As I saw, but I did not go to much n detail, the Spring Bundle Repository is their own bundle repository, meaning that they have a directory where they and the user can store bundles depending on their type (normal bundles and PARs). I assume that they parse the metadata and use it to resolve the needed bundles. At first I was happy that they are going to use OBR, fact that will gong to give a boost to OBR but unfortunately they are not. But maybe yo can convince them to have a plug-able design and be able to switch or combine with the simple mode they have. My guess that they go for this approach as is quite simple for the end user to just put a bundle in a directory and do not edit any xml/metadata.
