Osgi is coming soon

About two years ago I received an email from bluedavy asking me if I could authorize him to translate the BND manual into Chinese. He explained that many people in China are using BND, however, there is a lack of relevant documentation. I am very happy to provide him with a webpage for publishing the Chinese version. The translated content looks strange. There are a lot of unfamiliar Chinese characters mixed with several familiar English words. It seems like you have met your friends in a distant and unfamiliar city. Now I have another Chinese version of osgi book.

In 1998, we started to develop osgi specifications. We did not expect a Chinese version of osgi books to be available at all, and it was earlier than the English version. When the English version is still being written, bluedavy takes the lead to complete the Chinese version, which is great. China is an emerging economic power. I believe many programmers can benefit from osgi. Osgi is a de facto modular standard. Currently, the main java application servers are running on osgi. For these huge software, modularity is no longer an optional option, but a must. Software in many fields is built on open-source products. With the continuous success of open-source projects, the functions of products become more and more complex. Just like in nature, things are always evolving, under such circumstances, we gradually realized that modularization has become a necessary condition for survival.

Osgi aims to reuse components, which is also our industry dream since the birth of computers. As one of the authors of the osgi specification, I first acknowledge that we have not yet found the Holy Grail, but I firmly believe that osgi will go further than other specifications or products. To achieve this goal, we need your help. Osgi specifications have helped the software industry create value of tens of millions of dollars. In turn, we hope that you can give feedback to Chinese user groups to support and participate in Chinese user groups, of course, it is best to become a member of the osgi alliance. The adoption of a unified modular system is crucial for raising Java to a new level. Therefore, we need your help.

Bluedavy has done a lot of work to translate osgi Core English specifications. Although I found many familiar words in the book, my Chinese skills are not enough for me to read the rest. It seems that this book is a wonderful thing that I cannot understand.
