Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-3167:
---------------------------------------

Just a very stupid question: Looking for "OSGI" in Wikipedia and other pages 
does not make it more clear to me. It confuses me more - this looks to me like 
completely useless and a duplicate of what Maven provides. Why do we need it 
when we release with Maven? Just because the Eclipse Foundation does not like 
Maven and wants to use their own "standard" OSGI? We decided to use Maven for 
publishing artifacts (in addition to the source and binary TGZ files). In my 
opinion, the Eclipse Foundation should provide a "converter" that makes Maven 
artifacts available to OSGI, they cannot force every project to support just 
another framework.

My last comment: If it is only adding some static strings to the META-INF of 
every JAR, who cares? But if you need crazy magic or must upload the JAR files 
to another site on the net, I am also -1!
