                 Key: SMX4KNL-25
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/SMX4KNL-25
             Project: ServiceMix Kernel
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 1.0-m3
            Reporter: Jeff Yu
             Fix For: 1.0-m3


When I saw the instruction for installing the NMR feature from the <a 
href="http://servicemix.apache.org/SMX4NMR/1-quick-start.html";>User Guide</a>. 
I think it makes us really easir to install it rather than to copy all the jars 
into the deploy folder manually. and suddenly, it occurs to me that this is 
very similar to "apt-get" utility in Ubuntu or <a 
href="http://linux.duke.edu/projects/yum/";>yum</a> utility in the Fedora distro.

Put it simply, right now what we need to install an NMR feature is:
<pre>
   features addUrl 
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/servicemix/smx4/obr-repo/features-nmr-1.0-m1.xml
   nmr
</pre>

and what I like is that we can do it like this:

<pre>
   features addUrl 
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/servicemix/smx4/obr-repo/features-nmr-1.0-m1.xml
   features install nmr
</pre>

and then we can extend following commands:
  features upgrade nmr
  features remove nmr
  features list (for browsing all available features in the repository).

in this way, we should be easily to install/remove the features, and users 
wouldn't need to consider the dependency issues.
