I am somthing confused about the recent activity for converting bundles for common libraries like apache-commons and (for example that one I thought to contribute the bundle for) junit.

But typing "junit" into the OBR Search gets more bundles (with very different version numbering) than we might need. (is there any real difference between the knoplerfish,equinox or felix bundles? It shouldn't if I understand osgi R4 correcly)

The only difference is, we need a pom, to get that working with maven.
But is (as Peter Kriens noticed in this newsgroup recently) that really what we want to do manually? How about fetching the bundles and (more important) the manifest and generate the pom on-demand if needed. (so we would have a third version of the maven-bundle plugin;-)

Does the OBR have some kind of webservice API to access it?

You seem do be doing all right :-) I have just fixed the NPE, sorry.
Never crossed my mind there could be no manifest ... Should be online
tomorrow.

Thanks.

I have a new question. Can I use Include-Resource to copy a file directly from the library jar to the bundle or is that not possible?

Here's a specific example. I want to copy META-INF/LICENSE.txt, META-INF/mailcap.default, and META-INF/mimetypes.default from activation-1.1.jar into the generated bundle jar. Can I use Include-Resource to copy it directly or do I have to unzip activation-1.1.jar first? If I have to unzip first, how do I do that in Maven? (Sorry for the newbie Maven question.)

Tim
