Thanks for all the suggestions. The maven-bundle-plugin is what I am using right now but it only provides means of creating and maintaining an OSGi infrastructure, not reausing the meat information from OSGi, which is what I am looking for. Both Tycho and Sigil look very promising but for my scenario they both have the same problem: Missing maven 2 integration (Tycho only works with maven 3 and even ships it with the downloadable). I am working in the enterprise area and things there are moving at glacial speed. We will be stuck with maven 2 for quite some time and if I want to get OSGi into our projects I will have to integrate everything with the existing architecture which is maven 2 + hudson.
