well ideally the original project would add the necessary OSGi
metadata in their next release - the Felix "commons" project is
really only meant to be a stop-gap until that happens, and as I
mentioned before, there are some issues with us re-releasing
artifacts from other projects (ie. naming, versioning, licenses)

if the original project sees a demand for OSGi and makes such
a release, then this saves us from having to maintain and track
their project - which benefits everyone

so please let them know :)
