We are looking to move up the Jetty 9 for Equinox.  But from the perspective of the http service impl in Equinox it is expected to work across multiple container implementations and Servlet specification levels.  Jetty 9 is attractive for several reasons as you mentioned.  Another benefit is to make sure the http service works on the latest spec release of Servlet.

WRT to plans.  The move to jetty 9 can happen at anytime, but need someone to step up to do the work.  Last I checked we do have some initial work done in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=401784 but need someone to dust that one off and see if it is in shape to get into Mars.  The R6 impl of Http Whiteboard specification is coming along, but realistically it probably will not be ready until M4.

Thanks Thomas.  As an Equinox incubator committer I could possibly help out with some of this, if desired.
