3rd paragraph

Hello,

Although strictly speaking it is not an error, I think it would be easier for the reader if the code examples on p.21 3rd paragraph ff. would use the same Activator class name so that it reads:

Bundle-Activator: com.example.osgi.ExampleActivator

The activator itself could be implemented as follows:

import org.osgi.framework.BundleActivator;
import org.osgi.framework.BundleContext;

public class ExampleActivator implements BundleActivator {

Boxes text area on Using Repositories to Find Bundles

At page 29, there is text written on using repositories to Find Bundles. This text has 2 things which don't work atm:
1) Can't use the described way to configure a repo: "A repository can be configured in Bndtools using the Bndtools -> Open ext/repositories.bnd. This might be caused by an updated Bndtools version?
2) the URL to reach the online repos at the Amdatu website reaches a 404. I don't know how to fix or find the plugin section now, since the current Amdata site doesn't explicitly name a section like this.

Thanks,
