Nice :)
You might want to ping the Felix team as they were looking to set one
up at Apache. Depending on what they need, we can host it on an
existing instance or help them set one up.

Hey guys,
I started some work on building an OBR repository consumer that will
produce a repository.xml file in the root of the managed repositories.
For those who don't know OBR is the OSGi Bundle Repository [1]. The
repository.xml (or .zip) describes the bundles, their locations and
versions that are available in the repository (or a remote one for
that matter).
OSGi bundles deployed using Maven to Archiva (or simply placed in
the repository) should then be made almost immediately available via
OBR clients.
Anyway, this should give us the basis for excellent support in
Archiva OSGi. Atlassian plan to use Archiva as the platform for
serving plugins and their dependent OSGi bundles - which is really
cool :)
Anyone have any thoughts, questions?
Cheers,
James
