Ted Kirby updated GERONIMODEVTOOLS-658:
---------------------------------------

    Description: 
update the plugin to accommodate new requirements.

1) Eclipse on Mac
There are two edition of eclipse on Mac, carbon and cocoa. From Eclipse 3.6,  
only cocoa is supported. But maven-eclipsepde-plugin can only recognize carbon 
eclipse on Mac, so we have to fix it to make GEP build successfully on Mac. You 
may see details in GERONIMODEVTOOLS-649.

2)Optional bundles
There are some optional required bundles in MANIFEST.MF for some extended 
functions, such as TPTP and Free Aires Tools. They're not mandatory for GEP and 
actually GEP don't need these bundles in build process. They're marked as 
"optional" because user may get these extra plugins by themselves for some 
advanced functions. So these optional bundles shouldn't block the build process 
of GEP. Unfortunately, current maven-eclipsepde-plugin does block GEP build 
process because of these optional bundles.

Completed last sentence in 1) with what I think is the proper value:
