Ok, then I would be happy to hear how this works in Eclipse? Let's say that org.apache.felix.flycatcher needs jakarta-commons-net, some particular version, to compile, test and/or run and the commons-net jar will become part of the bundle. Where is the commons-net being referenced, and how does it end up on the developers machine? Perhaps I have missed some really cool features in Eclipse. > Look Jason asked for opinions on what Maven could do to improve the > building of bundles.

Personally, I had a look at Peter Kriens BND system and I liked it a lot. It allows each party to share a fairly neutral resource, whether you are/prefer an Eclipse or IDEA plugin, commandline, Ant task or Maven plugin. Cheers Niclas
