>          Issue Type: Improvement

> Currently, dependency manager is using maven-bundle-plugin 2.3.4, and felix-parent pom 1.2.0;
> So, before doing a release, we should update the poms of the DM artifacts to be released with latest parent pom (2.1) and latest maven-bundle-plugin (2.5.0).
> Notice that using parent pom 2.1 introduces an issue with the DM core: indeed, the 2.1 parent pom is using a strict java compiler compliance level to 1.3, which generates an eclipse compilation error for the "org.apache.felix.dm.tracker.ServiceTracker" class, because in the Tracked inner class, the "highestTracked" method is invoking the "size()" method, like this (line 921):
>         private ServiceReference highestTracked(long serviceId) {
>             ServiceReference result = null;
>             int max = Integer.MIN_VALUE;
>             
>             synchronized (this) {
>                 int length = size();
>                 ...
> but when using strict java 1.3 compliance, Eclipse displays a compilation error because the size() method is both declared in the AbstractTracked inherited class , as well as in the ServiceTracker enclosing class.
> One way to work around would be to modify the code like this:
>             synchronized (this) {
>                 int length = this.size();
> but I prefer to not modify the code before releasing and use a <source>1.4</source> in pom.xml, which resolves the eclipse compilation issue.
