Hi Christian,
There is a bug about this issue
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=471373
From the message
https://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/dash-dev/msg01348.html, you will
understand why synchronization from repo.eclipse.org
<http://repo.eclipse.org> to maven central is in a stale state.
However, it is perfectly possible for a project to publish directly to
Maven central. Californium project is about to do that
(https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=468448)
If the equinox devs would like to publish their bits to
repo.eclipse.org <http://repo.eclipse.org> or gpg sign their artifacts
to publish them to maven central, I can help with that.
Is there any interest from equinox team in publishing bits to maven repos?
As Christian said, ECF is providing an R6 OSGi Remote Services/RSA
distribution for Apache Karaf [1]. We currently create a maven repo
ourselves as part of our releases [2].
ECF RS/RSA has deps on 4 equinox bundles, however:
o.e.equinox.common
o.e.equinox.concurrent
o.e.core.jobs
o.e.equinox.supplement
As I understand, these are part of the equinox sdk. Given this, I
suppose we are asking to publish the equinox sdk as maven repo, ideally
through maven central but repo.eclipse.org would be ok too.
Thanks,
Scott

I am currently helping Scott Lewis to bring ECF to Apache Karaf.
Our biggest problem with this is that ECF needs a bunch of equinox
bundles that are not available in maven central.
See this
http://download.eclipse.org/rt/ecf/3.10.0/site.p2/karaf4-min-features.xml
At the moment we use http urls to be able to get at least started.
These urls are not really good for people inside bigger companies though.
Often these companies do not allow direct access to the internet even
for developers and especially for production machines. So accessing
the urls is not possible.
Additionally they are not cached like mvn urls. So every clean
startup of karaf hits the p2 repo server again.
It also makes it very hard for people to use these artifacts in non
tycho builds which are very common outside the eclipse world.
I have noticed that eclipse already hosts several maven repositories
for other projects. Would it be possible to also deploy equinox
bundles into such a repository or even better into maven central?
At apache this is very convenient. We have a nexus server at apache
and the project poms are set up to deploy their for snapshots and
releases there. Releases go to a staging repo automatically and after
the vote you just need to press a publish button and the artifacts go
to maven central.
I am pretty sure we can organize to help with this if eclipse would
be interested to also get such a setup.
The collaboration between eclipse projects and apache projects is
still quite slim unfortunately. I think one big reason for this is
the separate repository systems that make it very difficult to use
projects from each other. So I think tackling this problem would help
a lot to improve collaboration.
I have read in another thread that this would be a "complicated"
problem. Unfortunately there is no further information what the
obstacles are. I spoke to quite some people at eclipse about this and
they are all quite interested in maven deployments. So I think at the
minimum there should be an open discussion so people understand where
we are with this. Is there some place maybe on bugzilla where I can
read into what was discussed about this?
