Ioannis Canellos commented on KARAF-257:
----------------------------------------
Feature now has two new properties Description (as an attribute on feature
element) and details as nested element inside feature element.
Example:
<feature name='aries-tx' description="Transaction Manager OSGi Service"
version='0.2-incubating'>
<details>The Aries JTA project will focus on making container managed
transactions available as OSGi services.</details>
<bundle>mvn:org.apache.aries.transaction/org.apache.aries.transaction.blueprint/0.2-incubating</bundle>
<bundle>mvn:org.apache.aries.transaction/org.apache.aries.transaction.manager/0.2-incubating</bundle>
</feature>
The description (short) is display by features:list command.
The details is desplayed by the features:info command.
I will leave this issue open for a week or so, in case we want to add
additional functionality around this.
> Features - Add description attribute and have it listed in the features
> overview

> It would be nice if the features had a description attribute so you can type
> in some information which the end user can see when the features is listed in
> the console.
> Maybe even have 2 attributes so you can have a brief summary and a more
> detailed description. in the XML the detailed description could be a sub
> element.
> This allows to refer to any additional documentation or important information
> the end user may need to know when using that feature
