Konrad Windszus updated FELIX-5925:
-----------------------------------
    Description: 
It would be nice to also have a check in 
https://github.com/apache/felix/tree/trunk/tools/osgicheck-maven-plugin for 
packages with a dedicated version which do not explicitly state, whether they 
are provider or consumer type. Although there is a default (ConsumerType) as 
specified in 
https://osgi.org/javadoc/osgi.annotation/7.0.0/org/osgi/annotation/versioning/ProviderType.html
 it is reasonable to enforce a conscious decision (i.e. an explicit annotation) 
for the following reasons:
- people tend to forget to think about this for new API/SPI
- the default used to be different with the same-named bnd annotation in the 
past therefore relying on the default is very error prone
