Hi Jeremias,
Here the Netbeans DIFF with your patch adapted for the latest trunk version.
Please review and respond if similar changes might be possible for the other
ODF Toolkit components.
Thanks,

> This feature was already last year briefly discussed on the list and as it
> basically only needs new manifest entries easily editable by our pom.xml, it
> seems to be a low hanging fruit for us!
> Taking our general test driven approach, we might want to need a test first,
> telling us, that our current odfdom.jar is no OSGi package and apply the
> manifest entries afterwards.
> Two approaches seems reasonable and should be investigated:
> http://www.aqute.biz/Code/Bnd
> or
> Pax Exam

> an integration testing framework for OSGi, which might help us as well on
> integration testing.
> NOTE: Currently the JUnit tests work on the class files not on JAR and tests
> requiring access to the manifest (within the JAR) fail, as it is not in a
> directory aside, but only in the JAR.
> To become a good OSGi package there are in addition to the manifest entries
> some basic rules for OSGi packages, which might help us as well in general.
> For instance the lately discussed semantic of versioning numbers.
> See
> http://www.osgi.org/wiki/uploads/Links/SemanticVersioning.pdf
> I am curious, if there are more useful rules for ODFDOM suggested by OSGi.
> If someone is curious to dive into this, I would love to get some feed-back
> on the above given approaches (pro/con) and/or just review some patch given.
> Cheers,
> Svante
