I think Christian didn't use Cave a lot. Of course, Cave can index a
whole repository, but I can also create multiple repositories per artifact.
More over, I know jpm4j but it's another package manager: it doesn't
really solve.
I'm using Karaf + Cave a lot (with bunch of repos) and it works fine
(you can proxy artifact per repository, and I have a command to create
index XML per artifact URL).

Since maven is so widely adopted, it would be foolish to ignore. That

force Karaf users into the maven world, either.
You are right. For OSGi we need a repository with support for OSGi
metadata. Only then can we use the resolver in an efficient way.
I think an OBR like Cave is the wrong approach though. It want to
index the whole repository which does not work on the scale of maven
repos.... especially not for maven central.
Do you know JMP?
https://jpm4j.org
Perhaps this solves the problem you mention, or perhaps could provide a
little inspiration?
