Description

We have examples for spring, ds and OSGi APIs. The DS examples use handwritten DS xml. The Greeter examples use a Swing UI and a quite complicated interaction.

This does not really make it easy for the user to understand how to use CXF DOSGi.

So I will first move all examples to annoation based DS which is the simplest way of exposing OSGi services. I am sure the users can translate those simple examples to other DI frameworks.

As a second step I would like to replace the greeter examples with something simpler.

I think we really need 2 examples as a base:
1. SOAP example using DS
2. REST example using DS

The examples should be able to show local discovery as well as zookeeper based discovery.

This shows the main usages of CXF-DOSGi. Later we also need to show
how to use additional CXF features and security.
