Gert Vanthienen commented on KARAF-564:
---------------------------------------
Yeah, I was a bit reluctant to add the extra config file to the assembly since
hardly anyone is using the features OBR support. I can obviously add it if you
want, but perhaps we should start a config-guide in the manual project that
really documents all the config PIDs and can have a description of all the
configuration options available?
> Allow configuring features OBR resolver to resolve optional imports as well

>
> In ServiceMix, we started leveraging the features OBR resolver functionality
> to avoid installing excess bundles when we combine features from other
> projects (like ActiveMQ, Camel and CXF) with our own descriptors. Some of
> our bundles have quite a few optional imports, and if we want to allow users
> to use these optional bits, we have to ensure that none of the providing
> bundles has "dependency=true" set on them. It would be nice if the OBR
> resolver itself could be configured to also look for optional imports
> instead, as this would make the features a lot easier to maintain.
