So, the general idea of this is to move to the BND plugin (which I'm OK with) and to address the issue of GSON unexported packages by exporting them from our jclouds-core module. That's OK for me as well. jclouds needs to be able to upgrade to newer gson versions, and this is the cleanest approach we've had so far to achieve that. If restructuring needed to accommodate the change imposes some changes in downstream projects such as karaf-jclouds integration or Brooklyn, then let it be and get those fixed as well. I think we have been very careful of not breaking stuff and bringing everyone to the same page, but we can't be blocked forever on this and pinned to the old gson library. @gurkerl83 has already stepped in and started to move forward with the modernization of the karaf-jclouds integration, which is great. I'd suggest we move forward with this PR to unblock jclouds, and anyone interested in having the Karaf and Brooklyn integration aligned with newer jclouds versions to step in and help @gurkerl83 make that happen. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
