             Summary: Create a BOM (Bill of Material) for Cellar
                 Key: KARAF-3466
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-3466
             Project: Karaf
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: cellar-core
            Reporter: Achim Nierbeck


A "Bill of Material" (BOM) contains only the dependencies of a Project, almost like a parent pom, where it doesn't contain any other build specific declarations. 
The idea behind this it is easier for other projects to depend on these dependencies and build on top of it. 
For example if one want's to add some extra Hazelcast bundles to his project the version for Hazelcast doesn't need to be configured in the project as this transitive dependency is managed by the BOM (the artifact is a regular POM though)
