I'm curious if anyone has had the chance to look at the patch submitted for FELIX-219.

It adds the install and install-file goals to the default lifecycle so that the maven-bundle-plugin creates/updates an OBR repository file. This allows the local maven repository to also be an OBR.

It seems to be a painless way to add very convenient functionality.
- I just build my bundles with the updated maven-bundle-plugin
- Start felix with -Dobr.repository.url=file://${HOME}/.m2/repository/repository.xml
- Open the OBR in the shellGUI
- Select my desired bundle
- Click on the "Deploy & start" button
Felix then uses the OBR to find and resolve all the dependencies and start my application.
