Creating a central Maven repository for OSGi bundles
There are some initiatives like Apache Felix about repackaging
libraries from the maven repository until projects themselves include
the OSGi manifest.
It makes sense in the meantime to have a Maven repo with same
structure but with OSGi bundles. This repo would be temporal and
things could change over the time until it's stable.
There was already a temporal repo from eclipse installation in
http://repo1.maven.org/eclipse/ Artifacts there can go into central
with one change, bundle id = groupId + artifactId, meaning that they
are going to be stored in the repo with different name than they are
in the eclipse installation.
eg. org.eclipse.equinox.common will be group=org.eclipse.equinox artifact=common
About infrastructure, we'd need to know if maven.org has enough
bandwidth to host it or we need to look for alternatives. I'm gonna
run it also through infra@apache to see if we can have apache
artifacts in apache machines and sync as we do with the usual maven
repo.

this is going to be a "beta" so i wanted to make clear the distinction
between central where nothing can change and the OSGi repo where we
will be mostly testing the definitive stuff

Is this going to result in a copy of all the artifacts with added
bundled metadata?
Will the structure will be same? Just wondering if the bundles should
just be included in the main repository with a classifier.

It processes all jar artifacts contained in a repo.
So if the repo it points to contains the whole maven repo, it will do
the whole thing.

there's already a bundleall goal in the felix bundle plugin that will
generate osgi bundles for each dependency in the tree
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-199
are you processing the whole repo or just a tree of dependencies

Hi Carloz,
Just in case you need a mojo to process the repository,
I'm almost done with this RPM Factory mojo.
I'm going to use it to RPM the maven repository, but
with a little modification, it could be used to create and add
manifests to all the jars in the maven repository as well.
I'll probably have the RPM factory in my sandbox tomorrow some time,
if you are interested.
Cheers,
- Ole

I know, infra would need to be involved if we want to create an apache
repo to sync to central repo as we do right now with
http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-ibiblio-rsync-repository/ so apache
people can publish there directly, specially thinking about bundles
made by felix

repo1.maven.org is currently not ASF infrastructure. It is a setup run
by Jason van Zyl, a Maven committer.
You would be best off, as you have already, taking this to dev@maven
rather than infra@ who would not have anything to say on the subject at
this point in time.
