-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello to all,
the osgi-deployment-maven-plugin has now a web-page under http://mvn-dp-plugin.sourceforge.net/. There one can find a little documentation and some examples how to use the plugin to create OSGi Deployment-Packages. Also the plugin is now synchronized with official maven repositories (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/net/sourceforge/mvn-dp-plugin/) Have fun!
