I've committed an Eclipse UI that uses the IBundleManager and 
IServiceManager remote services [3][3a].  This includes a 'Remote 
Bundles view' for examining, starting, stopping, installing/uninstalling 
bundles, and a 'Remote Services View' for examining the services running 
in a remote framework.

See screen shots of the remote bundles view [4] and the services view 
[5].   These two examples are accessing an Eclipse endpoint...although 
they can access any OSGi runtime.
