Explore the task of creating an OSGi bundle for the maven-embedder
------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: MNG-1064
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1064
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: Task
  Components: maven-embedder  
 Reporter: Jason van Zyl
    Priority: Minor


 It would be easier to update maven-embedder component if it would be packaged 
as an OSGi bundle.

There are two options. We can create our own wrapper ourselves. Here is 
manifest for such case:

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Bundle-ManifestVersion: 2
Bundle-Name: Maven 2.x Embedder Plug-in
Bundle-SymbolicName: org.maven.ide.embedder
Bundle-Version: 2.0.0.beta3
Bundle-Vendor: maven.org
Bundle-Localization: plugin
Bundle-ClassPath: maven-embedder-2.0-beta-3-SNAPSHOT-dep.jar

Or it would be better if maven-embedder will be a bundle itself.

For a second option the biggest issu is version convention between Maven and 
OSGi. Eclipse require version in form of "x.x.x' and then you can optionally 
use format like "x.x.x.freeform".
