Maven Bundle Plugin 2.0.0 available, but requires Java 1.5

[sebb <se...@gmail.com>]

I've been using

    mvn versions:display-plugin-updates

to show which plugins don't have versions specified.

[versions is a very useful Maven plugin]

This shows that the Bundle plugin 2.0.0 exists - we are using 1.4.3.

Now Bundle 2.0.0 requires Java 1.5, so I'm a bit wary about updating
the version, as in theory one can build http core using Java 1.4. In
practise, developers use 1.5+, so maybe this is not an issue, so would
it be  OK to update the version?

Looks very useful indeed.

maven-bundle-plugin has a regression causing compatibility issues with 
the assembly plugin. For details see this bug report

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-1262

We will have to wait for 2.0.1
