Yes, I'm planning to do this in the next phase. This requires the following steps:
1) Osgify all third-party dependencies of Geotools that cannot be downloaded from public OSGi-Maven repositories. (So far, I needed to do this for geoapi, jai.imageio, jsr275 and vecmath.) 2) Find a public Maven repository for deploying these osgified versions. 3) Change the Geotools POMs to depend only on the OSGified versions of third-party libs. 4) Change the maven-archiver configuration for Geotools to include my handcrafted OSGi manifests into the JARs. 5) Deploy the OSGified Geotools artifacts to a public Maven repository, taking care to avoid conflicts with the official versions. So it's rather an organizational than a development effort. It would be great if we could deploy the artifacts to the Refractions Maven repo, rather than creating a new one. BerliOS is fine for hosting the souce repositories, but they do not currently support Maven. You can only create releases in big zip files as on SourceForge. I guess you could set up your own Maven repo in the webspace reserved for your project, but that's limited to 100 MB...
