Hi,

Thanks for the tip. Somehow I always overlook the Enterprise specs…

I think you are right, Karaf Features are more what I want. My only problem is 
that I am using enRoute (and therefore gradle), and there does not seem to be 
any plug-in to create a Karaf Feature. To create one myself, I am discovering, 
will require me to really get into the details. My problem is time; if I had 
more time, I would be happy to do this. Since I don’t, I am looking for 
something “easy”.

Can you suggest a way (other than the maven plugin) that I can (non-manually) 
create a features file from enRoute / gradle?


Cheers,
=David
