In fact, at first I was using Karaf Cave for just this purpose. When I saw how it was relatively easy to generate the OBR metadata, that project inspired me to integrate the generation directly into Archiva.
I am not using Karaf in the particular situation where I am using OBR, which is why I couldn't use Karaf's Maven or Karaf Features repository support.
