I gave a short presentation about Google Guice and OSGi at Deutsche Post Com GmbH (in German language). You can download the PDF file of my presentation from the link below: Dependency Management for Developers - An Introduction (PDF file) The second part of my presentation (also in German language) about Spring dm for OSGi and SpringSource dm Server can be downloaded from the link below: Spring dm for OSGi and SpringSource dm Server - An Introduction (PDF file) I will also upload the whole examples in form of Eclipse workspaces, so stay tuned! Have fun! Lofi.
