Hi,

Seems reasonable to me...although I am just winging
it here. I am still not exactly sure how we are going to do this or
where these generated bundles are going to live, etc. It would be nice
if we could automatically publish them to an OBR repository some
place...something to work on for the future, I guess. :-)

To control the deployment of the bundles we use in-house, I hacked
together a bundle which implements a very simple OBR server allowing
to upload bundles and build the repository.xml file dynamically from
the list of uploaded bundles.

Here is the feature list:
 * Implemented with a Servlet frontend
 * Upload with POST
 * Generates repository.xml on-demand from the installed bundles
 * Automatic version-timestamp generation if the qualifier part of
the bundle version contains the word "SNAPSHOT"
 * Simple GUI to see the list of available bundles as well as the
details of them

To enable the automatic upload to above repository, I hacked together
a simple maven-plugin which just inspects the generated artifact to
see whether it is a bundle and uploads to a configurable location.

Could this help in any way ? - Or do such things already exist ?

Regards
Felix
