Yes I view the spring style different artifactIds as a temporary thing as things make the transition to OSGi  - that would be fair to say?

Hi guys,

 From the Maven book:
"when groupId  or artifactId are different, Maven will consider this to
be two different libraries"

"The groupId or artifactId of the artifact has changed, where the
current project requires an alternately named version from a
dependency's version - resulting in 2 copies of the same project in the
classpath. Normally Maven would capture this conflict and use a single
version of the project, but when groupId  or artifactId are different,
Maven will consider this to be two different libraries."
from
http://www.sonatype.com/books/mvnref-book/reference/pom-relationships-sect-conflict.html

I've seen the classifierId for osgi dependencies of mule etc.

The maven guys are definitely taking the OSGi story serious:
http://www.sonatype.com/people/2009/03/the-future-of-maven-osgi-join-the-tycho-users-mailing-list/
and surely there must be a better way then duplicating everything under
a different groupId-artifactId like SpringSource's workaround for now?

With kind regards,
Geoffrey De Smet
