It is not in the RFC-112. We decide this when developing the maven-obr-plugin. In our context, we have "non-standard" capabilities and requirements (event producers and receivers, iPOJO factories ...). OBR allow us to declare these information. So we required a way to declare all this capabilities / requirements, we have find this way : writing a project descriptor which is added to computed metadata. You have some information about this on the maven-obr-plugin documentation (http://clement.plop-plop.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=26&I temid=37) Clement
