See UIMA-536, work for this build method is already done.
The disadvantage is that the user has to provide an eclipse
installation. This smells for trouble.
Our current main UIMA build now also needs a user-supplied eclipse
installation (although it is not platform specific), in order to build
the Eclipse update site.
The maven plugin I referenced
(http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVENUSER/Building+Eclipse+RCP+and+RCP-based+Applications
) apparently also needs an eclipse installation.
I don't know if the RCP modules are available for download from a maven
repository. Can you post the list of the bundles that are needed - then
we could help look for them :-)

I would really appreciate if we can build it with maven which
downloads dependencies from a repository.
Do you think it is possible to build it as plugin with maven ? Then I
think it is easy to package the plugin together
with the RCP stuff.
Maybe we should consider to build it manually for the coming release.
