Description

The OSGi metadata for ActiveMQ should be updated to include Spring 4.X in the version range. Despite the fact that Spring no longer includes OSGi metadata in their own 4.X packages, Apache Servicemix repackages Spring 4.X so that it can be used in OSGi containers like Apache Karaf.

This change is necessary in order for projects with Spring 4.X to coexist in the same Apache Karaf container where ActiveMQ is running as a bundle/Karaf feature.

This change has already been made in the activemq-camel submodule.

I've submitted the change as a pull request on the github mirror of ActiveMQ: https://github.com/apache/activemq/pull/121
