Which packages of Felix do I need to get started? There are a zillion of them on the downloads page.
(p.s. is the name a reference to the Odd Couple + in contrast to OSGI's "Oscar" reference framework? this occurred to me after reading one of the tutorial pages & I got a chuckle out of it.)
You just need to download the "main" distribution at:
http://apache.mirror.clusters.cc/felix/felix-1.8.0.tar.gz
(it is the first download link)
Unzip it, enter in the felix-1.8.0 directory and type
$ java -jar bin/felix.jar
The Felix console will appear, type "help" to get started
