Roadmap for maven bundle plugin?
I recently looked into the bnd-maven-plugin from paremus. It features a
better maven lifecycle integration than the felix one.
So for example you do not need the packaging "bundle" anymore which is a
big obstacle for some projects.
It also will probably be part of the maven support for bdntools.
So I wonder what the plans for the felix maven plugin are. Will we
follow that path and also provide a similar version?
Should we at some point recommend to users to switch?

Is there an Embed-Dependency analog?

The biggest difference is that currently the bnd-maven-plugin does not support instructions within pom files (https://github.com/bndtools/bnd/issues/952) but rather only in dedicated bnd files.
Therefore for existing users of maven-bundle-plugin it is not so easy to migrate.

Hi Christian,
it sounds promising, but maybe a bit early to have a strong opinion.
From a technology standpoint, it's good to converge.
However, we talk about two different community there, and maybe license.
As a tooling, it's not a big deal.
Regards
JB

Is this the one that is 'owned' by the bndlib people, or are there
more than one?
The 'bnd' mailing list told me that it had less capability than the
maven-bundle-plugin, so that would be a reason not to retire.
I'll take on the lifecycle, but I'll make it a plugin that requires
maven 3, first. That would raise an interesting version # question.
