>  It would be easier to update maven-embedder component if it would be packaged as an OSGi bundle.
> There are two options. We can create our own wrapper ourselves. Here is manifest for such case:
> Manifest-Version: 1.0
> Bundle-ManifestVersion: 2
> Bundle-Name: Maven 2.x Embedder Plug-in
> Bundle-SymbolicName: org.maven.ide.embedder
> Bundle-Version: 2.0.0.beta3
> Bundle-Vendor: maven.org
> Bundle-Localization: plugin
> Bundle-ClassPath: maven-embedder-2.0-beta-3-SNAPSHOT-dep.jar
> Or it would be better if maven-embedder will be a bundle itself.
> For a second option the biggest issu is version convention between Maven and OSGi. Eclipse require version in form of "x.x.x' and then you can optionally use format like "x.x.x.freeform".
