I think I will address this issue by removing the default URL from OBR completely. Thus, if it is not configured, it won't start up with a repository.

> By default (if no repository is configured) BundleRepository uses http://oscar-osgi.sourceforge.net/obr2/repository.xml as a default repository. As Richard mentioned on the mailing list this repository is more a "didactic" repository.  Having this repo is somehow then useless and adds confusion to the unexperimented (e.g. one has a wrong spelled config "obr.repository.url". In that case the default is used => expected bundles will not be found)
> I suggest the following alternatives:
> 1. No default => fail to initialize with an misconfiguration exception
> 2. use the osgi alliance repository
> 3. use a (to be created) felix obr repository
