Description

The jre-1.6.properties and jre-1.7.properties files in trunk ( http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/sling/trunk/launchpad/base/src/main/resources/ ) are missing most of the new Java 6/7 packages.

The 1.6.properties is basically a copy of the 1.5.properties file plus a couple of additional (annotation, lang.model, script, tools) packages. The 1.7.properties adds javax.swing.plaf.nimbus compared to the 1.6.properties. But most of the other javax packages (like jws, xml, activation - and all of their sub-packages) are missing in both files.

I found a more accurate list in the jre-1.6/jre-1.7 sections of http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/felix/trunk/framework/src/main/resources/default.properties (these lists are just missing org.w3c.dom.css, org.w3c.dom.html, org.w3c.dom.ranges, org.w3c.dom.stylesheets,org.w3c.dom.traversal,org.w3c.dom.xpath).

I suggest to update these files accordingly.

As a workround one can take the source of a framework-extension-* bundle and modify as needed. (Modification needed because they are a) also missing some packages and b) they are not Java version specific.)
