Btw. I want to create a seperate
test bundle for JMDNS too and move the JMDNS related tests from
test.discovery there. The test.discovery tests would then test discovery
SPI independent of a specific provider. Any objections, otherwise I'd
start creating a patch?

Since jSLP and ECF is used by a product I'm working on at my day job,
count me for jSLP support.
Jan: AFAIK there are no unit tests for OSGi jSLP and the ones for the
standalone version are rather small?
Btw. if we move the jSLP sources, we must not forget about the open bugs
at sf.net. Those have to migrated as well.
