> The eosgi plugin used by jena-osgi-test to run the tests within an OSGi container is licensed as LGPL.
> As an optional LGPL dependencies only used for running the test, this is nominally allowed within Apache, but this is a thin line, and it would be cleaner to avoid the dependency altogher - so that we can include jena-osgi-test in the general "complete" profile.

> An alternative (this task) is to use the PAX Exam system instead. (supposedly Apache licensed) It is probably good to allow jena-osgi-test to still test against multiple OSGi implementations as of today.
