• All common felix properties have been extracted to the droolsjbpm-parent pom. Individual modules should not define any of these specifically.
• If you want to add/remove/change any of those, change them in the parent pom only:
• https://github.com/droolsjbpm/droolsjbpm-build-bootstrap/blob/master/pom.xml
  
• These are currently in the parent pom:
• <extensions>true</extensions>
• <excludeDependencies>true</excludeDependencies>
  
• <_removeheaders>Ignore-Package</_removeheaders>
• What does this mean? Christiano wants to remove this.
• @charles are you ok with removing this?
  
• <_nouses>true</_nouses>
• What does this mean? Christiano wants this.
  
• <_snapshot>${osgi-version-qualifier}</_snapshot>
• Christiano: "To make eclipse happy"
  
• <Bundle-Version>${parsedVersion.majorVersion}.${parsedVersion.minorVersion}.${parsedVersion.incrementalVersion}.${osgi.version.qualifier}</Bundle-Version>
• Christiano: "To make eclipse happy"
• There are not added (because less code is better maintainable):
  
• <DynamicImport-Package>*</> has been removed everywhere, as per Christiano's change
• @charles @christiano If you need it anyway, edit the droolsjbpm-parent pom and supply a pull request
  
• <Bundle-ActivationPolicy>lazy</> has not been added anywhere, as Charles didn't seem to need it
  
• @christiano @charles If you need it anyway, edit the droolsjbpm-parent pom and supply a pull request
• Generally, christiano's imports/export statements survived. (I found they to contain little or no dead imports/exports.)
• Some of Charles imports/export statement changes were added too.
• The original state of the imports/exports was mostly ignored as they were totally out-of-date.
• The singleton discussion is lost to me. As Charles is supplying the unit test in droolsjbpm, I believe he should make the call which modules should be singleton and which should not, taking Christiano's advice into consideration of course.
  
• Some modules currently have singleton=true, others don't. This seems to be the way you guys wanted: it's differs per module
• Pull Request to add/remove singleton as needed welcome
• Empty<Private-Package> have been removed everywhere
• <Require-Bundle> has been removed everywhere.
• This makes our build and release procedure far less complex (no more separate osgi.version property).
• Don't add it back pls: I strongly prefer it stays dead.
  

I've now spend a lot of time on drools OSGi, and I really need to focus on optaplanner issues.
Edson has agreed to look into future osgi related pull requests for drools.
