First access to "Bundles" web console tab takes a long time if the server has 
no internet access

                 Key: FELIX-738
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-738
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Web Console
         Environment: Linux box without internet access (firewalled intranet)
            Reporter: Mike Pfaff
            Priority: Minor


Log entries:
[...]
RepositoryAdminImpl: Exception creating repository - java.net.ConnectException: 
Operation timed out
RepositoryAdminImpl: Ignoring repository 
http://oscar-osgi.sourceforge.net/obr2/repository.xml
[...]

I know that the repo URL is outdated, but even with the new URL 
http://felix.apache.org/obr/releases.xml we would have the same problem, as the 
box has no internet access.

Possible solutions and ideas:
- Make it possible to disable the lookup and/or the entire "bundle repository"  
bundle by some config value.
- Set the timeout to a lower value (maybe 5 or 10 seconds)
- Is it really necessary for the "bundle repository" bundle to access the repo 
URL when you go to the "Bundle" web console tab? (It makes sense for the "OSGi 
Repository" web console tab).
- Stopping/Uninstalling the "bundle repository" bundle poses some kind of 
chicken/egg problem, as one would have to use the "Bundle" web console tab - 
which is where the problem occurs - for that.
