> This is more a random thought; not sure how good an idea it is yet :-)
> Here's the spec: 
> http://blog.caucho.com/?p=225
> I can see this being useful for folks hacking web apps with a ton of jars, none of which are bundles where folks just want to share some jars across web apps really easily, without having to convert things to bundles.
> So the idea would be to hack the osgi web deployer to detect the pom.xml file inside the WAR and then do an import bundle (rather than package).
> While doing modularisation the osgi way is way more powerful & granular - I can see pomegranate as a really handy tactical way to solve a valid problem in web apps - share jars easily across web apps - without any of the pain of grokking osgi metadata & converting jars to bundles etc
