Good catch .. I thought I had included the rat plugin but it is missing.
I will add it.
Maybe we can use the aries rsa parent as a basis to discuss and develop
the new aries parent.
So we prove at rsa that it works by doing the next release with it and
then create the aries parent like it.
So I would be happy about any feedback on how to change the rsa parent
and it would also be great if everyone could
look into the upcoming release to make sure it is of good quality.

Hi guys,
I like small and simple parent poms, but they should perform a few
functions that some developers may not think about...
Just a few things that I'm thinking of:
1. API versioning baseline checks
2. Legal checks (typically done by the rat-maven-plugin)
3. Have the correct settings to do releases
4. By default don't export any packages
Looking at your parent pom, I see that you already have points 1, 3 and 4
covered. Not sure if point 2 is there right now...
In general +1 to your effort!
Cheers,
David

I think it is pretty hard to work with the current Aries parent pom.
https://github.com/apache/aries/blob/trunk/parent/pom.xml
My main issue with it is the very special definitions for the
maven-bundle-plugin. It is difficult to set up a project and it is very
easy to
end up with a broken Manifest.
So for aries-rsa I created a new parent pom and just took the necessary
minimum from the aries parent.
https://github.com/apache/aries-rsa/blob/master/parent/pom.xml
Especially for the maven-bundle-plugin I used the approach to leave the
parent at defaults. I also used the include to be able to extract the
bundle config in a separate bnd file.
This resulted in very small poms as well as bnd.bnd files in the
individual projects.
e.g.:
https://github.com/apache/aries-rsa/tree/master/topology-manager
So I would like to discuss to create a new parent pom for aries (like
3.0.0-SNAPSHOT). The main thing would be to use similar
maven-bundle-plugin settings like above but we could also revisit the
other
plugins to see if we can make them simpler.
