It is a real OSGi bundles. The thing is not you only need to reference the felix maven plugin (see Karl Pauls' reply). But this is very easy to do. As David mentioned, they are spec jars, so basically everything will be exported without having to customize anything (eventually a few optional dependencies here and there: for example j2ee-management has an optional dependency on ejb spec imho). > > Sounds like a good start, as long as we can include the required bits as part > of our normal m2 builds. This is not a start :-) As I said, the jars would become real OSGi bundles. I will work on a small patch to help you understand what it would be, but you can look at what I've began to do for activemq: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=577760 It will be along those lines...
