Description
"Starting with the R6 release of the OSGi Declarative Services and Metatype specification, the official annotations support the same features as the Apache Felix SCR annotations in a more elegant manner and even provide additional functionality. Therefore the Apache Felix SCR annotations are now in maintenance mode and therefore you should rather use the official annotations. The Apache Felix maven-bundle-plugin, version 3.0.1 or higher supports those directly and there is no need for an additional plugin anymore." See link
Moreover, in maven-bundle-plugin, versions lower than 3.0.1 does not support Java11. So upgrading to Java 11 would mean upgrading maven-bundle-plugin, which in turn means abandoning Felix SCR and using recommended OSGi SCR.
Task: Remove Felix SCR and replace it with OSGi v6 SCR in the Java 11 branch and use officially recommended annotations.

We are using OSGI core and compendium versions 1.0 the Java 11 branch. Not sure about the Java 1.8 branch (master).
Today will look at if there is a later version we should use for the Java 11 branch.
Below are one of the errors that I have come across while trying to run the IGB project in Java 11 in development mode.
java: cannot find symbol
symbol: method <java.lang.String>newConcurrentHashSet()
location: class com.google.common.collect.Sets
The reason for this is instead of using guava 31.1 Sets class, the project points to google-collection-1.0 Sets.
Moving the issue to IGBF-3371
