Hi Timothy,
This sounds very good. Wouldn't it be much better if this plugin is hosted
under official M2 tree or here in Felix? WDYT?
Hmmm... the archetype project is hosted at Felix...

Folks,
How-To
======
To use the OSGi archetype to kickstart your next OSGi/Maven2 bundle
development project, perform the following steps:
(1) fetch the osgi-archetype project from the Felix repo at [2]
(2) install the osgi-archetype plugin by executing the following from
the root of the osgi-archetype directory:
mvn clean install
(3) navigate to the directory where you wish to create your new OSGi
bundle project and execute the following:
mvn archetype:create -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.felix.archetypes
-DarchetypeArtifactId=osgi-archetype -DarchetypeVersion=1.0
-DgroupId=<your project group ID> -DartifactId=<your project artifact ID>
(4) navigate to the subdirectory just created (named after your
artifactId specified), and execute the following to build your OSGi
bundle:
mvn package
(5) navigate to the subdirectory named 'target' and you'll see the your
bundle jar (named after the artifactId specified). deploy this to your
OSGi container such as Oscar (or Felix). A working bundle out of the box!
(6) Modify the Activator code, add your additional bundle classes, and
modify the POM to customize the manifest entries to complete your bundle
development.
