Hi Sam, My two cents: It seems like OSGi and Maven would be enough. I don't think any other non-IDE system is widely used. I assume Sun will have NetBeans working with JSR-277 modules in short order. I don't think its important to spend a lot of time making JSR-277 interoperate with a lot of other systems. It should be the other way around.
