Well, they must have sources unless somebody out there is writing byte-code by hand ;) The problem is that the "eclipse:to-maven" goal doesn't convert the sources. There appears to be an interesting project called "maven-osgi-repo" [1] which can claims to support the conversion of Eclipse source bundles as well. It doesn't say anything about JavaDoc, but that should be doable once the source is there. Looking into my Eclipse "plugins" folder, there are some bundles that have a companion "source" bundle, and others that do not. It may be possible to set up an Eclipse target definition that includes all the bundles required by TextMarker including their source bundles. I don't know if source bundles are available for all of these bundles, though. The next sensible steps would be to get a target platform set up, try the maven-osgi-repo, and hope all the sources are available and all the bundles are convertible. If that works out, something would need to be done to build the JavaDoc artifacts. Ant may come in handy. Anybody is welcome to step in and try things. Otherwise, I'll keep this on the back burner, getting back to it as time permits and of course posting any news.
