Hi all,

we worked on using geotools as an osgi bundle, but only for specific 
releases of GeoTools. The latest version for which we did this is 2.6.4. 
You can download the bundle from here:

http://svn.esdi-humboldt.eu/repo/humboldt2/trunk/hale/hale-platform/target/org.geotools/

In this folder you will also find the required configuration files 
(*.bnd) to generate the manifest using bnd. Please note that a few of 
the dependencies that gt relies on are not part of this bundle, but can 
be found in the platform as well - just browse the repository. Also note 
that the generated gt 2.6.4 also has a minor patch applied.

Hope this helps & best regards,

Thorsten
